I got this for my then fiance who HATES strong scents. In the past I've purchased Burberry for him and he doesn't wear it. He threw out the Armani scents because they were too strong. It is a challenge to find him anything he will wear other than Clinque Happy for Men. I was looking to buy him a wedding scent, something he doesn't usually wear, and went to Nordstrom's. Every scent the saleslady offered was too strong, too woodsy, too musky, too everything my husband can't stand. Then she sprayed this scent and I knew it was the one. It is very light and simple, not in the least bit overpowering, and he loves it. Now he wears it daily, even on the weekends! It has some "time release" system that does somehow work, because the scent still smells good in the late evening, despite putting it on early in the am. The main notes are tangerine, bergamot, tomato leaves, cassis, black pepper, rose, patchouli, sandalwood and wood accord. I know that sounds like a weird combination, but it works! This is a great scent for a guy who doesn't want to overpower the room, but wants to smell good all day.

Lacoste Essential is an amazing scent. I have recieved quite a few compliments regarding this fragrance, the main tone of this cologne (haha, that rhymes..) is because one of the main ingredients is pepper (seriously). After the main, spicy tone, it fades off into a light-semi citrus end-note.
The cologne is perfect for spring into summer time, especially when you sweat. Why when you sweat? Lacoste Essential is probably one of the ONLY colognes in the world that uses a technology (forgive me, the name escapes me) in which it reactivates itself when body temperature goes up. It has a life of about 3-5 hours before it begins to fade, however, say you use this cologne, and after a few hours, begin to sweat, or get heated up by any event, the cologne will re-activate and the scent will return like it was sprayed not too long ago. Works GREAT for athletes or for those who work outside, even the nervous types will find this technology very useful. Don't forget, the scent of any cologne is amplified by each person's individual scent! I would definatley recommend this.

This is my favorite scent by far. It isn't overpowering, and smells divine. It lasts well into the day with just a spritz. It is worth every penny.

Love this scent,this has to be the best kept secret on the market.Good for any occasions.

I've used this cologne before and I have a bottle now. There is a reason why. It smells darn good. It reminds people of summer (which happens to be the perfect time to wear it, but it is just as good in the winter).

It smells clean and fresh as if you just dumped a vat of AXE body-wash on yourself. I'd highly recommend this product for all the guys out there. One spritz is enough, point at neck, shoot, get hickies (oooh yea!).

I don't usually wear cologne but when I first smelt this, it was amazing. The unique smell was fresh and light, but lasted almost the whole day. Only one spray was needed. If you don't like cologne with a spicy heavy sent, this is the one to wear.

This was a smooth purchase. I already liked the Lacoste fragrance and had purchased it in the past, but the seller was excellent and delivery went well. I would purchase from them again...

gotten compliments on this scent..and it lasts for a good 6 hours. good summer fragrance and sprays good and solid bottle. great buy for the price here on amazon !

I left this user a bad rating but it turns out it was something out of their control so I would give this user a rating of 5 and they even gave me a credit for bad experience

Light scent, tried at the gym and no complaints. I've asked women if they like it and they do! I only use a squirt, it does seem to reactivate with activity(sweat). Can be worn day or night, fresh smell, not perfumy (is that a word? Well you know what I mean). Bought the small bottle so I can take it on a plane in my carry-on (under 4 ozs.).
