by Lacoste Fragrances
Eau de Lacoste Sensuelle is a creamy, gourmand fragrance built around a warm nougat note, softened by pink pepper and subtle florals like sweet pea and Turkish rose. The opening is fresh and slightly spicy with black currant and pink pepper, which quickly evolves into a smooth, nutty-sweet heart. The drydown reveals a soft amber base layered with creamy nougat and faint musky warmth, creating a deeply sensual yet restrained aroma. It wears as a quiet, elegant presence with moderate projection, making it ideal for cooler seasons and evening use. Many describe it as a feminine, mature gourmand — not cloying or synthetic — with qualities that evoke luxury, comfort, and quiet allure. Though noted for its longevity on clothing, skin performance varies, with some finding it brief and others delighted by its lasting, intimate sillage. Strong likenesses to Mon Guerlain and YSL Manifesto highlight its refined sweetness, while the initial green or herbal facets (from gladiolus or black currant) may be sharp or unusual for some. Overall, it embodies a sophisticated, wearable sweetness that stands out without being loud.
