About this item
Polo inspired freshness gets darkened into something more unexpected in Eau De Lacoste L.12.12 Noir Cologne, the brand's edgier take on its own signature. Watermelon opens the composition entirely on its own, juicy and slightly sweet in a way rarely seen in men's fragrance top notes. Verbena, basil, and lavender carry the heart, herbal and green, tempering that initial sweetness with real freshness. Coumarin, cashmeran, patchouli, and dark chocolate resolve into a rich, gourmand base that feels surprisingly bold for the brand's typically understated reputation. As a fruity gourmand aromatic fragrance, this cologne suits both daytime wear and evening plans, versatile enough to bridge casual and slightly dressed up occasions. Lacoste built L.12.12 Noir for men who want a sportswear brand's ease combined with added depth, offering an unexpectedly rich fragrance from a house better known for effortless simplicity. Its unusual gourmand base gives it noticeably longer wear than most sport inspired colognes.
