Eau de Lacoste L.12.12. Noir Lacoste Fragrances for men, Totally love this! Only thing I’d want to see improved is projection. Opening surprisingly had a lot of tonka in it for me (I’m guessing I’m getting this from the Cashmeran and the other base note that’s very musky/vanilla – the two things I always end up associating with tonka in fragrances), which I wasn’t expecting based on reviews.
But, The watermelon focus edged into a really fresh scent – verbena always gives me a citrusy vibe since it is commonly paired with lemon, and my skin tends to pick up even the smallest iota of lavender in a fragrance, so those come through as well. The chocolate is not gourmand as it is almost earthy: I get a sweetness from the watermelon/chocolate combo, sure, but it’s not cloying. Ultimately, a more unique summer fragrance, and one that I want to add to my collection for sure.

However, Eau de Lacoste L.12.12. Noir Lacoste Fragrances for men, This has a really fresh,sporty transparent opening that eventually dries down to a nicely blended scent of watermelon,chocolate and lavender.
For example, This scent although kind of generic is a scent that really stuck out to me and watermelon,chocolate, and lavender doesn’t sound like it goes together but Lacoste definitely made it work.
1 thing that did disappoint me was I was hoping the chocolate in this was richer but instead its kind of similar to a dark transparent musk.
With that said, it’s still a very nice scent and I really enjoy this scent and I’d say it’s my 2nd favorite scent from Lacoste with my favorite being Lacoste essential Sport. ( Also if you liked Dark Temptation from Axe and wanted to upgrade this would be a perfect scent)
In addition, Eau de Lacoste L.12.12. Noir Lacoste Fragrances for men, Performance was only average— it lasts 3-6 hours and projects average as well… Also a downside to this is in the mid I get some weird note that reminds me of a taco truck….lol.
But in the drydown that goes away. Overall rating—7.5 out of 10 ! Unique scent that I will definitely wear when I want a freshie that’s a little different but I can only give this a like as it’s not 1 of my all time favs.
