Lacoste's Essential is in essence, UNPRETENTIOUS. And that's what I like most about it.

This is yet another product that has virtually nothing to commend it beyond the top notes. A moderately pleasing, fruit laden opening is all you will get for your money, the remainder of Essential is anything but. As I pound on the door, desperately looking for the heart and base notes, Essential hides behind the sofa pretending to be out. This kind of fragrance is irritating, a waste of time and money.

Unessential.
God, I grew tired of this one so quickly! Fruity with a rose heart note. Big freakin' deal. So boring I began to have nightmares where I dreamt that John Varvatos was a bold, original, masterpiece and Platinum Egoiste was much too subtle, refined and elegant. Man, that was scary!

Well, I promise you that you won't offend anyone. Perfect for a nice day at the office, or a nice walk in the park with your dog, or perhaps a nice round of golf with some pot-bellied buddies.

I don't think I really care for this one.
It's not awful, just whitebread bland. Pass the mayo, and order the de-caf.

I really love this. It is perfect for the summertime, it makes me want to go out and enjoy the day. I think this is very woodsy and crisp on me. It lasts quite awhile on me and I enjoy it immensely.

I'm going to judge this for what it is. A great scent for a summer day, on the gold course, walk in the park. I wouldn't be ashamed to wear for a casual night out either. Think spring and new beginings!
