Perfumery is an art whose primary ambition is to evoke emotions. As such, fragrances often tell us stories. This time, it is precisely with that intent that Lacoste decided to create a duo of fragrances available in both masculine and feminine versions.
The house Lacoste has always represented the sporting spirit, both in its creations and in its fragrances. Nevertheless, in 2016, it seems to want to associate its name with more sensual and feminine fragrances, drawing us into a mysterious game of seduction. At once elegant and simple, Eau de Lacoste L12.12 pour Elle Magnetic proves wonderfully sensual and delicate. Its primary ambition is to highlight all the assets of women. Eau de Lacoste L12.12 pour Elle Magnetic is considered a fragrance that is both fruity and sensual.
Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Pour Elle Magnetic, fresh and sensual notes
The famous crocodile house therefore decided to change register and take on that of seduction. To do so, it devised a bold composition that opens on a fruity combination full of citrus, namely orange, clementine and mango. The heart of Eau de Lacoste L12.12 pour Elle Magnetic is softer and more floral thanks to the presence of jasmine, rose and violet flower, paired with heliotrope for even more lightness. The violet flower is an herbaceous plant native to Europe. It generally grows in cool woods and is often confused with pansies. In perfumery, violet is highly prized, mainly in floral fragrances. From the violet flower, the leaves are distilled rather than the flower itself. The scent of the violet flower can also be reproduced identically through synthetic molecules. The violet flower gives off powdery, iris-like, floral and green tonalities all at once. As for heliotrope, it is a perennial plant that generally takes the form of a bush. Usually blue or white in color, heliotrope has been used in perfumery since the nineteenth century. It lends compositions sweet, balsamic, light, yet also vanilla-like notes. Finally, the base evolves toward an ultra sensual and decidedly addictive character. To achieve this, it combines patchouli, tonka bean and a touch of vanilla.
The iconic Lacoste bottle remains the star of its Eau Magnetic pour Elle
The house's iconic bottle is still at the heart of the composition. Just as elegant and clean-lined as ever, the bottle has been slightly reworked for its Eau Magnetic. Also true to the house, the little crocodile sits proudly on the front of the bottle, as full of energy as ever. Here, the bottle takes on an ultra feminine color, made of sparkling violet pink. Its cap, in the same color, is slightly transparent and reveals an ultra contemporary spray bottle. Between modernity and classicism, the Lacoste bottle too adapts to the sporting house's new style.
The house Lacoste wanted, with Eau de Lacoste L12.12 pour Elle Magnetic, to surprise its fans. If it departs from its sporting line, it is today to offer a sensual and delicate feminine fragrance. The bright pink bottle displays an effect that is both magnetic and adorably girly.
