Lacoste
L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense
At the end of their sports career, top-level athletes are systematically forced to think about a career change. This was already the case for René Lacoste, in the 1920s. Ingenious and bold, he then gave birth to one of the greatest fashion brands on the planet, by modernizing the tennis player's T-shirt. This is how the very first Lacoste polo shirt appeared, in 1927. Since 2011, it has also inspired the creation of a fragrance collection. This is how Lacoste presents its feminine essence L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense, released in 2023.

When the Lacoste polo shirt gives rise to a fragrance
On the tennis courts, René Lacoste was nicknamed “the crocodile”. Indeed, he was an outstanding player, endowed with extraordinary determination. It was thus quite natural for him to draw inspiration from this reptile to make it the logo of his clothing brand. The crocodile is therefore naturally found on the bottle of Lacoste L.12.12. What is more, it is not the only element of this legendary T-shirt to inspire this fragrance. Indeed, in its time, the Lacoste polo shirt revolutionized fashion. It offered men and women greater ease and true freedom of movement. It is therefore also all this energy that is found in Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense. It is a fragrance for women made of vitality. With it, reinvent your own rules and display your uniqueness! Be yourself, with confidence, boldness and dynamism! Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense seems designed to allow you to reveal your full potential.
Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense, a very fresh composition
Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense was created by perfumers Caroline Dumur and Fanny Bal. To echo the sporty dynamism, they opted for an intensely fresh scent. However, to reveal the unique character of each woman, it is also very contrasted. Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense brings together warmer and cooler elements. It all begins with a burst of absolute brightness, combining mandarin and white tea. Pepper, for its part, instantly adds spice to these
top notes. Then, the heart of Lacoste L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense focuses more clearly on romance and femininity. Rose becomes one with cotton flower and iris. This tender, powdery rendering ends with an enveloping, sensual base of musk, cedar and sandalwood.
All the codes of the Lacoste polo shirt in a feminine fragrance bottle
Of course, the Lacoste polo shirt also greatly inspires this fragrance's bottle. It adopts the same square shape and rounded shoulders as this T-shirt. The crocodile is engraved on the bottle's front. Only one small difference: it has traded its green color for a more feminine pink. This same color is found in a gradient on its walls. Finally, the famous piqué pattern is also carved onto this case. The Lacoste spirit shows through from every angle!
