Lacoste Original is the men’s eau de toilette launched by Lacoste in 1984 with the help of the house of Jean Patou, which then marketed the brand’s fragrances under license. The house classes it among aromatic fougères: lemon, bergamot, lavender and menthol at the top, a heart of geranium and clove, a base of coumarin, in a square white and green bottle stamped with the crocodile.
The house classes Lacoste Original among aromatic fragrances, in the fougère subfamily. The top pairs lemon, bergamot and lavender with a freshness of menthol; the 2008 presentation adds orange.
The heart brings together geranium and clove, a floral accord the house calls unexpected. Osmoz also places coumarin there, which the 2008 presentation puts in the base.
The base rests on coumarin. In 2008, the house described sandalwood and vetiver there, paired with patchouli, musk and lichen, to assert the masculine touch.
