Season and Occasion Fit

de Lacoste

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and light character makes it ideal for office wear and casual settings, as it's unlikely to offend. The lack of strong projection and longevity, however, diminishes its suitability for dates or formal events where a more impactful scent is often desired. It performs well as an 'out of doors' scent, making it suitable for light sport.

By The Coast

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The floral character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its floral, citrus signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
