Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lacoste Essential Sport EDP
A divisive freshie that some tout as a masterpiece and others find too sharp and synthetic. While it's great for the gym and hot weather, don't expect groundbreaking complexity or a huge price tag.
Statement
Our Verdict - Valoris Alpha EDT
A solid, modern all-rounder that's fresh to death, but don't expect it to break any new ground. Valoris Alpha plays it safe, and that's precisely why it's so likeable.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lacoste Essential Sport

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, aquatic, and sporty accords make it an ideal gym or casual summer scent. However, its often sharp citrus opening and average longevity mean it's less suited for formal events or intimate dates.

Valoris Alpha

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh and clean profile, driven by prominent citrus and marine accords, makes it highly versatile. It's perfectly suited for casual outings and gym sessions, and polite enough for the office, though perhaps a tad too lively for truly formal events.
