Lacoste Booster is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1996. Booster opens with Orange, Grapefruit, Mint, and Eucalyptus, settles into a heart of Pimiento, Lavender, Nutmeg, and Galbanum, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Lacoste's Booster carries a Statement verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Lacoste Booster is a divisive, nostalgic throwback. Some find its bracing, minty freshness a unique and uplifting experience, perfect for summer. Others are less impressed, describing it as synthetic, dated, or even smelling like toothpaste. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with a loyal following.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport

Its sharp, invigorating profile and reputation as a 'booster' or 'post-gym' scent make it ideal for sport and very casual wear. The strong aromatic and camphor notes, however, might be too assertive for formal events or intimate dates, and some office environments.

About

Imagine a brisk morning jolt: sharp grapefruit and orange lead a charge of cool eucalyptus and spearmint, instantly invigorating. This aromatic freshness evolves with basil and spicy pimiento, adding an unexpected warmth, before settling into a clean, woody base of vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar. It's a green, camphorous cocktail that's anything but subtle.
