Lacoste 2004 EDT
Red
Lacoste Red is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2004, created by Annick Menardo. Red opens with Apple, settles into a heart of Pine, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Patchouli. Lacoste's Red carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.
This one's a proper crowd-pleaser, fresh and fruity, but its notoriously poor performance means many feel short-changed. If you demand longevity, look elsewhere; otherwise, it's a solid, unpretentious pick.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Best Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and fruity profile makes it suitable for casual wear, dates, and sports. However, its poor longevity and projection mean it's not ideal for formal events or demanding office environments where a stronger presence is desired.
