Croc Key Active For Men

Perfume Parlour Croc Key Active For Men is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Croc Key Active For Men opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Geranium, Nutmeg, Juniper, and Aquatic, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, and Vetiver. Perfume Parlour's Croc Key Active For Men carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A budget clone of Lacoste Essential Sport. The bright grapefruit-and-ginger opening over an aquatic-woody base captures the original's inoffensive, sporty freshness, though Perfume Parlour renders it a touch flatter and shorter-lived.

About

Croc Key Active follows Lacoste Essential Sport, opening with a bright, grounded blend of grapefruit, bergamot and ginger that's fresh without being a sharp cologne. An aquatic-aromatic heart of geranium, nutmeg, juniper and watery notes adds a clean, peppery lift before a soft base of musk, patchouli and vetiver rounds it off. The original is a marine-citrus-woody designer described as a great inoffensive everyday wear for the office, weekends or out with friends, with mixed but often-good 6-8 hour performance. This clone keeps that bright sporty-fresh signature and the aquatic-woody drydown, but the composition reads a little simpler and the base projects closer to the skin with shorter wear. It's a clean, versatile daytime fresh that captures Essential Sport's easygoing charm for pennies.
