About

Red Croc is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Lacoste L.12.12. Red. It opens with Mango, Mandarin Orange, leads into a heart of Pepper, Cardamom, Ginger, and dries down to Woody Notes, Black Locust, Benzoin. The overall character is warm spicy with fruity and citrus facets. It is a lighter, more linear interpretation than the original - less of the expensive nuance, but the headline accord comes through clearly for casual everyday wear.
