Noir by Lacoste for Men 3.4 oz EDT Spray Tester

“L.12.12 Noir” by Lacoste Eau de Toilette is an aromatic fougère fragrance for men that contrasts juicy watermelon and fresh herbs with warm chocolate, cashmeran, and earthy woods.

The fragrance opens with refreshing watermelon before moving into an aromatic heart of basil, lavender, and verbena. Dark chocolate, cashmeran, patchouli, and coumarin add warmth and depth to the drydown, creating a fresh yet subtly sweet profile inspired by warm summer evenings. Its easygoing character works well for casual nights, dates, weekends, and everyday wear.

Bottle Description: L.12.12 Noir is presented in a sleek black bottle inspired by Lacoste’s iconic polo shirt, featuring the signature crocodile emblem and textured design details associated with the L.12.12 collection.

At Perfumes LA, we recommend it for men who enjoy aromatic fragrances with juicy freshness, herbal lavender, and an unexpected dark chocolate accent.
