It is very strong and robust. The glass is very thick and heavy. At the bottom of the bottle there is a slight tinge of red which makes it look very warm and appealing. It almost looks like the fragrance inside is red at the bottom. Lacoste style in play has been designed for the man that Lacoste d...

For the longest time, I couldn't decide whether or not I liked this one enough to buy it. Eventually, a friend of mine, who was nearly through his first bottle of this, gave the rest to me to help me decide. I'm glad I didn't buy it. Although I really do like the core smell of this one, I really...

I love this scent on a man.... and sometimes even on myself. (Yes, I am a woman!) While this is supposed to be for men, I think it can also work for a woman than wants to (occasionally) wear something less girly. While I don't get much of the grapefruit, I can surely smell the plum, juniper, cinnamon, rum, vanilla and sandalwood. Lasting power is decent, at about 6 hours.....

Great to wear every day. I love this perfume too and I always receive compliments about it. You won't regret. Its very good during hot days or even in the winter. It's a very flexible fragance.

My favorite perfume ever. Unlike any fragrance I've ever smelled. It always reminds me of being away at the beach in the Islands where I first found it many years ago - never found it here in the states anywhere. But one day I found perfume.com and found LAGUNA! I've reordered it many times and have a great collection of the funky bottles too. I never want to be without this perfume!!!

It is very strong and robust. The glass is very thick and heavy. At the bottom of the bottle there is a slight tinge of red which makes it look very warm and appealing. It almost looks like the fragrance inside is red at the bottom. Lacoste style in play has been designed for the man that Lacoste describes, ?????Thrives under pressure and approaches life with a full sporting attitude. He shows true natural style in every situation- at work, rest and play.?????_ Well where are all these men (or women!)? Please point me in the right direction! I haven?????t as to yet met a person who puts on a fragrance when they are at rest! Assuming rest is when they have just come home from work and can?????t be bothered to do anything else except to sit in front of the telly with a beer watching some football match! But anyway if I did I guess I wouldn?????t mind as much about what they did whilst resting or playing! But anyway back to the subject in hand. BUT WHAT DOES IT SMELL LIKE? Lacoste style in play starts off very fresh smelling, it?????s fruity and almost sweet. It must be the Jasmin and apples in it that makes it smell sweet, but after a few seconds it does start to get musky. Overall it?????s warm, sensual and dry, and yes I would fancy a person who wore this fragrance! It?????s very different to the other aftershaves around at the moment. When I smelt it I found that it?????s more sensual, it doesn?????t just scream huge muscled manly man, but it does scream, sensitive and caring loving person. If you liked CK1 then I think you would like this to. WOULD I BUY IT FOR MY MAN? I love this new fragrance, and yes I would definitely want my next lover to be wearing it, but whether they do or not is up to them, Oh well I?????ll just have to keep my nose up in the air to smell them out!

lacoste red style in play by lacoste is a great smelling cologne. It it sweet but also has a msuky side to it. the packagaing look very nice i must admit. althought the shape of the bottle may look a little weird, the red stained part on the bottom totally makes up for it. this colognes smells very nice and is wearable as a weekend or night out on the town cologne; mainly for the weekends though. This is a very good choice and i would highly reccommend it.

Very sporty and young, with predominant smell of fresh juicy green apples, supplemented by heart notes of cedar and jasmine, and the base note of white musk. I dont' think that this fragrance is just for yound men - on the contrary, anyone in good shape and with love for life can easily wear it, especially in the summer. It's rich and a tiny bit bitter - just enough not to be sweet. The only fragrance you can actually wear if you're doing any sports!

This is one of the best colognes in the market for men. Trust me on this one. I got a gift pack from Paris Airport Duty Free Shop and I got a deoderant with it too. This scent is unbelievably sexy and once you smell it, you want to smell it again and again. One of the BEST in the market!!!

An excellent summer oriental, something that is hard to come by. Laguna starts off with the scent of berries and sort of a saltwatery smell. The saltwater persists, and a nice smooth vanilla starts to come through. The power is just enough, it's never overpowering, but it makes it's presence known, and it has better sillage than most fragrances. In my opinion, one of the best scents out there, and can be had at a great price.

This is a phenomenal cologne. It's light enough to wear during the summer, but it's crisp texture with vanilla undertones make it a great year-round scent. I use this cologne daily and I am always complimented for how good I smell. It has definitely become my personal signature scent, and I'm sure it will be yours as well.

My new favorite! The fragrance is clean and fresh, not too heavy. Carries well during the day, with a quick rub across your face to revive the scent. Manly, without being overbearing. Women absolutely love it!

Similar to Allure by Chanel, but less pricey. Lots of fruity notes mixed with run, vanilla and sandalwood. This would probably be a decent choice to wear to work, it's not overpowering at all and it lasts a long time too. Not to be confused with the original Lacoste for men scent in the white and green bottle, which is more of a "just out of the shower" scent with maybe a little leather in the drydown.

This is such a fantastic and marvelous product!!, I've been using it for 5 years now, and I have to say I still get asked by ladies what is it that I'm wearing, because they love it!!! People have told me that they can tell I'm nearby, just by smelling this great fragance in the area. I've never recieved a bad comment about this magnificent scent, and I'm thoroughly satisfied with this product. I will absolutely recommend this product, and hope that it never gets scarce because i definitely love it!!

Its the first time i browsed at Perfume.com and was really excited to see Lacoste Pour Homme, my husband been using this scent for long time and was disappointed when learned that its not available in store anymore, so when i saw it at Perfume.com i ordered 2 sets of it as surprise christmas gift for my husband which im sure he will be very happy and im planning to order more as reserve, im also satisfied with the shipping, it arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. The smell is great for men, not too strong and makes me melt whenever i smells it in my husband, he wears it everyime he goes out.

Lacoste red style in play by lacoste is probably one of the best smelling colognes I know of. It smells wonderful and is great for any situation. I would reccomend it for use anytime but preferably at night or when you go out. This is a great smell in a great packaging.

Lacoste Red Style in Play is so cool. This smells so sporty and upbeat. It has a very sporty young fragrance about it. This is a great weekend cologne. It may be a little to casual and young for the office but I would definetely wear it everywhere else. Its great.

My boyfriend actually salvaged a full bottle of this cologne from the dorm trash at the end of last year, and was very suspicious about its manliness--after all, the descriptions all list the fruity tones, which do not inspire much confidence in a cologne! But luckily there's not really a hint of fruitiness in this cologne at all--a very light tough is so fresh and crisp!

Very good basic cologne if you really don't know what to wear... and that's about it. The overall bitterness, sweetened by just a hint of afterthought in a vanilla incarnation is really not enough to satisfy any fragrance lover - that's what most men's fragrances go for in order to reach a large audience. No wonder it's so widely available. However, if you want to stand out any - look for something different!

I chose Lacoste because my wife enjoyed the mild sweetness of the spray. I think its great cologne to wear in casual environments. This spray has not had any negative responses, however, not as many compliments as I wished.

My husband received this for Christmas and I was reluctant since I haven't heard much about it lately and i've heard of this designer mainly through apparal, BUT honestly, the scent smells great and masculine! It's a great everyday cologne that endures!

I believe this is the best cologne of the Lacoste Line and is distinctly fresh and masculine and has a sophisticated edge with a sweet top note. It also is has a cinnamon spicy scent along with a slight vanilla scent to top it off. Great for everyday use and I recommend it to anyone who likes sweet and spicy colognes.

Want something different from the mainstream? Then this is the fragrance for you! Yes, at first it is strong, but quickly dissipates and smells somewhat tropical after a few minutes. Not at all cheap-smelling to me. I would also suggest it as a gift at these great prices.

Eventually, a friend of mine, who was nearly through his first bottle of this, gave the rest to me to help me decide. I'm glad I didn't buy it. Although I really do like the core smell of this one, I really think it's too fruity and arrid to be worn for anything other than sports. The initial spray can be overwhelming! I do like the drydown, but like I said, it's just too fruity and almost comes off as childish to me. I think Lacoste should have refined this one a little more; took the time to balance things out a little instead of just throwing a bunch of good smells in. Either needs to be simplified or redone. I have the deodorant as well, however I cannot use it as it irritates my skin. Even with all these things I have to complain about, I manage to still like this one.

Lacoste Style In Play (aka Red) is a light, refreshing, summer-time fragrance. The dominant note in this fragrance is the green apple. Despite all of the other notes in this cologne, Style in Play comes off smelling like a bushel of freshly washed apples. This light, aquatic fruitiness makes Style in Play a great choice for any casual hot summer day. Style in Play can easily last throughout an entire day and even into the next if applied to clothes and that in itself is an accomplishment for a light fragrance. The one problem I have with Style in Play that keeps it from getting a higher rating from me is also the quality that makes others love it. I find it to be boring. However, if you want a nice straightforward fragrance for this summer, Style in Play may be worth looking into.

Pretty good for the gym, or for playing some sports. Very sweet, a bit feminine, but still ok. I can't distinguish the notes. It doesn't have much of an evolution. Think green, slightly (very slightly) powdery. I guess for most folks, it will just smell like deoderent. Because tastes seem to vary by age and local: San Francisco, age 24.

This cologne is nice. Lacoste has been around for ages but recently entered the cologne market. This cologne has a nice scent. It is not to strong or to soft. It is just right. However, I think the price of the cologne is kind of expensive as I purchased a bottle for $50 dollars and the armani was just a few dollars more. Lacoste is not armani. You always get what you pay for. This is a sporty fragrance for a day out at the beach or relaxing at the park. If you have a hot date and are wearing a suit, you want something more elegant and sophisticated. This is not the way to go. I would choose something else. I also recieved this for a bday from my grandma. That crazy women loves to smell me now because she bought me the fragrance. Hahaha. She so crazy.. Anyways, lacoste comes in a nice package. I love the little alligator symbol on there producucts. Mine came with a deadorant and a sample of some other stuff. Overall, i am happy with the lacoste fragrance and would continue to wear it in the future. lacoste is good, but there is better. This is aimed at the 20 aged male group I believe. Older men will want something stronger and more fierce. This has a softer smell and not strong. I often have to spray this on twice a day because the smell dissipates quickly. I guess I am just spoiled by the Armani Acqua di gio. :)
