Hey! It's Lacoste Essential!


So, as promised, I'll be using this thing to get reviews about cologne, as well as several other men's skincare products and other assorted things, I suppose today will have to be a cologne review day.
Maybe I should have some sort of structure to this thing? Oh well! :)
Today, Lacoste Essential is in the limelight, here goes...

Lacoste Essential is an amazing scent. I have recieved quite a few compliments regarding this fragrance, the main tone of this cologne (haha, that rhymes..) is pepper (seriously). After the main, spicy tone, it fades off into a light-semi citrus end-note. The cologne is perfect for spring into summer time, especially when you sweat. Why when you sweat? Lacoste Essential is probably one of the ONLY colognes in the world that uses a Time Release Technology in which it reactivates itself when body temperature goes up. It has a life of about 3-5 hours before it begins to fade, however, say you use this cologne, and after a few hours, begin to sweat, or get heated up by any[sexy] event, the cologne will re-activate and the scent will return like it was sprayed not too long ago. Works GREAT for athletes or for those who work outside, even the nervous types will find this technology very useful. Don't forget, the scent of any cologne is affected by each person's individual scent! I would definately recommend this, however.

This would also be pretty neat for office since it's distinct enough to stand out, and light enough so that you won't choke the cute girl in the cube next to you. Also, thanks to the TRT, while you're getting chewed out by the boss for openly hitting on the cute girl in the cube next to you, you'll smell great while getting the business! :) It's a win-win!

So, as I was doing further research on this cologne, I stumbled upon this thing...it was just a further reminder why why barely see televised ads for fragrance anymore, except for Sean John's line or the occassional lingering creepy and nonsensical CK ads from the 90's.

For those who don't want to click or are at work, it's basically some creepy looking European guy jumping along those poles on a dock while a wave comes close to smacking him off the deck. It's implied that he gets hit by the wave since it seems to be what he wants, but for some reason he is dry. This cologne will not keep you dry in the event that you
A) jump in front of a fire hose
B) go deep sea diving wearing a polo
C) are the dumbass in the commercial.

Good Business.
