After having smelt Lacoste Touch Of Pink while out shopping, I decided to put it on my Christmas list last year and very kindly my brother bought me a bottle and it is becoming a favourite scent of mine.
Packaging Lacoste Touch of pink comes in a bright pink box which is very eye catching. The bottle itself is dark pink at the bottom and the colour gradually gets lighter towards the top, where it is nearly see through. The lid is see through and pops off very easily and the nozzle itself is a metallic baby pink. The Lacoste logo is printed on the front of the bottle and the words touch of pink are written on the bottle in baby pink writing. I think this perfume bottle is very girly and looks lovely on my perfume shelf with the rest of my collection.
Price A 15ml bottle will cost around £13, a 30ml bottle will cost you £20, a 50ml bottle will cost around £31 and a 90ml bottle will set you back around £39.
What Does It Smell Like? This perfume has a very light scent, but no so light that it will not be noticed. It is quite a sweet and girlie smell but is not too sickly. I would say that this scent is meant to be quite subtle, people will notice it, but not because the smell is too overpowering. According to Lacoste's website, the ingredients include blood orange, coriander, jasmine, violet, sandalwood and vanilla.
How Long Does The Smell Last? This fragrance is designed to be fairly subtle so when you first put it on, it does smell slightly stronger at first than it does throughout the day. This left me thinking that the fragrance didn't last very long as I couldn't actually smell it that well on myself, but colleagues, friends and my boyfriend have often commented on the fragrance much later in the day after having put it on several hours beforehand so this obviously does last!
Summary I think that this a great subtle fragrance, nice and girlie without being too sickly and obvious enough without choking people when you walk into the room. Although the price may seem quite expensive, it's actually about the going rate for a designer name perfume. For people who don't like a fragrance that is too heavy or too obvious, then this would be the perfect scent.
Thanks for reading.
