What do reviewers say about Original and Sauvage?
Lacoste Original still holds up, it's the fragrance you reach for when you want to smell like yourself. Confident. Uncomplicated. The spicy-synthetic opening gives way to warm woody depth.Original
Sauvage EDP is unapologetically bold. Synthetic in the best possible way, clean, sharp, designed to announce. If you want to whisper, this isn't the bottle.Sauvage
