What's New: Beauty of the Game EAU DE LACOSTE L.12.12. Blanc Limited Edition

Happy Friday!

I know the Olympics are over, but the Paralympics are still going on, so it's not too late to get LACOSTE'S new take on their classic Eau de Lacoste L.12.12. :D

A month ago, I received an email about the new fragrance from Lacoste. 

They also asked me if I would like to receive a free sample, and of course I said yes. :)

I was expecting to receive a tiny sample (as is customary when it comes to fragrances), but instead I got a substantially big box (pictured above).

My favorite color! :)

They sent me a full-sized version of this particular fragrance... and no, not the 1 oz. bottle -- they sent me the 3.3 fl.oz. one -- WOW! Thank you, Lizzie! :)

Since this is for men, guess who got this awesome fragrance??? 

Yup, my brother! That lucky kid! ;)

EAU DE LACOSTE L.12.12

THE LACOSTE POLOSHIRT IN A FRAGRANCE COLLECTION

We want to remind everyone that life is greater when it is lived like a game. Lacoste fragrances are celebrating the beauty of the game. Wrap your skin in a uniquely clean, fresh, and crisp scent with Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc Limited Edition.

The new limited edition "Beauty of the Game" version of their bestselling men's EAU DE LACOSTE L.12.12 Blanc was released in July 2012. 

The white outer carton features 10 crocodile images -- the brand’s iconic logo -- that embodies flags from countries all around the world. The flags symbolized are that of U.S.A., Spain, France, Argentina, Australia, UK, Brazil, Japan, Germany, and South Africa. The innovative design of the box reflects the everlasting universality of the brand. Bringing together cultures and different walks of life, Lacoste continues to be the global brand that this limited edition fragrance showcases.

Rosemary contributes to the woody floral creation of the EAU DE LACOSTE L.12.12 Blanc fragrance which is based around a natural Tuberose for a clean and crisp scent.

Top Note: Grapefruit, Cardamom, Rosemary, Cedar Leaf

Heart Note: Tuberose Absolute, Olibanum Resinoid, Ylang-Ylang

Base Note: Vetiver, Suede, Cedarwood, Georgywood

It smells amazing!

It's perfect for my brother (especially when he has P.E., he said, haha!). ;)

EAU DE LACOSTE L.12.12 Blanc Limited Edition is captured in a glass flacon that has been created to mirror the chic simplicity and shape of the LACOSTE L.12.12 polo shirt, complete with a textured piqué panel running down the side of the bottle.

The iconic Lacoste crocodile logo -- the same one found in their even more iconic polo shirts -- is found on the fragrance bottle. I think that's a really nice touch. My brother even said he won't throw away this bottle even when he finishes it. ;)

Price: $62 (100 ml/ 3.3 fl.oz.)

Available at Bloomingdale's and www.bloomingdales.com.

This is the perfect gift for the men in our lives -- Dad, brother, uncle, Grandpa, boyfriend, husband, best guy friend, etc. -- especially if they loved the Olympics! ;)

What do you guys think? 

Is this something the men in your lives will like?

Happy Weekend! :D
