Seductive Apple
One sets the example, while a few others blindly chase the trend - fragrances with an intense apple note are meant. This was new and trendy in the mid-2000s and was often interpreted quite pleasingly. I have now had Style in Play for almost eight years as this fresh summer scent, but do I still enjoy smelling it this season?
Style in Play is overall a variation of the classic Red by Lacoste, just a bit fresher and spicier. This is meant to be symbolized by the packaging brightened with silver elements. The bottle is made of white-transparent glass, with only remnants of red left at the bottom edge. Overall, the bottle appears lighter and more playful, showcasing its side grip grooves with ribbing better. It has always felt great in hand.
As expected, the first impression of the scent is promptly: apple-y! What I find puzzling is that a green apple was chosen for the red design. Be that as it may, delicious is delicious, and that remains true for the fragrance. The fruity-fresh note of the apple is joined by the green-sweet jasmine, before the herbaceous, green, and toxic thuja barges in and makes its presence known. Indeterminate wood notes come into play, while vetiver and patchouli round off the green notes once again. There is supposed to be musk in it as well, but I have been searching for it in vain for years.
This fragrance promises to bring style into play. One can certainly say that, as the green fougere notes and the spicy wood accents suit the sporty-fresh summer scent well. The individual notes reappear throughout the life of this fragrance, reminding you of themselves. This keeps the scent exciting and varied for the nose even after several years. Six to eight hours is fine for such a fragrance, but unfortunately, I find the sillage to be just average; sometimes I wish for a bit more.
A seductive apple scent, skillfully rounded off with its green and spicy notes - a lovely summer fragrance.
