Flora Five's Lacoste White attar is an alcohol-free, oil-based interpretation of the crisp, white-polo freshness of Lacoste Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc. Grapefruit, rosemary and cardamom open bright and clean-scrubbed, ylang-ylang and tuberose lend a discreet floral warmth through the heart, and the drydown settles into Virginia cedar, suede and a whisper of leather — lasting roughly 8–10 hours on skin.

Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc |
How it compares. Our attar captures the recognisable L.12.12 Blanc accord — that freshly laundered white-shirt brightness resting on quietly masculine suede and cedar. Because it's a concentrated oil with no alcohol, the opening is softer (no spray "blast"), it develops more slowly, sits closer to the skin, and lasts noticeably longer than an alcohol spray.
Like every Flora Five oil, it is 100% alcohol-free and halal, so it moves easily from morning prayers to a long workday. Roll it onto pulse points — wrists, the sides of the neck, behind the ears — and give your body heat a few minutes to unfold the cedar and suede. Keep it off white fabric; perfume oils can leave a mark.

Frequently asked questions
What does Lacoste White attar smell like?
Clean and sporty with a well-dressed finish. It opens on zesty grapefruit sharpened by rosemary and cardamom, softens into creamy ylang-ylang and tuberose, then dries down to cedar, suede and light leather. Think crisp white polo shirt rather than anything sweet or heavy — fresh, tidy and effortless to wear.
How long does it last?
Expect roughly 8–10 hours on skin. As a concentrated oil it projects within arm's reach for the first 4–6 hours, then hums closer to the skin for the rest of the day. On cuffs, collars and beard hair it clings even longer, often surviving into the next morning.
How is Flora Five's version different from the original Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc?
The original is an alcohol-based eau de toilette built for a big fresh burst that fades within a few hours. Our interpretation is a concentrated perfume oil: it opens more gently, stays truer to the suede-cedar drydown, lasts significantly longer, and is completely alcohol-free — at a fraction of the designer price.
Which size should I choose — 3, 6 or 12 ml?
The 3 ml is a low-risk way to test it against your skin chemistry. If you want a daily office scent, the 6 ml balances price and quantity nicely, while the 12 ml works out cheapest per millilitre — one or two swipes a day stretches it across several months.
