Inspiration by Lacoste

I always come back to give this one a sniff, though I probably won't buy it. The pink pepper is very prominent straight away and it's very 'clean' and aquatic at the same time without being unfriendly. I think it makes a nice young summer scent.

i do not know what to say about this one, is a fresh vanilla spicy scent i think...., but in fact this perfume doesn't inspire me anything i find this flat anoing but is only a personal opinion

vipiri

This perfume is really DELICIOUS!!! everyone in my family loves it!! When I use it on my wrist I smell it constantly because it makes my feel very happy :) It´s soft, young and It feels very clean.

To my nose, nauseating. Powdery and vanilla are ok, but mixed next to the opening notes . . . pomegranate, plum, and pink pepper. Eugh, that combination turns the consistency of the scent into a gourmand syrup that, to my personal taste, is overwhelming and headache-inducing. I don't think I could get over that initial fruity-peppery-cavity blast to the florals in the heart.

Really, Inspiration isn't as uninspired as many others, but to my perfume preferences, an easy dislike.

This perfume is amazing!! I don't usually buy the same scent twice but with this one I just couldn't resist. I think it will be my signiture for ever! It is so me, I really fell like it defines me like no other fragrance I've ever tried on.It makes me feel like I could wear it anyplace, and anytime...I find it perfect for me!

Miska

I really like this scent. It´s soft and not too sweet. Very feminine and sexy.

Rosaflor

minousdepoes

I like it a lot, it is a warm and cozy smell, also longlasting with me, i wear it now almost 4 hours and its going on. It reminds me of armani lei her in some way, only this has more dept for me.Lovely.

On initial application, the mandarin and pink pepper are the most obvious to my nose. I can then detect the jasmine, sandalwood and vanilla as the perfume warms and settles down. On my skin, the scent has fair staying power and my overall impression of Inspiration is that it is clean and spicy. I used to wear this to parties in my final year of school as I had been given a small sample, so I think this would be more popular with younger girls.

senna

I find this very simmilar to Princess by Vera Wang....
anyway, i like it...

sharyssa

I like this it kind of reminds me of Hypnose but a little bit spicy.I would like to get a bigger bottle I got the 1.6 oz but I could wear this more often I like it.

Somehow Inspiration doesn't seem like an oriental floral, in fact it isn't floral at all, instead it's rather fruity/citrusy and fresh.

I was waiting patiently for the beautiful white floral blend in the heart of this scent, but it never appeared.

From the very beginning the pomegranate and mandarin orange notes are the standouts. I honestly don't mind this combination, however the pink pepper which starts to make its presence known after a few minutes, doesn't seem to blend well with the other notes, creating a jumbled and messy spicy fruit combination which in my opinion smells slightly off.

Thankfully the pink pepper note disappears quickly, yet the pomegranate and mandarin orange remain. The scent becomes rather powdery and soapy in the heart where the florals are supposed to be. The subtle fruity notes keep this fragrance from becoming too bland, however Inspiration doesn't develop any further. The scent is pretty much just fresh and pleasant, nothing too extraordinary here.

Unfortunately the lasting power is poor, 2 hours and it has practically disappeared. The best thing I can say about this fragrance is that it's plain but nice.

Inspiration is missing here. A very clean perfume, wearable, almost nice if not boring.

I bought this fragrance for my sister. I decided to give it to her at the last minute because I was not at all fascinated with it. In fact, it left me nauseated. I wanted the scent to inspire me but I was really let down. But I know my sister will love it because we're complete opposites...

Everyone asks why blue... because the difference between colour and smell is what attracts interest upon it. I agree with most of the reviews below, it is a bit fresh at first(maybe due to pomegranate), but pimento is easily detected from beginning to end. In the middle notes, it is nicely accompanied by tuberose, forming a sweet powdery spicy scent. I find it pleasant, well-blended, but similar to some other fragrances out there; what come to my mind first are Naomi Campbell's "N.C." and "Cat Deluxe". It can give a headache to the sensitive ones.

perfumesheep

A fresh,spicy and green scent in the beginning and after a while it settles down quite sweet and floral. I love it a lot. It is perfect for warm summer days. Unfortunatelly it does not last long on me.

Jeff

I really don't know a whole lot about woman's perfume, but i know this smelt drop-dead gorgeous. I got as a sample along with Lacoste's essential when i bought Pour Homme. I gave it to my step grandmother because i knew she liked perfumes and had been kind of a mentor or tester for me when i got my colognes. Inspirational accurately describes this perfume. It's very soft and powdery and in my opinion is a very beautiful scent. It kind of has that same seductive softness as hair conditioner. It just makes me want to fall in love.

ArtELLE

It s a nice casual smell. It s always a good choice in the "what fragrance to wear today?" problem.

i love this lacoste inspiration perfume coz' this was given me as a gift by my boyfriend from uk, its smell is really refreshing and it gives me self confidence and good mood everytime i use this before i go out side.

elvive

the smell is gorgeous: soft vanilla blend was the most noticeful for me, but there was no staying power on me, i couldn't smell anything after few minutes :(

tommy_girl

inspiration doesn't belong to the long bottles of Lacoste series.it's more sophisticated and complicated than them,though it starts the same way.
it opens with very strong citrus notes which is really refreshing and energetic,almost better than of all lacoste's pick perfumes.
at this time,I can't believe it's an oriental-floral fragrance.it's more likely citrus-aromatic or at least floral-fruity.
but it becomes warmer and more oriental as it remains on skin.sandal wood makes it woodsy too.
the more interesting point about it,is how the smelling changes through the time from a ice fresh to an oriental warm fragrance!that's why it's suitable for almost every season.but,personally I like the top notes more and I wish they remained more.

veronique

A charming, lightly sweet perfume, fruity, spicy top notes. Suitable for any occasion.

noharadwan

this one is very sweet smelling, powdery and delicate but not that inspiring !! in other words not very special

Russian

I tried it today in the morning and I can still smell it on my wrist.It is a very lasting perfume.
Like many of the others,I thought it was an inspiring perfume,a light,a clear scent.
I was very disappointed.Boring,powdery and what is worse,that the name,the bottle and the consistency of the fragrance do not match.
Unfortunately,I notice that Lacoste fragrances are not for me.

Zocha

I bought this fragrance after reading your reviews guys and I'm very happy I did so.It is very nice, kind of fresh like Miracle/Lancome but sweeter, not too much though. The nice touch of vanilla makes it deliciously warm.

Trvevil

I was so disappointed.. in a good way! Packaging and ad was creating impression of fresh, clean a bit sweet perfume I was sniffing from the bottle. When I tried on skin I got fruity floral opening with some spices and after hour or so it turned very woody and just precious.
Only question left, why blue color? It's close to Strip on my skin. Love this one.

ktv0926

Nice scent for every day without any particular character. It's good to wear for some office job - it doesn't distract from work and give you good energy at the same time. It's very "Lacoste":)

crysna

a soft, clean, fresh, little powdery fragrance special 4 everyday use in sunny days! love the lily of the valley and vanilla on it. thanks lacoste

Migotka

Me and my sister felt in love with it immediately. Although most people say it does not last long, I could feel it on myself for hours. I really like the spicy notes in it. You can defnitely smell vanilla, although it does not get too sweat. In my opinion one of the best smells for casual wearing out there.

Inani

it's like a fairy-tale-such a fairy scent,sweet magic!

Emeraude

At last I have it!!!...I love this perfume, fresh,clean,sweet,and soft...

azuriiita

This one smell so nice... for me, its subtle.
A good combination of white flowers -in a mellow way-, pomegranate and vanilla... I will be satisfied to receive a bottle like a gift hihihi :D
For my mood, Its suitable to sea journey at mornings :) ... in other words: its pleasant and comfortable :)

rieuse

When I first saw the commercial of Inspiration I somehow thought that it had to be a very clean and crispy scent. Then I saw a bottle at my friend's house and asked her permission to try it. Next day I rushed to the store to buy myself a bottle. If they sold this fragrance by gallons I would definitely buy couple. The scent is sweet. It's almost caramel sweet which elevates my mood instantly. It doesn't stay with me for a long time but the quality of the scent is worth giving this perfume a try.

chance25

This is an amazing scent! If you love perfumes like Lancome Hypnose or Prada Infusion d' Iris you must try this. I feel like I'm floating on a cloud. I get hints of sweet pepper and iris. It's FB worthy b/c it lasts forever and can usually be found cheaply.

guest_

a very nice powdery scent. Very light and sweet smelling...
