As an official stockist of Lacoste Menswear and Lacoste Footwear, Stuarts can compliment these with 3 great fragrance ranges from Lacoste - Essential, Elegance and Red Style In Play. Here's the official Lacoste word on each of these ranges...
From the office to the gym, this scent stays fresh throughout your busiest day. As a great innovator, Lacoste was keen to explore a new expression of a citrus 'Eau' fragrance: In a traditional fragrance the top-note oils - responsible for the fresh citrus scent - quickly evaporate after spraying on skin. Most users don't like losing this first impression so quickly.
Fortunately, our patented Time Release technology traps the top-note oils in the perfume , steadily releasing them over time. This allows the fragrance to stay fresher for longer, as if it had been freshly applied. Naturally, the length of time depends on the individual's skin chemistry, but it can last from morning until evening.
Key ingredients
Citrus notes
Tomato leaves
Black pepper
Woody notes
An irresistible charm. A twinkle in the eye. Timelessly elegant yet totally modern. Lacoste Elegance, the captivating male fragrance from Lacoste, captures the stops-you-in-your-tracks charisma of the contemporary gentleman.
Top Notes
The predominance of bright, fresh notes, including penny royal peppermint, thyme and juniper berry reflect the contemporary gentleman’s joie de vivre.
Heart Notes
Raspberry, nutmeg, black pepper and cardamom come together in a harmoniously sweet and spicy blend.
Base Notes
The charm levels are elevated a further notch with warmth of sandalwood, cedarwood, ambery and musky notes, and an unexpected, dry chocolate accord.
Masculine intoxication. Exotic, fresh and mysterious. Lacoste Red is just the extra boost of energy and confidence a man needs.

If you want to get him a hat for Christmas, you can't go far wrong with a Kangol.
The Kangol story starts after the end of the First World War. Jacques Spreiregen started to import Basque Berets from France. Kangol still has abort in its line-up to this day. It wasn't until 1938 ha Jacques created the Kangol name to distinguish his brand. They say he combined the K from Knitting, the ANG from Angora and the OL from wool. The Cumbria-based company went on to supply berets to the British Army and outfitted the British Olympic team for the 1948 opening ceremonies.
Other key dates are the introduction of the Carricap and Seamless Cap in 1954, in 1964 obtaining sole rights to produce any headwear which featured the image, endorsement or name of The Beatles and in 1981 creating the hats worn by British Airways cabin crew.
Today Kangol produces a wide range of headwear, that crosses generations and cultures. It's not just Hip Hop and it's not just heritage. Kangol is not just a fashion brand. Kangol is a cultural fashion fusion, taking the very best of British heritage and retro Hip Hop and and mixing it with future fashion. Kangol seeks to satisfy a new generation of consumers without alienating the people who put Kangol where it is today. This is demonstrated in the mutual respect that is exchanged between Kangol and the talented individuals the brand collaborates with.
