SYNOPSIS: Claude LeCoq published his first book, The Soft Lawn, in 1916 while still attending Princeton University. A controversial portrait of adolescent upper-class rebellion in New England, the coming-of-age story follows Hampton Perry, a charmingly snotty college tennis champ who, after years of having everything handed to him on a silver platter, finds himself handing it all back.

A little-known fact about the author: Claude LeCoq wore only seersucker suits, known in that era as the wardrobe of the poor, and it was his gallant presence at high society dinners and prestigious sporting events that brought the fabric into popularity among the affluent in the ’20s.

Timothy L. ★★★★★

The grapefruit and laurel notes give it a fresh, green lift that actually feels like rolling around in a well-kept lawn on a warm afternoon. I've been reaching for it every Sunday since it arrived, and the linden blossom softens it just enough to keep it from being sharp.

Edward T. ★★★★★

One spritz before a lazy Saturday morning and I was hooked — the linden blossom and grapefruit cuts through with this bright, green freshness that honestly feels like a weekend in a bottle. Laurel adds just enough warmth to keep it from being too sharp. My new go-to for lounging around.

Lucy K. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a fragrance meant for lounging, but the laurel note gives it a green, almost grassy edge that feels like fresh air. Sprayed it on for a lazy Sunday and kept catching whiffs of that linden blossom all afternoon — it really does capture the weekend vibe.
