Solids are good, but be sure to pick up a few stripes as well. A couple of wide striped classic fit cotton tees will always be a great choice. Never mind the country club image here folks, Polo, because this isn’t gentlemanly games on the Chelsea commons of West London circa 1910. This fragrance is brutal, earthy, dark and danky pine woods like the ones that used to cover all of Northern Europe before the 12th century. Those woods are wet and mossy from the constant fall rain and drizzle, capturing the misty cool morning and the decaying leaves on the ground.
I quite enjoyed it—and man has it changed too— but it took a backseat to Polo Green. I wore Polo for about 20 years but it just kept going polo dress shirts through reformulations and it is now a watered down, quality stripped shell of the original. It’s Polo, but a cheap imitation of it.
When I was in my teens, I loved it. To me, it smelled like nothing else. However, as I recall there was a sweet aspect to it back in the day. I have no idea what notes I smelled.
After a fresh and energizing first impression of lemon and bergamot top notes, this Ralph Lauren cologne reveals its sensual side with unexpected hints of red saffron and warm cedarwood. Combining two pillars of Polo style, this shirt features a Western-inspired silhouette rendered in prep-centric cotton madras. Designed with travel and versatility in mind, the layers of our latest Polo Ralph Lauren men’s collection feature lightweight fabrics in neutral tones, ready to wear for any adventure. This scent still insinuates instant credibility and faux sophistication upon even the most banal and superficially unsophisticated older men. A work of art in its capturing of the alpine forest and a timeless classic original.
Pine, wood, musk, tobacco, leather, but almost immediately settles into a “dirty talc and spice” feel. It is green with the smell of fallen leaves in Jungle. My Vintage bottle arrived today, what a fantastic scent, so happy I found it. This is for those who may want a wearable version of the original, but mostly for those who seek the nostalgia and memories associated with the scent. I can’t compare it to the original as I’m only thirty, I get mixed reviews from people but me and my Mrs love it.
I wore it uninterrupted throughout my twenties. It now evokes so many memories when I wear it now I just sink into nostalgia. Woody, green, but floral at the same time. It Polo Ralph Lauren t shirt starts bright, leaving trails of grass and moss, before drying into leather and Patchouli, which for me is its dominant note. It has amazing projection and lasts all day.
