All others should bow down before the great green Polo god. There are more than enough reviews here covering the way it smells, so I won’t go into that, except to say that this smells fantastic. Another old-school powerhouse I am very glad to have added to my growing collection. If it makes me smell “dated,” I am perfectly happy with smelling that way. It is one of my favorites, and what I think of when I heard the term cologne.
I normally don´t like leather, but it´s not too much in this one. But it suits an older man best I think, so not quite for me yet. I have always perceived my grandpa as very classy.
20 years later she still swears that she remembers me with this perfume. It’s still her favourite, though I now own a lot of perfumes her eyes light up whenever i wear this one. Today’s version of Polo Green only lasts about 2 hours on me and then it’s a skin scent. The OG lasted for 12 or more hours and it still projected and had great silage through the day. Even though I own multiple versions of Polo throughout it’s life cycle, I still choose the modern formula for my day to day wear. My Cosmair bottles are purely for nostalgia and for the collection.
I just adored it, it made me feel rich and powerful. I liked it so much I even wore it to bed. Mind blowing good, everyone wore it and the ladies liked it too. Besides it still holding my number one spot for classic male frags, this bottle remains undefeated. Simple, dignified, and to the point. This bottle and scent helped shape me as a man.
The black vinyl dial includes a matte center portion and a unique “split” six numeral—a nod to the typography in the logo of Far Cry 6. What’s more, the seconds hand is finished in lacquered “revolutionary red” as a tribute to the guerrilla forces of Yara. Finally, just 1,983 of these watches will be made, a reference to the 1983 assassination attempt on the island’s dictator. Handmade side gussets, engraved collar stays, and genuine Mother of Pearl buttons? Emma Willis is for the real dress shirt stans.
Every colleague he’s worked with or student he has taught forever associates him with the scent that remains long after he has left the room. Despite the reformulations through the years and new Polo flankers he insists on his green bottle that to him represents the ultimate man’s man, the ideal gentleman in every sense ralph lauren t shirt of the word. 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 starts bright, leaving trails of grass and moss, before drying into leather and Patchouli, which for me is its dominant note.
This 90’s batch is incredibly powerful, long lasting, and rich. An all time classic, although not one that fits well with many occasions due to it’s strength and complexity. If nothing else, worth having in the collection simply to spray yourself and smell it while working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic. I love Polo, but I would not consider this a very safe or crowd pleasing scent. This was what my dad wore when I was a kid.
The pine isn’t terribly realistic, but it smells nice. As time goes on, I can pick up powder, leather, and tobacco. Such an outstanding and iconic green classic.
Somehow it smells substantial and dignified, but not in a lax way. The activity is there, but it is rooted. This is for a man who is clean shaven and dresses smart, but isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty — in a word, your archetypal 70’s New York detective.
