Because I had smelled this before and didn’t realize I would recognize it, my first recent application felt like surrealistic time traveling to childhood. Even though newer versions are weaker, the rich leathery pine smell is still classic and classy. There is no more iconic bottle in all of perfumery. Today it is quite disliked as feminine fragrances like Dior Homme Intense an Parfum rule the day.
Polo is one of the few that can truly handle the Paul Bunyan like giants of masculinity on earth without restraining that inner-beast inside. This seems to contain all the qualities I have been looking for Polo Ralph Lauren t shirt in fragrances like Aramis and Caron Yatagan. It is definitely a green leather chypre devoid of the awkward “celery note” of Yatagan and with a bit cleaner, more defined and spicier drydown than Aramis .
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.
Either the bottle now is diluted or my memory has diluted. Either way, I do enjoy it now but wish it can be the strong green beast-like in my memory. Polo is here for fans of beautiful, eternal things. Its name awakens association with a closed circle of the chosen and this circle has its rules and traditions. As a truly masculine perfume, Polo does not contain floral notes, apart from camomile, which has more grassy than floral scent. The opening of the composition is green and fresh, made of grassy notes of artemisia, basil and thyme, with spicy notes of cumin, coriander and cloves.
