Polo Blue Eau de Parfum
Polo Blue Eau de Parfum by Ralph Lauren is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2016 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot, basil and lemon verbena, moves into clary sage and marine accord and dries down to suede, oakmoss, musk and vetiver. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Basil Peppery herb with an aniseed lift. Culinary but wearable.
- Lemon Verbena Lemon crossed with crushed herbs. Smells like expensive soap.
Heart
- Clary Sage Softer, sweeter sage with an ambery undertone. Warm and herbal.
- Marine Accord Generic 'ocean' — salt, air and water. Clean and uncomplicated.
Dry-down
- Suede Soft, powdery leather. Much gentler than the real thing.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
