It is masculine and versitle. I consider it a solid office scent with low to middle projection depending on application. It is a sweet mango mixing with a a mossy texture and perfect for spring/summer.

Got this one for my dad too, and what a bang! Smells awsome on him too.

When I finally tried it I thought "better than Double Black". But this scent doesn't smell good on hot weather, which just accentuate the mango note which is a rotten one here, completely different from the mango note present in Paco Black XS. So I must admit that Double Black smells better, even not liking it.

Este perfume me lo regaló mi viejo, por ende, es un perfume muy pero muy masculino. De todos los perfumes que tengo este es el más chongo.
Es muy amplio, a pesar de que tiene un olor intenso, es fresco y muy aromático, logrando una armonía espectacular. Es atemporal, se lo puede usar tanto en invierno o en verano. Particularmente lo uso para ir al trabajo. Sin embargo, te pide un porte, que aunque pueda ser un poco informal, siempre debe ser elegante onda de traje o de vestir, no me imagino alguien de sport o de jean por la calle oliendo a Polo Black. No pega ni ahí.
Ahora si te gustó este perfume y lo queres más fuerte, más intenso recomiendo el DOUBLE POLO BLACK.

Nothing worth to mention.
Better be used as aftershave!

one of my most favorite scents. it's very versatile.
i love it so much that i've already consumed 3 full bottles & always carry along a 30ml bottle in my bag.

Polo black is a nice fragrance but poor longevity can lead to a decision not to buy it.
I bought a vial the other day and tried it on. I found out that it is quite powdery as pointed out but still far less than Burberry Brit for men. I think its brother "Double black" is more fascinating to me. IMHO, sillage is average on me but longevity is short.
All in all. 7/10 for me due to a lack of projection and longevity. Thank you for reading :)

Maybe I'm off on this one, but isn't this the Polo with the "iced" fruit note? To me it's fruitier than Blue, powderier (new word) than original Polo, and very safe to wear. Still sensing some kind of sharp, pine-related element in a microscopic dose somewhere in there though, and I dislike it. To me this is the best of the Polos, if you have to wear one then wear this one, but otherwise wear something else and save yourself money.

Reminded me of pepper on my skin. Had to get rid of it.
12/29/09 19:34:10
Average scent. I like very much the top notes, but after that, it becomes sweeter & sweeter & sweeter. Not for me, but not bad at all.
12/26/09 20:45:57
YUUUUK!
Why I bought this? It's unusual and...BAD!
2,5 / 10 (this is the lowest note I give on reviews)

failure on the polo line smells like its lacking something
10/29/09 20:11:52
I love it! My husband wears it! I love it so much that I find myself wishing I could wear it. Does anyone know of a womans perfume that smells similar to this?
10/05/09 20:08:26
great for summer. This cologne is like ice tea sweet and tasteful. It has many textures to it from earthy terrians,icy waters,and juicy fruits. It goes on as earthy and grassy then transforms into a juicy mango iced tea. the dry-down is floral/woodsy. So it is an all around fragrance that can be worn any time.
09/15/09 18:32:26
one of the only failures of the RL line! its very generic and offputting! its a nondescript forgettable scent lacking any kick to make it intresting! its kinda sweet and cheap smelling! polo double black is better, armani code, vs black jeans and burberry brit really are better than this and probably are what RL was thinking when they made this, but they got lost inbetween and came up with a body spray instead
09/14/09 17:44:30
i think i understand why some men do not like this fragrance, the sweetness perhaps? well i love it, as do many other women. this is definetly a scent that says "take me!" polo black is such a turn on!
08/23/09 18:53:15
aint nuthin black about it.its a fresh cologne, not dark and sultry like. smells just like Subtil from Ferragamo. its straight tho

I got a sample of Polo Black
from a closing store a while back.
Though not super exotic
it was rather romantic.
Starting on notes rather high and sharp,
it continued to soften like notes on a harp.
On my skin it ends so soft
not quite powdery, but still so soft
Ti's very utopian
yet neither feminine nor masculine.
Smells nice in winter,
yet does not whither,
as does all
that dies in the fall.

555 Yes,from my experiences most of people love this scent.I don't know how to explain about it but I can say women like this scent and lots of men are crazy when I wearing it.I just feel HOT and Sexier!!! with my slim black shirt,jean and my Polo Black.

This is a soft, lightly citrussy, warm scent. It is not sharp or overwhelming, nor is it overly sweet or intruisive.
At first the scent is light, green, with a touch of lemon peel. There is a strange slick of oil in there somewhere (like mineral oil or diesel without the power) but just a tiny trace, an impression. Within a couple of minutes I begin to get the creaminess of sandalwood mixed with mango & the savoury cleanliness of sage. There is no real depth to this fragrance - it is quite 'airy' without being fresh or zingy - but it hints at it in a subtle way.
It very much reminds me of saddle soap on a warm, freshly used saddle. Clean, hints of hay, herbs & warmth & the lightest impression of leather.
Not outstanding, but a really lovely, simple & restrained scent.

Much better than the original POLO Green in my opinion, which is to overwheling. This one is, although not being citrusy or fresh, still is not sweet and has a nice and invigorating smell. I wear it once a week and I like it, specially in milder days. I will not buy another bottle after this one ends though.

ang bango bango ng POLO BLACK lalo na pag libre. salamat po sa nagbigay sa akin. ang mahal pa naman dito sa pilipinas.

Great...
Polo Black too sweet, another sweet man's perfume on my collection!
This is also adorable, and my girlfriend just love the scent!
So, I would definitely wore this based on a special occasion.
Because I rather chose the fresher one, and the perfume that Polo Black doesn't have...Spicy Masculinity!
Now I'm thinking about Double Black?
Curious to try that.

what a perfume omg so unige so good so deferent smell for all out ther perfume
03/20/09 15:42:19
Agree with ozfest22... Not the best when it is first applied, but after a while it settles down and smells pretty good. I recommend Double Black over this one though.
02/26/09 08:09:02
It is kind of powerful when you first put it on and for 30 minutes to an hour it stays that way. However, I really like this cologne and once it settles in it is a very nice 'out on the town for the night' cologne.

A fragrance designed for a modern, daring and sophisticatged man. Polo black is a bold fusion of iced mango, silver armoise and patchouli noir.
02/19/09 12:38:48
I bought this one for my husband and I like it a lot...
02/15/09 13:25:12
This one is kind of a controversial scent, some people love it, some can´t stand it. Personally, being a fan of citrus fragrances, I must say that I like it very much, especially after drying down with the tangerine and lemon. I recommend it for nighttime wear, especially if you like to go clubbing, just be careful spraying it because it´s a little strong and invasive. go for it if you like scents with character, elegance and projection.
02/15/09 11:46:40
citrusy and woody. a good choice for everyday use. you could use this for any occasion. work, weekend, summer, winter, night out... just ideal for anytime and anywhere.
12/25/08 12:46:08
I am surprised that there is no notes pyramid mention here because this one evolves in time. The start is citrusy - you can really smell lemon and tangerine notes. Then the iced mango comes in. It's unique. The problem for me starts after 30 minutes. I can clearly smell the note which reminds me how my jacket smells after a visit in a fast food with air filled with fried oil. Very strange note. But fortunately after some time it dissaperas and the last and the longest one appears: it is the hedione, smell of fresh ozonic air. The sillage of this scent is good and it lasts long, very long. Polo Black is a modern and fresh scent with some surprising notes in it. It is worth giving a try but it is entirely differnet scent than its older brother Polo.

A rich purfume that remain with you long time, pure masculin sent, I like it
11/25/08 04:43:06

10/16/08 12:59:43
I personally love this one...the mango note is dominating...
10/16/08 11:57:06
It's ok, masculin and powerful but not the best from RL !
09/29/08 08:20:50
I tried this out for like a perioed of about an hour in the mall. Way too feminine and way too sweet, oh and not to metnion: excessively generic(scent-wise)
DOUBLE BLACK is exponentaily better than this regular 'polo black. I was really disappointed by the regular. I;m off to the mall to get some *Double Baclk* !!!!!!
