Polo Black by Ralph Lauren is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for men. Polo Black was launched in 2005. The nose behind this fragrance is Pierre Negrin. The fragrance features sandalwood, tonka bean, patchouli, mango, sage, tangerine and lemon.
A very fresh, tropical, enjoyable, unique and pleasant opening that makes good use of citric fruit over spice and greens to capture a wide range of moods, making it rather universal and best suited for a mass audience. A Ralph Lauren mantra since the manufacturing of Polo Blue that has suited them financially quite well, to say the least. Imbues a bit of Caribbean flair with a rather synthetic but fairly well blended mango and tangerine accords that press nicely against the sage and greener qualities. These elements are then layered over a prominently spicy patchouli presence that within 10-15 minutes starts to get creamier as the tonka bean becomes more prominent.
The first 20-30 minutes are when Polo Black really shines, with the citrus taking full control and not allowing the patchouli and rather stale sandalwood note to reach center stage. A great seller in this respect, as the top and middle are very nicely done and find just the right balance between citric, herbal, and spicy, the perfect amount of time to sample, purchase and exit before realizing that Polo Black may not be all its cracked up to be.
The problem unfortunately lies with the rather uninspired and bland basenote formulation, which lacks a dark and brooding presence to give it depth and muscle. The patchouli is far too prominent and cloying during the drydown and the tonka bean just doesn´t seem to hold as well as it should, struggling to emancipate itself from the restraint of the overemphasized patchouli and highly synthetic sandalwood. One can only imagine what a little tobacco or leather accord or a more prominent and improved organic tonka bean accord could have done for Polo Black to make it truly exceptional.
This is nice, department store fodder but doesn´t have the same elegance and charm of Armani Code, which does a far finer job of finding a balance between cream, spice and citrus. Leans more in the direction of a skin scent and does seem to imbue the wearer with a sweet and creamy synthetic charm that does give this a certain versatility perfect for fall, spring or winter; day or night; casual or formal.
Projection may be a bit below average on most skin but longevity seems to tremendously vary based on individual chemistry and environmental circumstances. I have gotten as little as 3-5 hours and as much as 10-12 hours, with colder weather climates generally inducing a longer stay of the patchouli and sandalwood residue.
Certainly nothing to turn away from initially, Polo Black is very enchanting in its initial applications but after a few wearings quickly becomes tiresome to even the most loyal Ralph Lauren patrons. Blame it on the patchouli and sandalwood?
2/10
smell + longtivity
This is very sexy men fragrance when I first sniff. I decided to purchase suddenly and I agree that this one is belong to working man or woman. Personally, I like to wear Black with black shirt and denim and hang out with my friends and dancing. The base note is incredibly sexy. I adore tonka bean in this bottle. Got many compliments even a guy.
Nothing beats this i can say simply awesome, sophisticated & soo pleasent it has everything to be not anything ordinary & also in this modern world from my view & girls love it;), so far the best i have smelled from RL fragrance besides Polo classic with the golden cap. Highly recommended for a ( MAN ) in there collection! Thumbs UP!
The tone of the manga is the best mark already entered on a scent. Versatile and can be used in the heat here in Brazil, day or night, work and romantic encounters. One of my favorite fragrances, always praised by smell feminine.
Ralph Lauren is the best mansion represents the modern men!!!!!
Smells like most-other recently introduced men's fragrances - like a generic walking fruit salad. A Slight improvement over Polo Blue, which was a huge disappointment for my wife, as she paid big bucks for something I'd never laid a nostril on. The wife likes Black a bit more, so it will get worn, but I save the better scents for those BIG occasions...
atrae tanto perotanto a las mujeres q es increible, chicas preguntar y preguntar q usas, muchas veces se turnaban para oler mi cuello, huele muy impresionante, si quieren narises femeninas a tu lado, usenloooo
Polo Black has been my signature scent since i was 18. Its a mature scent yet at the same time youthful. Its easy to wear a very masculine scent, but doesnt give me any headachy feeling that a lot of strong masculine scents give me. There is nothing else that smells quite like polo black... its classic. The iced mango and tonka bean give it a sweetness that is nicely balanced by the dryness of the sandlewood. Longevity is moderate about 5 hours, its definitely suitable for night time or a date. My girlfriend loves it... she finds it to be an incredibly sexy smell and she doesn't like a lot of guys cologne, so for her to love it then it must be appealing lol. Just a great mens cologne for anyone!
I bought it yesterday, wearing it today, i am really happy with RLPB, I was a little aware of this fragrance, my first polo, but it is really nice, clean and sexy,you can wear it every season, actually i am from a warm country and PB is perfect smells very good on me
This is cool, deep,and gorgeous men's fragrance. This one stay on me more than 8 hours. Thumbs up
just bought it from the mall.. this is brilliant. the smell of mango is so aromatic and i find it sexy. the longevity is just moderate and i can wear polo black in any occasion. the best path is my wife love it. enough said!
This is a scent that I bought because I thought I'd liked it. Kind of a blind buy. The fact is that when I got it I regreted and almost swapped it, but I decided to give it another chance.
Meanwhile, the term in the school where I teach starts and I notice that one of my students wears it, and it smells amazing on him. Like magic, I start to enjoy it too. The mango that bothered me does not anymore. Actually, I find it very unique. It lasts hours and hours on my skin, I get a lot of compliments and best of all, it goes so well with my chemistry that I don't even recognize when other people wear it; at least for my perception, the smell on my skin makes it very special and unique for me.
Am not a RL fan, I actually never have ever liked any, well... not not liked, rather none has ever "caught my nose" This is however the ONLY RL fragrance I have EVER contemplated buyin, after experiencin what one can do with the mango note, I tried this one and found it very appealing, its sillage is not the best cause it tends to stay put but its nice, preferable for colder days and maybe spray alittle more to extend its longevity... it kinda doesnt stay that long on me. All in all 3.5/5
There are not so many fragrances in the market which leave an impact on the user but this one does so, it is one of the best among the woody/aromatic genre, though not unique but at the same time not so common also. It is a nice and inoffensive masculine fragrance gives a fresh feelings and bold attitude to the wearer. It stays quite linear and transition of notes is least noticeable. Projection is above average with fair longevity.
I give it 7.8 out of 10.
This fragrance does smell good,but I feel it is more suitable as an air freshner then as a mans cologne.Its just to fruity smelling,I use my bottle as an air freshner in my car.To expensive for an air freshner,next time Ill just buy some tropical Glade.
I have no idea why RL named this one Polo Black as there is nothing dark about this fragrance. Still it is a good woody, fruity aromatic type fragrance. The fruity opening is warm, after 1 hour or so it starts to become musky-woody. The sillage is average and longevity is so so about 4-5 hours. The cologne is very suitable to be worn to work. It is pleasant, warm and youthful. But dark? No. This one should have been named Polo Orange.
This is an overrated fragrance by R.L.It has a good scent for about ten minutes but doesnt last long and if youre looking for that fruity mens scent then Id suggest buying Stetson Black and save yourself about 40.00.I cant belive men want to smell like fruit baskets,I know this is a liberated age we are living in but why would a man want to smell like he just went produce shopping,because thats what this fragrance will make you smell like.Really,whatever happend to men smelling like men and not like a travelling group of French Can Can dancers.A woman wants a man to smell like a man,not like her older sister who just got off work from the farmers market.
This was one of the perfumes I used in high school really it is manly and people would say you smell and more compliments. My favorite up until in Polo's line of frags. i'd recommend this to anyone and can be used all year round.
this smell really good an manly. Suitable for working man rather than teenager.
I just want to say, all Polo fragrance are suittable for working man. The smell of the fragrances are very manly and masculin.
CHEERS to Polo for keeping up a good job on creating a manly fragrance!!
This is an EXCELLENT fragrance for someone first getting into the reviewing shin-dig. The notes are EASILY recognizable and bold. I first received this fragrance about 5 years ago for christmas (set of RL minis) and this one was my FAVORITES(By the way this is GREAT for the fall/winter)!
I found myself often abusing the poor mini, shaking it and pounding on it until i was thoroughly drenched in the juice.
No one seemed to mind though (may have something to do with the projection), and i always got compliments from men and women alike!
MANGO LOVERS REJOICE, the first 1 to 3 hours of this are VERY heavy on mango, it's spot on too, simply astounding. After it's had time to settle, the sage beings to mingle with the woods and patchouli, creating a very sophisticated sweetness with plenty of body to support it properly.
The top:
Sunny, syrupy and sticky mango oozes on your skin, exactly like the way ones fingers would smell right after digging into one and devouring it swiftly.
I've always loved mangos, and when i'm at the super market i always make sure to go and smell them (one can smell them through their tough skin quite easily). Meanwhile, sage and lemon dance methodically to the background music, waiting for mango to tucker itself out so it can move in and jazz things up a bit.
The heart:
A warm vanilla-chocolate type coffee swirls it's lush creamy and warm foam around freshly smushed tonka beans, consuming it into itself.
The coffee in this one is very similar to the coffee found in DKNY be delicious men, save much more bold and realistic. I get the chocolate in the coffee from it's bold sweetness, and the vanilla from it's realistic smoothness (remember coffee always SMELLS smooth, but it doesn't always TASTE smooth ;). )
The base:
(I know it's not listed, but i smell it)Cardamom is so sneaky to my nose, like oak moss it sometimes assists in the cleaning up of a fragrance, or lends a hand in making it dirtier.
Regardless of that, it ALWAYS makes a fragrance have more of a "natural, this is my real body odor" type of accord. Not like armpits, but in a way similar to the smell of washed warm skin.
sage is the accord offering up it's rich refined musk-esque, greenish harsh sweetness, with a touch of "dustiness", and as always brings this fragrance to a very satisfying dry-down. Sandalwood and musk lend the overall life of the scent "a foot to stand on" so to speak along with a pinch of sea-salt in the "aftersmell".
I approve
Smell: 9
Longevity: 8
Sillage: (First application) 8 (Drydown) 6.5
As this is my first review I will keep it short and with a fragrance I'm very familiar with. I picked up Polo Black about a year ago and it has been a staple in my collection. I started wearing cologne at the age of 14 with the original Polo (green bottle) that everybody bathed themselves in, and have been hesitant to try a Polo fragrance for a while. While it is not the most elegant, sporty, sexy, professional, fragrance in my arsenal, it always does the job on any day of the year for any occasion. The notes are very balanced leaving a clean, fresh scent of sandalwood and a light citrus note. It does not project offensively, but it does have a good staying power of at least six hours. Recommended for anybody over the age of 25 that may shy away from Polo.
one thing I've noticed after wearing this for a few months is that I don't necessarily "love" it's fragrance on my skin, but I definitely get a lot of compliments from men and women after about two hours into it. I definitely think it is a nice change from the original green Polo, with a more mature scent.
My fiance wore it on our first date and still does, so there's the good memory association : ). It's masculine but isn't on a power trip, nor does it take itself too seriously. I love the citrus.
I love this perfume. And I would totally fall head over heels for any guy who wore this.
I'm a woman at twenty and something about this cologne makes me weak in the knees. It's very similar to Drakkar Noir to me, but much less gourmand. I love it and my ideal man would wear this or something like it.
I find this cologne very odd. When i smell this on the tester at stores it smells very good, so i bought it. Right when i spray it on my skin it smells delicious, but the dry down smell is extremely weird in my opinion, i do not really like it. It is not very long lasting. smell=8.5
smell on skin=6.5
longevity=6
I dont know why i love this fragrance but i do. I find the balance between the mango and (even though its not in the list of notes)lavender very smooth.
I find it a very easy to wear anytime/anywhere and it always get a lot of comliments whilst wearing it.
Recently, i have been wearing a lot of fragrances that i probably would have dismissed during my initial fragrance quest (yes,basenotes.net can turn the most innocent of fragrance wearer into an absolute snob)and the simple reason is that at the end of the day i simply want to smell nice. So what if a fragrance is ubiquitous? I dont care if the droves wear,say, Boss in motion...it smells great!!!
I know there is a lot of negative comments regarding the longevity yet i have never had a problem.
My fiance got Polo Black as an unexpected Christmas gift for me. I didn't expect to like it, but since she always has, I figured I'd give it a fair shake. And what a pleasant surprise it was!
The opening isn't too strong, sharp, or heavy, even when applied with a little too much tenacity. The dry down, however, is absolutely fantastic on my skin and the longevity seems to last forever! I was totally blown away, especially since I didn't want to like it. I mean, it has the RL and Polo tags, and it's way too common. And this scent has gotten more praise from women around me than absolutely any other fragrance I wear. I figured it would be passe by now, but I guess not!
I realize that scents are different based on individual chemistry, but I'm honestly floored at how many women I know love this aroma, even though they probably smell it more consistently than most other colognes around. All of their husbands, boyfriends, uncles, sons, brothers, exes, etc. seem to wear it, but they still don't recognize it immediately.
Good job, RL! This one is definitely a keeper for me!
Reviews from me are now going to be on a pro/con type deal with number ratings. alright polo, your first test, Black
Pros: scent is very nice. completely inoffensive. the ladies dig it
Cons: skin scent (projection is lacking), same with longevity (it's lacking)
Numbers: 9/10 for smell. 3/10 for projection. 4/10 for longevity.
So much has already been said about Polo Black. It is not my favorite scent, but I don't understand all the negative comments. I certainly didn't have any type of negative reaction. I find the opening fresh, the middle green and enjoy the patchouli & woody (sometimes leathery) dry-down. Polo Black is not sweet, which is good because I dislike most sweet scents. Longevity is very good at +12 hours.
PB has a place in my rotation. I find it to be a very "professional" scent. The scent is not overbearing or loud. The sillage is not huge. It does not scream "cologne guy". The person wearing it can be taken seriously. I feel very comfortable wearing PB when meeting with senior leadership or high-level executives. I want to smell good, but I want to be sure to choose a "safe" fragrance that should not offend anyone. Overall a "Thumbs-up".
siliage is good but very close to the skin.... opening notes goes in a whif which is strong... Tangarine base does linger on.... fresh and sunny.. though Polo Green wins hands down in comparison.
Is it just me or do you guys also get that dirty, oily vibe from this? I got hints of native mangoes and A STRONG note of dirty oil hair from this. Try before you buy and consider the climate of your location.
I was presented a 100ml bottle of this EDT back in 2005 when I was touring Malaysia. And, that was it; I finished it and never bought another bottle.
I don't know why the notes are shown in stages, it really evolves in stages. But again, it's also true that the transformations between the opening, heart and drydown are not sharp. The first spray gives you an impression of concentrated ink for 4-5 seconds which, for the love of Ralph's name, goes away swiftly. Then the hint of lemon or lemon peel or some citrus are felt which is refreshing; this opening is pretty short lived.
Then the heart is clearly a peculiar thing, the listed notes don't show any berries or violet but my nose detects them along with sweet iced mango which stays around some time, may be 20 minutes.
The sandalwood (which is too mild to me), earthy patchouly and clean sage is detected after the heart fades. I don't know if I'm the first one but my nose really failed to detect tonka in the base note. Tonka isn't even discreet, it's just not there.
Having said that I feel the silage is unbelievably poor, it stays close to the skin basically. The longevity is high average. The smell is clean but it's nothing remarkable. And, that's the reason I never bought another bottle of it, and I know I won't ever buy another one.
In my opinion, this is a similar scent to Allure Sport for 3 reasons:
1. It is short lived.
2. It is a skin scent.
3. It smells fantastic.
Why can't it have the power of Polo Green?
5/10
I like double black alot more. I detect celery in this. It is nice but I expected more. I smelt in on a colleague years ago, liked it alot more back then.
I think this is good for the office, can be casual, maybe not romantic, definitely not for teens.
Hands down one of my go-to scents. Usable year round, day or night, though I wear it mostly in spring and summer. Cold, bright mango and cucumber lead to warm sandalwood and patchouli. Sillage is good but personal and not obtrusive. Professional, elegant office scent that transitions easily to an evening out, yet it's the one I also keep in my gym bag. This complex, delightful scent gets compliments from men and women alike, but they have to get close enough to smell it. A complete win by Ralph Lauren.
I really enjoy this fragrance a lot. It is actually one of my favorites. It is one of the freshest scents on my skin. It really is a super fresh smell on me for some reason. I really like it, and I get good longevity and projection from it too, which is rare i guess? Most colognes dont last on my dry skin, this one does. weird. thumbs up for me.
I own a 4.2 oz of it! lol I like big bottles.
I don't detect "Black" when I absorb this, although very crisp and clean smelling. For the stern man, but not the jerk. It can be kind to the nose, or overbearing to your senses. Careful not to over apply. Due to the concentration, its ridiculous to own a 4.2 oz bottle of this... unless its the only fragrance you wear.
Hi.
POLO BLACK?It is a symbol in RL young fragrances.Yes A nice young scent for any season of the year specially in SPRING/AUTUMN weather.quite Sweet and Casual.
This RL EDT is Fruity(mango) and Fresh at the begining.Soft and Romantic at the middle and upshot Warm in the end.in fact Fruity notes mixes well with the other notes and creates a very Yummy and Cute scent.
In my opinion is a forever attraction in this and truly makes you feel young beautiful.PB is Good for teenagers Too.one of those colognes Everytime you wearning it,Some people stop you on the street and asking what this fragrance is?However i still prefer DOUBLE BLACK!
Sillage?Ok
Longevity?Remarkabke on my skin.
7.5/10
Not a bad EDT, but despite their very crisp notes of wood and the freshness of citrus notes of tangerine, the middle phase and base notes are too soft and dry, so it loses all the power of the opening notes.
The longlasting of this EDT is too low in my skin, no more than two hours drive. I recommend testing the longevity of the fragrance before buying. Preferential use night out.
Great everyday use during the day. better in winter or fall. I recommend it but its not a stand out type of scent.
its very good but the best is 1million by paco rabanne its very attracative towards females
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.
Another wonderful piece from Ralph Lauren Polo.
The scent reveals itself as dark, dry herbs, a hint of fruit and a respectable amount of sweetness.
This perfume is elegant, classy. Perhaps best suited for the office, evening occasions and special occasions.
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.
Ordinary, Ordinary, and Ordinary
Nothing worth to mention.
Better be used as aftershave!
Boring …
خیلی معمولی و معمولی و معمولی و معمولی
هیچ چیز خاصی نداره که بخوام بگم
کسل کننده است
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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
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!
It should be stronger.
aint nuthin black about it.its a fresh cologne, not dark and sultry like. smells just like Subtil from Ferragamo. its straight tho
I love this one... It's so sexy!!
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
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.
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.
i don't like this one...
the smell of mango it's awfull!
I bought this one for my husband and I like it a lot...
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.
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.
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
its just WOW:)i like it a lot, its so...fashionable, and sexy, and modern and elegant:)
I personally love this one...the mango note is dominating...
It's ok, masculin and powerful but not the best from RL !
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* !!!!!!
I bought this one for my boyfriend...smells yummy!
