Polo Double Black by Ralph Lauren

Damani Code

The matte black bottle and logo support the mask upon this scent. It is mysterious, rich and lurking. It does nto smell like honey but IMO has the concept: rich, suble, the closer you get the sweeter the smell. Perfect for the intimate moments.

eyeteach12 mentioned Code. This could be a cross between Code and Emporio Armani Night He, but more restrained then those two. Code is more pleasant though, and I'd take it. Aeternitas said "Dark, enigmatic", and this seens reasonable. In my opinion better than Polo Black, where the rotten mango smell becomes very disturbing during hot weather (and it supposed to be a fresh scent). When smelled next to Polo Black, Double Black really seens to be an oriental.

I love the opening notes, but that's about it. They don't last long at all, and the base reminds me of a weak Armani Code. This would have been a killer cologne with the opening notes being the base notes and if there was some longevity and sillage to it. Sorry, but this one FLOPS. I will use Code over this one any day!!!!

Polo double black is a classy aromatic fragrance. It fulfills a missing gap in sillage and longevity of Polo Black, IMHO. Even though Double black smells similar to its brother, I find it more potent, projective and longer-lasting. I just noticed that I always fall for fragrance with Cardamom and Nutmeg and so does Double Black.

Cardamom allows a fragrance to be masculine yet romantic in its sweetness, IMHO.

I strongly agree with "alexkos" that Double black can be a good alternative to PR 1 Million. I would recommend "Diesel Fuel For Life" too for a sake of sweetness despite amber being a source.

Sillage is great on my skin and longevity is incredibly long. I can still smell it on my scarf I prayed on a couple of weeks ago.

All in all. 10/10 for me. Ideal for men needing to wear less common fragrance. Thank you for reading :)

El polo double black es un perfume que para mi gusto lo encuentro demasiado fuerte cuando te lo acabas de poner huele algo agradable pero a medida que pasan las horas el olor se pone muy especiado exageradamente y es por eso que a mi no me gusta para, ahora el polo black es lo mejor que a tirado al mercado ralph lauren me encanta.

There was Polo Black, but it seems as if we've subtracted Black rather than adding another. I don't detect "Black" when I absorb this, but sweet-spicy and subtle. Something the perfect gentleman might wear. If chivalry has a scent, it smells like Polo Double Black.

Purchased my first Polo Double Black without testing it about 15mins ago. I pulled it out of the box to show a friend. It slips out of my hands onto his kitchen floor, and breaks the neck of the bottle. The entire contents were on the floor in seconds. I was shocked!! Smells amazing, and so does his kitchen. Going back to get another....

Goofy

polo double black is very alluring , strong and long lasting .

minister smellgood

This is a refined, classy and sexy cologne which is to be worn when you got on a shirt and tie

alexkos

Update: Very good alternative for people, who like Paco Rabanne 1 Million, but feel it too sweet and feminine.

alexkos

I bought it yesterday at a wonderful discount and I am so happy for it.
Very warm, sweet at the beginning, but only for few minutes. Masculine, but not hard or sharp scent, just some great aroma, that comes and goes from time to time. Perfect combination, not rich in ingredients, and still doesn't smell cheap.
Can be worn from every age at every time, but best for late autumn and winter or cold countries like Denmark, Sweden, Russia. Interesting, long-lasting, the man, who is wearing it can smell it now and then, for few seconds, but it's something great.
In close rooms smells very good, not overpowering and it almost doesn't change it's scent. Getting better and better.
Can be reapplied, but not earlier than four hours. Smells amazing with my skin-chemistry and suits me good. Jeans and shirt and converse, or formal suit - doesn't matter. Great, great and again great.
I was little bit skeptic about perfume of American designer, but this one is superb. Better than any other Ralph Lauren scents. Get it, you'll not be disappointed.
I forgot to say. It smells very close to L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme.

Think about it. Spicy Tropical Fruits, Roasted Coffee and Woodsy Notes = Vacation. This is our FAVORITE on him.

Hint: It's an EDT vs. EDP, therefore might apply a.m. and p.m.

scenturian

Start is interesting with fruits and spices.
Base reminds me chanel allure. Am i rite or not?
And it is quite similar to its predecessor.

I just got this cologne today and I must say that I am very impressed.

The top notes of pepper and mango are very evident, but I do not believe them to be overpowering. The contrast between these two makes for a simple yet surprising scent.

After this it fades into a much more mellow, subtle scent consisting primarily of roasted coffee. This lasts for only a few minutes, and is the most subtle (and hardest to smell) part of the cologne.

The base notes are my favorite part. Although the sillage is not powerful by any means, the woody aspects of the base are to die for. They are clearly woody, and slightly sweet, for a soft but sophisticated scent. It reminds me of a log cabin in the woods at night.

I would recommend this cologne for evening or night. It is intelligent, calm, and woodsy. I wouldn't think of this so much as a "going clubbing" cologne, but moreso as a poetry reading or art museum cologne.

One of my favorites! Very intricate fruity/spicy/woody combination. Double Black smells classic but with a modern twist. It's very warm and slightly heavy, great for an evening in the fall or winter.

andy

i like how this is a fresh oriental, great to replace the citrus scents and smells nothin like the other Polos

dancam86

I like it. It´s very sweet/fruity and spicy at the same time, the coffee note smells delicious and its lasting power it´s unbelievable. I believe the Polo line has done a great job clearing the paradigm that says that all American perfumes smell cheap.

Ralph Lauren = Class.

urobian

addictive, sexy and versatile.. oriented to wear at evening, the spicy vibe make it heavy for day time, but is a really nice fruity-woody fragance.

great choice, u wont be wrong with this.

originaldeftom

Love this classic scent with a modern twist: Mango in a man's perfume, "hello"! Just brilliant for a non-in-your-face everyday scent. Smelled it first when I flew to LA, so it will always remind me of my glamorous time in LA. It smells indeed black but it is a wooden floral fruity peppery scent. Very understated, classy, yet young in attitude. This would be Ralph Lauren's smell in a bottle and I agree with the other review that it is equally well worn with a suit and tie or a pair of jeans and jumper/ sweater. Re-apply generously!

acc

a great classic for everyday use. it is very versatile. can be worn with suit and tie or jeans and shirt.

Alan

For me and a lot of people i know think of this as another cologne out there.its good,Hate the pepper,but i like the base notes,but the base notes to me are getting annoying.

manutdforever

I absolutely love this fragrance! The only gripe I have with it is that the VERY addictive top notes disappear far too quickly. And thereafter the scent disappears within 3 hours, at least on me.

ticalau

I tried it a couple of times... but on my skin just don't last 2 mutch... and it's not so intens either :( Polo black it's mutch intens and powerful on my opinion !

I don't lose on many blind purchases, but this one is pretty bad. The sillage is even weaker than Polo Blue and the only scent I get from it is a lightly perfumed B O. That's all I can get from this one, under-arm sweat with a sweet-ish cologne note that is indistinguishable because it is too weak. I don't get any fruit, spice, or coffee, just B O. I can't say it reeks because it's not strong enough to project it's stink, I have to get really close to it to smell anything at all. I will throw my bottle out, not give it away, because I wouldn't want anyone around me to smell like Polo Double Black. It's one of the worst I have.

rebella

My husband have tried this one, and it smells amazing on him. A must-buy.

Aeternitas

It sure is masculine. Dark, enigmatic, and long-lasting from the first spray. My boyfriend loves it!

promoscanner

Nice and simple. Great masculine scent.
