Ralph Lauren has been a mainstay in fashion and perfume for several decades - long enough for some of my earliest memories of “cute older boys” to be tinged with the scent of Polo Blue.  Now, with the launch of Polo Black, another generation of little wanna-be hotties can get their smell on.  It is similar enough to the Polo I remember, but indeed with a lot less freshness and a more subtle side.  The scent is described as “A bold fusion of iced mango, silver armoise and patchouli noir.”  On the skin it has a nice green quality tinged with earthiness.  It’s certainly a cut above Cool Water!

And - the added bonus - the ad.  I thought at first it was Christian Bale, but research reveals it to be Nacho Figueras, an Argentinian polo player.  Too sexy!!!

Have you sniffed it? Would you or your significant other find it wearable?
