Ralph Lauren Polo Oud Eau de Parfum is a rich, warm, and sophisticated woody-spicy fragrance for men launched in 2023. It stands out as a unique flanker in the Polo lineup, bridging the gap between classic Western masculine perfumery and traditional Middle Eastern fragrance notes.
The scent reimagines the bold, green heritage of the original 1978 Polo Green by swapping the sharp pine and tobacco notes for a smooth, resinous, and approachable oud.
Scent Breakdown & Olfactive Pyramid.
- Top Notes: Pink Pepper and Clary Sage. This creates a vibrant, slightly fresh, and aromatic opening with a subtle kick of spice.
- Heart Notes: Cinnamon, Rose, and Orange Blossom. The heart adds a velvety, slightly sweet floral texture that rounds out the sharper edges of the spices.
-
Base Notes: Oud, Incense, Guaiac Wood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. The dry-down is deeply woody, smoky, and resinous, giving the fragrance its dark, masculine character.
- Longevity: It offers great longevity, typically lasting between 7 to 9 hours on the skin.
- Sillage: The projection is moderate but persistent. It creates an alluring aura around the wearer rather than completely overpowering a room.
- Weather: Thanks to its heavy, ambery, and smoky characteristics, it is ideal for fall and winter or cooler evening climates.
- Occasions: It leans formal and mature, making it excellent for evening wear, date nights, or professional environments where you want to project confidence and sophistication.
