Polo Blue
by Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lauren Polo Blue is a timeless, fresh aquatic fragrance designed for daytime wear, particularly ideal during spring and summer. The opening features crisp notes of cucumber, melon, and mandarin orange, creating an invigorating, juicy sensation that feels reminiscent of a clean, cool shower. As it develops, herbal elements like basil, sage, and geranium emerge, adding aromatic depth, while the base settles into a soft, warm suede and musky woody accord that lends elegance and subtle sensuality. The fragrance is universally approachable, making it a reliable choice for casual outings, office environments, or warmer days. It serves as a personal signature for many, offering a subtle yet distinctive presence that feels both modern and classic. The scent is often praised for its clean, refreshing profile that balances fruitiness with green herbal nuances and a leather-like dry down, leaving a fleeting but memorable trail on the skin.
