Polo Blue Gold Blend

I sell fragrances to a small group of people who are not avid collectors such as myself but they do enjoy a good fragrance at a decent price, and this is one of my best sellers recently. I owned Deep Blue Parfum and I got rid of it because it was extremely close to ADG Profondo but didn't perform nearly as well off my skin. So I recently sold another one of these and I snuck a single wearing out of the tester bottle they were purchasing. I know, I know I shouldn't have done that but I just really wanted to get in at least one full wearing before I pulled the trigger on a full bottle. This stuff is pretty close to the $60 mark even for a tester which is definitely on the higher end of designer pricing for me. Well I'm a little more than an hour into the first wearing right now and let me tell you, as someone who is definitely a "Blue fragrance enthusiast" I can tell you that this stuff is freakin awesome!!! Definitely the best in the Ralph Lauren Polo Blue line of fragrances, and even as good as the Ralph Lauren Polo Red Intense and Extreme, which are two of my favorite cool weather options. As much as you and I both probably wouldn't believe it, and definitely not coming from a Polo Blue flanker, for the first hour this stuff just gets better and better. I KNOW RIGHT? Usually that is where others in this line are getting ready to sign off. But this stuff is just getting good at that point. Now admittedly I don't have more than sample experience with the original Polo Blue EDP, but based solely on what I have smelled when wearing that one it's nothing remotely close to as good as this one. The Incense really goes well with this DNA, and I know that it's not listed in the note breakdown, but I'm definitely picking up on a really, really nice ambroxan note. They do have it listed on the breakdown for the Deep Blue Parfum, but I'm getting way more here than in that one, and this fragrance is frankly light-years ahead of that one in both composition and in performance. So if you want a more modern, much, much better performing version of the Polo Blue DNA look no further. You have definitely run across the only option to even consider at present.

Polo Blue made modern. Finally RL revives the scent. I get lots of very natural sage, melons, incense, cardamom, pepper. I think this one will do very well. I instantly purchased it. It smells fresh but extremely versatile. It’s so so soooo good! Edit: AMAZING drydown. Patchouli in the back. This is perfect for a PROPER comeback of polo blue edt. I always felt Parfum and the other flankers were underwhelming. Polo should’ve just released this instead of wasting time and money. I think there is also an almond note in the very deep base of this. Something gives it a slightly metalic drydown. or maybe im having a bad day. It's a good metalic though :D to add more: The incense here is better than bleu de chanel incense. Really well done RL. Hats off. Moderate sillage and it's lasting a lot longer on my skin than any polo blue flanker i've tried. edit: it lasted 10 hours today and i could still get whiffs of the drydown +++edit: really beautiful graprefruit in the drydown. better than Issey Miyake or Bleu de Chanel. One of the best and most natural grapefruit scents that keeps drawing you in, even after the opening is gone

Polo Blue Gold Blend Ralph Lauren I'm really impressed with this fragrance! I like it much better than Polo Deep Blue that I still give a like nod to as well. I can attest their is no redundancy in owning both. From the first sprays of the opening it's a true blue: citrussy, aromatic, fresh, yet slightly spicy from the pepper in the top. Then around the 1 hour mark the base notes of Incense, Amber, Patchouli and Vetiver begin to move in overlaying and as time continues to pass, transforming this fragrance into a scent that to me oozes sophistication. (Hence the Gold Blend label cap and band around the Blue bottle) Performance: well above average for me. 4-5 sprays (which at times I think is possibly borderline cloying, but no complaints yet ;) out the door no decant needed for me (which is unusual). Projects strong to the 3rd hour then a noticeable scent bubble to the 6th before fading more so to a skin scent with every passing hour but yet still a skin scent at the 12th hour mark... But don't take my word for it, grab a sample and see for yourself. Enjoy! :D

I dunno, to this day i personally think the original polo blue edt is still in another league compared to sauvage, Y, ect. Its blue technically but its like the "rich guy who wears polo green in the cooler months unironically"s blue fragrance. Anyways, this is polo blue getting the adg profumo treatment as far as the changes compared to the original. You probably would have the same opinion you do of the original wether that be love or hate. The notable differences here are #1 performance, this performs much better than the original edt which i usually get maybe 5-6 tops hours from and never projects too crazy. #2 is the additional/amped notes. The melon here isnt necessarily totally natutal but almost like the sweetness of a melon (not too sweet) combined with an almost mossy patchouli base. And alot of this IS base and its awesome. You can literally wear it anytime but in the summer this will project pretty strongly for hours, in a good way and it lasts all day plus as far as opening to totally gone. Props to Carlos Benaim, possibly best perfumer ever

Had to revise my post after a full wearing. This is a Benedict Arnold. The opening is outstanding. In the same family as Blue EDP, but different enough to own; however, the dry down is a traitor as it jumps into the Bleu de Chanel family. I guess it could be the offspring of the two; super cute at the beginning like Blue and then growing up to be like Bleu. I might try to layer the two old ones and see what happens, but it will not have the sage and incense opening that makes your teeth sweat. Longevity is par for the course for a Polo product. Fragrancelock or a good lotion needed to extend the life. Very warm fragrance but I'm not sure it's a summer only fragrance and I am not sure it's a classic aquatic either. Decent fragrance overall. I just wish the opening hung around the whole time.

This is a Great Fragrance and Flanker ! Fresh, Citrusy, Spicy and Woody. I received It as a Gift for New Year. I really enjoy it and I'm so happy that I have it in my collection. Unfortunately, It is discontinued ! It opens up with fresh spicy, citrusy , warm spices and herbal notes in the background then dry down is a bit smoky musky and woody. I do get the DNA of Original and the Ginger note is very vibrant in the opening and undertone, The Incense note is dominant in the dry down. Easy to wear and Easy to love. Polo Blue Gold Blend is A Combination of several perfumes Dylan Blue, Bleu de Chanel, ADG Profumo and Polo Blue Original. The Art of bottle design is very wonderful. Longevity is good. Highly Recommended. Two Thumbs Up Rating : 8.5 / 10

I smelt this one a few weeks ago. It's quite nice. I've never owned a Blue fragrance from Polo, but I feel like I should. I'll definitely need to revisit this one. I will say, it is certainly darker than the original Polo Blue, which I like. Gives it that slightly more versatile feel. The bottle is absolutely beautiful! I love the use of the golden insense, it really gives the fragrance that special touch. Edit: 4/13/19 I went out and bought this. I smelt it today again. I absolutely love this one. I guess the first time I smelt it, I was overwhelmed because I had been smelling fragrances all day. This is the flanker to buy from the Polo Blue line!

Gingery, fresh, incense, citric and fruity describes Polo Blue Gold Blend. It's a discontinued gem. My dad bought in 2019, but didn't like the smell and gave it to me earlier this year when I started getting into fragrances. It is by far the best flanker of the polo blue line. Arabic brands should make a dupe of this, like they did with YSL's La Nuit de L'Homme Bleu Electrique, another discontinued gem. Perfomance is also pretty good, solid 6-7 hours of longevity and good projection in the first hours. You can rock this one in pretty much every single occasion and it will give you compliments

Wow.... this beauty blew me out of the water! Having tried the original Polo Blue and found it too generic and common-smelling (your standard one-in-a-million scent), this indeed rocked my boat just right. Having grown tired of the 'old' Dior Sauvage, Dylan Blue and Bleu de Chanel, this blend was just perfect, smooth yet with a spicy edge, just like gold...

My favorite part of this fragrance is 2-4 hours in where the pepper, sage, and incense are prominent. The profile during that time reminds me of Armani Encens Satin, but Blue is not as dry as Encens Satin. I've been wearing this off and on for awhile now and this is probably one of their best fragrance releases behind Purple Label.

I have all the Polo Blues and this one is at the top. I love EDP, and this one reminds me of that one but the Gold Blend adds a nice depth with the ensence, amber and patchuli to the EDP. I nice blend of fresh, fruity, and spice.

The reviews feel off. This is not something I'd ever wear in the summer. Great versatile fall/spring and even winter scent. I'm happy I tested this in advance. Will update this later.

Polo Blue EDT OG is my favorite all-time aquatic freshie - but this one is better. A true Gold version: smooth yet spicy, crisp yet sophisticated. For true Polo Blue fans!

Smells like a blend of Polo Blue EDT, Polo Blue EDP, and Bleu De Chanel EDT (because of the added ginger and incense notes). I really like it. Bring it back!

Very good blend of being fresh, sweet and mature. Really noticable and interesting. Performance and projection are very good.

I miss this scent so much. It’s such a great scent that carried me through high school. Really sad to see it discontinued.

This is a very Sexy, Romantic perfume to my nose one of the best male fragrances ever made, makes me swoon.

This is basically the OG. Lasts all day.

This IS the BEST polo blue , period!

If I had to pick the best but synthetic smelling fragrance it would be this. It is definitely the more unique Polo fragrance. Good for daily use, it's an "I wear cologne" type of scent but not necessarily bad. Can be described as fresh citrusy but slightly spicy, enough to bring out the MAN in the fragrance. Very very very long lasting projection, probably the longest in my collection right now next to Dior Homme Sport. And I always compare these two together even though they're nothing alike because I always describe them the same way. Both fresh and citrusy but with a sprinkle of spice that adds some boldness, amazing performance and longevity. This one? Very versatile. Almost any occasion. I'm also a Ralph Lauren man myself and own a lot of Ralph Lauren so I see myself wearing this with a lot of my outfits. You can definitely see the typical Ralph Lauren man wearing this. Just fits the vibe. I would say Polo 67 is SLIGHTLY better however in my opinion and embodies that better.
