Polo Red Eau De Parfum Extreme

#1652 in my “Tour de Fragrance” Got this as a 2ml sprayette from scentswithsense.com. I liked Polo Red Parfum. This is much better. There seems to be some confusion about the notes. These are the notes from Ralph Lauren: Amber; Woody Notes; Leather Accord; Red Ginger; Vanilla Bourbon. This has a nice spiciness that I would attribute to red ginger. I find this a very attractive scent. But for me, unlike some reviewers, I’d wear this in daytime warm weather. The silage is arm’s length and there’s nothing about this that will offend anyone, so car pool, elevator, small office safe. I’m getting about five good hours on the skin before it’s just vanilla, which is typical longevity of all the Polo EDPs. I think it’s a daytime causal fragrance but you can certainly wear it anywhere and around the clock. Just doesn’t strike me as formal wear. More something you keep in your gym locker. Most of the sellers I usually go to aren’t stocking this yet. Amazon, Macy’s, Dillard, all want $135 for it which is about double what I’ve paid for the other Polo EDPs from sellers like Jomashop. So, I’m getting a bottle of this, but I’ll wait until other online retailers I use have it in stock where I expect pricing will be under $70. Good Luck and Good Hunting!

This is CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED on here. The ginger opens bright and fresh, then vanilla and leather close it out with actual refinement. Its shockingly better than you'd expect at this price point. Versatile, VERY long-lasting, and projects really well. Compliment count: my 3-year-old approved it, and so did the Costco door checker. Two demographics that don't lie. Only gripe is the bottle looks like it belongs in a gas station display case. Toss this juice in a YSL Private Line bottle and people would lose their minds. Don't let the packaging or these lame reviews fool you.

I find this a masculine slightly sparkly vibrant ginger and bourbon coming through a dark leathery accord which I quite like the feeling it gives me when I wear it. I consider this one a little bit underrated

This one just appeared out of nowhere. I was walking in Dillard's, and the gentleman who usually helps me in men's fashion was wearing a strong fragrance. It wasn't bad, but it was pretty overpowering. I asked him what he was wearing, and he said the new polo red. He showed me, and I bought it. I don't know if he oversprayed it (he said he just sprayed it twice), but it was projecting like a monster. I bought it, and when I wear it, I have to be careful not to overspray it. Do I like the scent? Yes. It is like every other vanilla scent out there. Nothing groundbreaking, but nice smelling.

I can't lie gang the first 5 mins are fucking harsh(I am not a ginger/spicy not fan). Although once I get past the first 15-ish minutes, it settles to a sexy, sensual, and sweet scent. I have been complimented on this one by all the office ladies who are my number one critics. So please don't let the shit tester strips scare you, spray it on skin and come back to it in 20 mins your situationship will thank you (first 20 mins)Song to match scent - Mr. Moustache by Nirvana (remaing time)Song to match scent - Wicked Games by The Weeknd
