Polo Sport

Ralph Lauren Polo Sport Men EDT opens with a moderate projection of aldehydes, spicy, woods, and citrus accords. The aldehydes are a fantasy, airy, clean and fresh note; the mint and ginger create a fresh and spicy prominent touch; the neroli, bergamot, mandarin orange, and lemon blend their accords into a note that is closer to the bergamot with a pinch of sweetness; the lavender, jasmine, geranium, and rose, are a floral touch, from them the lavender is the prominent note, it contributes to the freshness of the scent with its clean-like accord. The woods are a noticeable accord, the Brazilian rosewood adds a deep rich woody note, slightly spicy, and the cedar its characteristic fresh green and wood note; the guaiac wood and sandalwood are just woody support notes without any significant participation. The seagrass is the last of the prominent notes, a marine, aquatic and salty accord. The musk and amber are soft projecting accords but have almost no presence as notes. The most noticeable opening to dry-down changes are, the citrus notes are more prominent during the opening, but they tone down towards the dry-down; the rest of the notes remain from opening to dry-down. Once Ralph Lauren Polo Sport Men EDT has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, airy (aldehydes), spicy (mint, ginger), woody (rosewood, cedar) fragrance with floral (lavender) and soft citrus accords. The fragrance feels airy, clean, cold, diurnal, fresh, high-quality, intense, marine, masculine, playful, rare, fresh spicy, sporty, ultra-fresh, versatile, white, woody, zesty, and very pleasant.

Well, this is my signature scent (should I be embarrassed to admit that?) so I guess I should review it. It was actually my older brother's signature scent first. He was the first one to buy it back in the mid 90s. It was all the rage, I suppose, at Club USA and The Limelight and other clubs where he used to hang out on weekend nights. Me, I was more of a stay-close-to-home kinda' guy: my weekends were spent at home or at the gym or at my friends house or drinking in the park or at whichever local bar was letting teens in that week. But one still had to smell good right? And since the fragrance was free (I was stealing his stash one schpritz at a time), why not? Well, I got hooked. And I didn't have to force myself to like it--this was a great scent; and it still is. I may "evolve" to the very similar Polo Blue Sport when my current bottle of Polo Sport is done but the smell of this will always remind me of...well, ME! So what is Polo Sport? It's...clean. But more than that, it's the feeling of going from dirty to clean--like a fresh shower on a summer day after a long morning at the gym. You just feel like, "ahhhhh. Now I can interact with other humans." Was that a nebulous enough description? To be more specific, it opens up with a minty citrus deliciousness mellowed by seaweed (nowadays they call it "sea grass") that dries down to lavender. And don't think "sushi" when you hear seaweed, think "aquatic". Yeah, the aldahydes are there throughout but they don't scream "synthetic" (it's no more synthetic than any other scent out there; i.e., they all are); rather, they scream, "clean". They are what puts a soapy smell in soap and they are what puts the "clean" smell in this scent. The other florals are in the middle with the lavender; the musk is more subliminal. All in all, it was a masterpiece when it was introduced and IMHO, it's a masterpiece today. Proof of its masterpiece credentials lie in the fact that the nose here is Harry Fremont (CK One, Kenneth Cole Black) so don't think of this as a flanker in today's sense (where houses make ten similarly-named spinoffs if they hit a home run with one scent). This was a flanker, but it was a flanker before flankers were called flankers. In other words, it was not an attempt to capitalize on the name (Encre Noire Sport? Really?), it was a purposeful (and very successful) attempt to capitalize on a scent by making a sportier version. They don't make fragrances like this anymore--and I mean that seriously. The don't make frangrances like this PURPOSELY because it lasts all day (and then some); longevity is off the chart and one bottle will last you a year. It also projects like crazy and you'll get lots of comments from the ladies for the pleasant scent. You won't hear a lot of, "sexy" but you will get lots of "nice", "delicious", "relaxing", etc. It might be a bit too loud for today's sensibilities and might come across a little strong at work or other enclosed settings. But there is still a place for it: going out for a picnic at the park, a day at the lake or beach, a boat trip, or any other outdoor activities--physical or not. And there will always be a place for it on my cologne shelf.

The Original Polo Sport.. A great fragrance that we will all miss... One of the classic fragrance designers, Ralph Lauren, has produced a number of scents we have grown to love. It is too bad that some of these fragrances have run their course and "put out to pasture" - so to speak. Polo Sport is one of these fragrances that became a classic, but with time, has become increasingly hard to find. Perhaps it, too, has been discontinued. I recently purchased this fragrance online and could hardly await arrival of the scent that became popular in the mid-90s - as a mid-40s guy (and still roguishly handsome) - I remember this time period fondly... Out of the bottle Polo Sport presents a complexity of notes, but settles into simplicity of citrus, fruity, and "woodsy" notes. A classic scent that is breathes clean, fresh, and distinguished. Well done, Mr. Lauren..!! While the longevity and projection/sillage of this new bottle is average, it seems that bottles produced in the late 90s or early 00s, the fragrance lasted longer with greater sillage. There have been comparisons to younger siblings, "Red, White, and Blue" and "Polo Blue Sport" - I am not sure I get those same notes. Each are great fragrances, but very much different than this blend. Polo Sport has plenty of "Wow Factor" (compliments from the opposite sex) potential. The first day I wore this, I did not receive any compliments, but due to it's fresh and clean wake, the potential is there. One of the beauties about Polo Sport is the versatility or flexibility - perhaps tailored more for Spring and Summer, I feel confident the fragrance can be worn any time of year and for any occasion. It also can be a favorite for all ages - those of us who grew up with Polo Sport and the younger audience who want to feel clean and fresh. The bottle is an exceptional and classic design - typical Ralph Lauren.. As mentioned, I purchased this online. That said, the packaging is average at best. I, generally, am not a "conspiracy theory" type of guy, but I have pondered the thought of authenticity of this purchase. (I will add the purchase was through a very reputable source..) Regardless, the packaging is average or modest. Speaking of the purchase, Polo Sport can still be found moderately priced. My final tally of Polo Sport is 4.3 stars out of 5. Yes, there may be better fragrances out there - even I have those that rank higher - but Polo Sport is truly a classic fragrance that I enjoy. I highly recommend adding to your collection - or for us 40+ more distinguished gentlemen (and I use that term 'loosely'..), replenishing our cologne cabinet with a new bottle of Polo Sport. The Daily I.M. - The best thing in the world, is the world itself (from one of my favorite movies). Make your life count...

So, I got this again to revisit this classic, unique gem of the 90's. Seeing the reviews before me, I had no idea there were 2 versions of this. With that said, and for those who are looking to get this again, look for the Cosmair version ( There are many on eBay ) I have the Luxury Fragrances one, and, while they do smell exactly the same, the performance and silage are opposites. This new one, once you put it on, within 30 min to an hour, it seems to be completely gone. Keyword: "Seems" I do notice that it is still there, lingering, very close to the skin, where as the original, was a beast that you can smell all around for hours. So, with that said, If you don't mind basically paying double for the original, it's worth it. This is a gem and stands on it's own. It's one of the most perfect, blue, aqua scents you will ever come across. If you don't mind that it basically becomes a skin scent shortly after applying, then the new formulation will be fine. Personally, I will be going for the Cosmair one in the future. Spring & Summer is best for this daytime gem. ***UPDATE*** I have to add this after wearing this for a week. I never condone getting clones but, after seeing how many times I had to re-apply this new version to be able to enjoy it like I used to enjoy the original, I'm really recommending people get a clone of this. It really pisses me off when houses reformulate and keep the same price on their fragrances like this. To change it up a bit is one thing, to kill the longevity & power of it is another. ***Update 2025*** So the week is coming up where I will be wearing this again for the Spring and, while I bought a clone, I compared the two and, its just not the exact same ( great job but still not having that stringent smell like the OG has ) It's the clone that Alexandria does... it's a softer version overall of the original. With that said, thought of a better idea where I can be satisfied overall with the purchase. Bought an atomizer collection from Amazon and going to re-apply throughout the day when the fragrance starts to die off instead. The fragrance is lasting 3 hours at best at the time of trying it today. Damn pathetic compared to how long it used to last. But yea, thought I'd throw that out there in case someone else come across the same issue and wonders what to do. I still don't like, or appreciate that the performance has taken such a hit, so again, keep that in mind when thinking of buying this.

Polo Sport: A Timeless Scent That Still Scores Major Points (But the New Formula Needs a Penalty Kick) Remember dial-up internet, slap bracelets, and that undeniable urge to collect every single Pokemon card? If you do, then the opening whiff of Polo Sport by Ralph Lauren is like a nostalgia-fueled uppercut straight to the feels. This iconic 90s fragrance isn't just a relic of a bygone era, though – it's a timeless classic that still packs a punch (or should I say, a serve) today. The Good Stuff: Scent Profile: Imagine a crisp spring morning after a light rain. That's the vibe. Fresh citrus notes of bergamot and mandarin orange mingle with invigorating mint and lavender, creating an undeniably clean and energetic aroma. The heart is where the magic happens – a blend of seagrass, ginger, and jasmine adds a touch of aquatic depth and unexpected warmth. Finally, the base settles into a comforting musk and sandalwood, leaving you feeling confident and ready to tackle anything. Nostalgic Allure: Let's be honest, a part of Polo Sport's appeal is the pure 90s swagger it evokes. Think varsity jackets, baggy jeans, and that "can-do" attitude that defined the decade. But here's the thing: this fragrance transcends its era. The clean, sporty scent is universally appealing, even for those who weren't rocking a Tamagotchi back in the day. Versatility Champion: Polo Sport isn't just for the gym rats or weekend warriors. This versatile fragrance is equally at home in the office, on a date, or even a casual night out. It's one of those scents that just works, no matter the occasion. The Caveat (But Don't Let It Foul You!): Heads up, fragrance aficionados: the new formula isn't quite the same as the OG Polo Sport. It's lighter, and the longevity isn't as impressive. But fear not! If you can hunt down a vintage bottle online or snag one from a lucky thrift store find, you're in for a treat. The original formula is where the true magic lies. Final Score: Despite the new formula's slight fumble, Polo Sport remains a champion in the men's fragrance game. Its timeless scent, nostalgic charm, and versatile appeal make it a must-have for any guy's collection. Just remember, if you want the full 90s experience, go vintage. But hey, even the new formula is a solid player – just don't expect it to win the World Cup of longevity.

★★★★★ I have reviewed this fragrance before, but since I purchased a vintage (Cosmair) bottle that is getting harder and harder to find, I needed to be more elaborate straight away. Let me start by saying that I have tried (and own) many -m a n y- summer themed fragrances, both niche and designer. Let me name a few: Profvmvm - Aqva Di Sale, Profumi del Forte - Tirrenico, Lili Bermuda - South Water, Kenzo Pour Homme, Bvlgari - Aqva & Aqva Marine, Tom Ford - Oud Minerale & Soleil Blanc, CK - Escape, Puig - Aqua Quorum etc... Nothing, and I mean it, nothing manages to provide the profile of an ideal summer fragrance like Polo Sport, which is a scent that is invigorating, aloof & classy, easy to wear but with enough depth to be alluring and distinctive at the same time. I can't describe how it smells like by naming notes, but I can tell you that to me it evokes images of a swimming pool, sea spray, 90s inflatable toys and an abstract image of a sunny tennis court. I was desperate to find the vintage version again, since the current formula is a failure. I was using Aqua Quorum for a while as a substitute, but it is not the same quality of a fragrance, it lacks the class and originality of Polo Sport and -more importantly- the nostalgia. The amount of compliments this one gets me proves that this perfume does what a perfume should do: evoke a memory & make you and those around you feel good. A perfume that is often labeled as synthetic, generic and boring by perfume enthusiasts, which proves that snobs are far more than actual perfume reviewers. I'm glad Tania Sanchez agrees with me in The A-Z Guide. The 90s were all about the uplifting and summer fresh, and this little gem is the king of it all. You don't need any niche scent that claims to contain 100% real ambergris or seaweed extract to be your summer companion, you just need a scent that has a solid and distinctive concept, and in this case, you get a scent that doesn't smell like seaweed, or citrus, or sand, but more like an abstract vision of what a man smells best during the summer. Distinctive, suitable for all occasions and classy, only in its Cosmair edition. Thank you, Harry Fremont, for your vision and for giving me the best olfactory memory of the 90s. *drops mic*

So I finally pulled the trigger, and ordered a 125 ML vintage version (Batch code tells it's from 2002) from eBay. Fingers crossed! This is my FIRST TIME EVER designer bottle. This is what really started my fragrance journey. This is my first love. I was gifted RL Polo Sport in 2000, along with its incredible deo-stick. Now let me tell you this, even the deo-stick was as potent as a cologne. No kidding. And yes, just like many other fragrances, RL Polo Sport kind of died with the reformulations. I remember the scent very clearly, that it wasn't your typical blue aqua juice. This is why I trust all the reviews on vintage Nautica's Voyage, and can envision that being a very rich scent (even today it is but...) back in the days. In 90s and early 00s, the fresh-citrus-aquatics were definetely strong. Now when you hear these words like fresh, aqua etc., it sounds bad, referring to light, gym-wear skin scents. I'm now hoping to update my emotional review once I see again my first love, and write down the differences. Note: I have used the new formulation (2 bottles) so I'm confident to make comparison. Again, fingers crossed! Update: After 2 weeks use of the Cosmair bottle (dates back to '02) I must admit I am a bit disappointed with the performance but very satisfied with the scent. Either I was too emotional about being positive about the longevity, or the fragrance did not age well. It could even be that Cosmair 00s formulation is already degraded one. It does not seem to make much difference than the current bottle in terms of performance (I get around 5 hours before it fades almost completely), but there is definetely a difference of roundness and depth. Long story short, get the vintage one if you can find at reasonable prices, otherwise current formulation is not a total suck up.

I'm basing this review off of a vintage bottle acquired from eBay. On first spray, there's a strong, pungent muskiness that honestly took me off guard a bit. Immediately after that, the seagrass note kicks in, and stays for about ten minutes during what I would consider Polo Sport's marine phase. Then after that, it dries down to what you get for the rest of the wearing experience, which is a pleasant, citrusy, musky, easy-going fragrance. Very traditionally masculine. And, don't let the blue bottle fool you. There are marine facets to the fragrance, but it is primarily "green". All those green notes in the breakdown above are the true stars of this composition. At first, I thought that maybe the bottle had turned, but I've since come to realize that I'm pretty much getting the entire fragrance all at once in the opening. Vintage Polo Sport is one of those fragrances that hits you with everything its got, then unwinds to show you all of its parts. It is also undeniably 90's; you can smell the DNA of other 90's fragrances like Paco Rabanne's XS, Chanel's Platinum Egoiste, CK's Eternity, and more. Admittedly, I haven't smelled the modern formulation of Polo Sport, and from everything I've heard, it seems like there's no reason for me to go out and get a bottle of that one. I must have some kind of affinity for the 90's, because every scent I've gotten from that decade has been very enjoyable so far. Overall, I'm glad I got this!

Hello fragrance fam, on today's reformulation guide were covering Polo Sport for Men by Ralph Lauren EDT. Sport, is an aromatic scent with aquatic touches. It's similar to scents like Cool Water by Davidoff. Sport has received many reformulations throughout the years. But In terms of the best versions of Sport, we can summarize it into two categories. 1. Pre-2006: The batches produced by Cosmair are the most well regarded. They should have a higher concentration of notes like oakmoss and aquatic notes in the formula. The atomisers on these bottles will be chrome and on the batch/box it will have "natural spray" typed. 2. Post-2006 (May also have Luxury Product batches that overlap with cosmair versions 2000-2006): These batches will all be manufactured by Luxury Products. Every bottle will now have blue atomisers instead of chrome. On the box/bottle it will say "Spray vaporizer" instead of natural spray. *I know there were mass fragrance reformulations around 2008, 2016 and 2022, so I would consider the older the versions, closer to the original scent profile. Modern batch codes can be checked via a batch website online. Often with shorter codes meaning older bottles, 6 digits or less. Hope this helps and enjoy the journey! * USA, visit our web store VintageDecants If you would like to sample this fragrance in it's vintage formulation, along with hundreds of other discontinued and rare fragrances to choose from.

Based on experience i only got a compliment on this on one instance and its not a mind blowing one as the person simply told me that the perfume i am wearing is nice. This i would attribute to the fact that i know being a 90's scent this is already something that is familiar with almost everyone who are inclined to fragrances. I remember smelling this first from people i don't know personally so I'm not able to ask for the name of the cologne. I was in search of its name for the longest time and when i got the chance to smell it again and confirm through my olfactory memory that it is polo sport by ralph lauren i was so happy that finally i will get to enjoy the scent i have been wishing to be my signature scent for my lifetime. Unfortunately the outstanding sillage is no more present and perhaps being a classic cologne people already grew out of it, Also for the price range it is something not worth keeping considering the performance of the product nowadays. Would that change my perception of this cologne from being loved to dislike? No i will forever love the scent but i wont buy this fragrance again.

★★★★★ There is a sea of sport and lightweight fragrances, a sea full of similar smelling modernized scents. Ralph Lauren Polo Sport is the only sport fragrance that smells sporty and has an unmistakable character. Minty aldehydic opening invigorates and literally wakes you up with a play on citrus and lavender, leaving you with a trail of fresh bitterness. As it progresses, seaweed and other green and woody notes make it greener and woodier, while a subtle sweetness is singing in the background. Musk is slightly apparent in the drydown, but the scent stays fresh until the end. Very thoughtful and genuine blend which as a result is more of a feeling than several distinguishable notes. The vintage Polo Sport that I own has a longevity of 6 hours with good sillage for the first 1-2 hours. The main difference with the current formula is the depth, which the current one lacks. Unique, serves it's purpose, boyish sporty and fresh. The staple of the 90s for me, and always a go-to during spring and summer fragrance!

Like others, I bought this recently more out of nostalgia, as this was my first "signature" cologne (and deodorant) in the mid to late 90s. Still smells mostly the same, the lemon/lavender/mint opening is really uplifting and original in my mind. The dry down is my favorite part. I (like others) remember more seaweed back in the 90's, but I see less of it as an improvment as I always used find the sea grass smell a little off. If your want to smell fresh and clean, this is the best in my mind. It's strong and last all day...still love it.. I guess the question is...would you prefer the new polo blue EDP aqua or the vintage vibe of Polo Sport? Kinda liking the latter right now even though I like the former a lot too...

Ive had a new bottle (2015+), i currently own both a cosmair bottle from near release in 1994 and even a small bottle of "prototype" polo sport from before the fragrance officially released. The old one is way better. Youre welcome. What i suspect is that the "seagrass" accord was neutered. I dont think theres alot if any actual oakmoss in the vintage, but it sure comes off more mossy as a vibe. Im sure its evernyl and the like but it just makes a big difference for me compared to the 2015+ bottle i had. Someone described the newer ones as "crisp"...while crisp isnt bad persay, the old one wasnt crisp, it was thicker and as mentioned mossy. Still worked for the gym and all that, just a little elevated by that aspect

This is one of the 4 men frangrances I can still clearly recall from memory and remember how they smell. Obviously any of them reminds me of a different crush in my teen years. Polo Sport in particular is the first male scent that ever got my attention. One of my school mates wore this, and has helped a lot to draw my attention to him. I remember it to be very fresh (aquatic, not citrusy) but spicy at the same time and overall unique but really pleasant. I've read a couple of reviews here that say that nowadays the scent is more "chemical", but I suppose this has happened to many of the designer / mainstream perfumes. Anyway, I have very lovely (and sexy) memories of this one.

RL Polo Sport was one of my first fragrances as a kid in the 90's. Reminds me of summer camp, because I had a bottle with me then. I wore it a few years back and the scent was pretty much the same, so I don't really agree with the reformulation arguments I've seen. Think of a super fresh, soapy (Irish Spring / Coast), slightly minty, and cedar scent at the base. The atomizer is God awful, but this is a really good wake up and zingy shower scent. Great as a gym scent if you're looking for a decent one. Projection is decent for the first hour or two, but it lacks longevity. Pretty much a wood skin scent after a few hours, but you can just reapply.

Definitely a magical, feel-good scent for me. One of the first fragrances I was gifted back in the 90s. Just a fun fresh fragrance that in some ways bridged the gap between Cool Water and Tommy Hilfiger Cologne. I've tried it a few times in recent years but I don't think it's quite the same. No doubt reformulated due to ingredient constraints, it seemed lighter and fresher than before. Still, I'm surprised anyone could hate this scent but that's the interesting thing about fragrances. Cheapie JS Navy Blue by Jeanne Arthes is quite similar though with an extra dose of mint and fewer floral notes.

It's gonna be hard to take the nostalgia goggles off for this one, cause this was my dad all throughout my childhood. Even 20 years later, he's never quite varied much from good old Polo Sport. I can see why: it's a likeable, unpretentious scent, very much in that 80's fruity-marine fougerr vein of stuff like Aspen and Cool Water, but with just a bit more oomph. Almost like a hippy-surfer variant on the theme. My father, a bit of a wild child himself (and a surfer in his youth), pulled it off perfectly. If you're a laid back, friendly kind of cool, give it a try

This was one of the first Designer colognes I bought in my early 20's (around 2010). It was my number one blind grab spray. I won't get into the note break-down, but Polo Sport is an excellent definition of a fresh blue scent, better in cooler temperatures. I would say this goes better for a gathering with friends or as an office scent, but not for a date night spray. The projection and sillage were great, though not cloying or oppressive unless you were in the baking sun too long. I'd definitely recommend this as a must try at least once for every man.

I have been addicted to this scent since I was a youngster. This absolutely is my Number One amongst masculine Eaux de Toilette! IMHO, it is second to none. My signature scent without a doubt. The fragrance is exceptionally long lasting (on my skin, it will hang on even 12 hours) and is characterized by the sillage that certainly is greater than the so-called average in the case of mainstream juices. Incidentally, women really like it. Obviously, when a man in their neighbourhood sprays himself with Ralph Lauren Polo Sport.

Before niche fragrances... there was this blue bottle My very first perfume, and for years, my signature scent. Polo Sport was the smell of the late 90s and early 2000s: fresh out of the shower, sporty clothes, school in the hot Rio de Janeiro, summer vacations, PS1 afternoons and that feeling that life was somehow simpler. The mint, citrus and aquatic accord still hit instantly with pure nostalgia. Even today, it remains one of the most iconic sporty freshies ever made. Timeless in its own very specific way.

My first proper perfume purchase in 2002, I may be prejudiced towards polo sport. This is a clean, fresh, high quality, smooth fragrance for summers. The quintessential gym fragrance, it’s a classic. Wear it at home or gym or sports or just to feel young. This is youth in a bottle. Performance is still decent, I can catch a Whif or two even after 6 hours. Silage is below average. Tbh, miles ahead in performance compared to its rival from 2002, Acqua Di Gio. Love it!

During college days, i asked my Mom to buy this for me. But end up receiving Guess Man instead because my parents are wise spenders. To our status, this perfume is already expensive back then. I envy my friends having this and also tommy hilfiger. Youre going to smell rich eventhough you are not. Haha. But after a year they finally bought this for me in a duty free. I was really happy to receive it. Now if am thinking to buy it again to revisit old memories.

An antiquated scent, but one that remains fresh and engaging. Something I find particularly interesting is how the scent changes so much as you become more active, typically when I wear this perfume it’s to go to work. Today I decided to wear it before going to the gym, and it went from a simple clean almost grass smelling fragrance to one that is very rich with notes of musk and sandalwood. A great fragrance for staying active on a warm sunny day.

I had stopped using this a few years back, as I found the blend at the time a little overly chemical smelling, but, I've just acquired a new bottle, which smells just as I remember it. Whether it's been successfully reformulated, or I just had a bad bottle, I would now recommend this hugely, the mint is just wonderful, so fresh, and manages somehow to catch a snapshot of the 90's. Have loved getting back into it, great fragrance.

This is a timeless wonder of a blue fragrance. The opening competes with any modern blue and lasts longer than most herb/citrus top notes. Everything simplifies in the drydown to a clean musk for me. This fragrance is an interesting combination of complexity and simplicity. The one knock is that the ingredients aren't to the quality level of Chanel, much less Tom Ford. This is super versatile along the lines of AdG or Dylan Blue.

This stuff has been one of my favorites since the 90s, and it never fails to get compliments. Of all Polo fragrances, this is the one that I will always have; although some of the other frangrances by that house are quality, I can take them or leave them. But this...this is one that my collection will NEVER be without. To the younger men out there - if you want to begin being a lady killer from an early age, invest in Polo Sport.

I know. “Fresh”, “blue” and “sport” fragrances have a terrible reputation. Don’t let the name or the colour of the bottle mislead you - this is NOT another fresh, blue or sport fragrance. Polo Sport is a unique pineapple spin on the aquatic genre. It is a worthy sibling to the legendary Polo, and belongs in any man’s summer rotation. Along with Tommy, this one of the classic scents from that awesome decade - the 1990s.

Always loved this scent on my boyfriends and bought for me too, many years ago. I ́ll tell you a DUPE for this one: If you are lucky to live in a country with ALDI supermarket chain, they have an EDT called "Luxury Style" for men. Its Polo Sport, only a bit less strong. It passed the test when I applied it and went to the gym for 2 hours. Scent was still there and stayed nicely. You're welcome.

Nearly two decades after discovering this little gem I finally decided to get a bottle. It's a little fresh. I think saying a little fresh would be like saying that Antarctica is a little nippy. To me, it smells like having come out of the shower fresh for the day and the best thing it's in a bottle. A morning/afternoon fragrance. Sillage - 7/10 Longevity - 6/10 Scent - 7/10

This was my brothers signature scent in 1999 and I remember sneaking into his room to get some sprays of this. It smelled devine and was so fresh and uplifting. Many many years later I have my own bottle finally lol and it smells exactly the same to me. Maybe a little weaker but it's still there. Classic scent and a must for any guy mid 30's and over

My favorite sport scent. I've been wearing it since the year it was launched. My current bottle is from a Jan. 2017 batch according to checkfresh.com. So the good news is that it's still obviously in production and the scent is very true to the original formulation. The standard by which all "sport" fragrances should be judged :)

Wow, i really really love this perfume, freshy yet not soapy to me, suitable as night perfume and for specials events mainly, in all seasons. I will admit and say that this is my number 1 perfume in the list, period. Also last for reasonable time like 4 to 5 hours. Buy it if you can, i think that you will love this.

This used to be my signature scent in the 90s, I know it's a men's scent but I kept getting compliments whenever I wore this and get asked by both men and women what I was wearing. It had strong projection on me and it last for hours on end. What a classic. 8.5/10

This was one of my very first fragrances in HS in the mid 90's. Still love it and own it today. Don't wear it as much but brings back so many memories like fragrances can do. Love to just smell the bottle and reminisce. Epitome of the "soapy clean" scent imo.

My father bought it for me when i was in elementary school and it was one of my all time favourite fragrance. scent: 8/10 sillage: 8/10 longevity: 9/10 is it discontinued? because it's really hard to find this fragrance in Jakarta, Indonesia these day

This smells like as if Irish Spring had an "ICE" flanker in the late 90s. And I swear it's got a mentholated opening too and I'm all for it. I think this is gonna get a lot of attention as it smells like you left the shower with lots of soap residue.

Has a very distinct but not niche smell. Since why so many reviewers talk about nostalgia, this scent is very distinguisable from other fragrances. Safe blind buy, and smells amazing. Have gotten lots of compliments. My favorite summer fragrance.

This is my all time favorite ! Smells extremely fresh with being all too lemony .. I’m in my 30’s still wearing it ! The down side is the longevity. But I will still wear it . Strongly recommend if you’re in to sea scent fresh colognes

very fresh and light fragrance that suits almost everyone .. I've had it since 1995 and still I use it when I'm on vacation, and in real heat days ..I love it...reminiscent of USA in some way .. I feel very comfortable with it .7/10

Ripping fresh, aldehydes and mint Original blue in a perfect package Polite and clean, yet confident and assertive Lavender remains and will offend none Calling it Aqua Velva Ice Blue parfum Would not be wrong

I wore this one today after a long time out. The memories came back on this one. I just bought two more bottles of this one. This is the kind of scent that is as @BrooklyBigAL says just me.

Bought this little baby 10 years ago, still have the same bottle and I still love it! Airy, minty goodness with seaweed and lavender. Lasts 8-10 hours with a few feet of projection.

This one's another nostalgic scent for me. My dad had this, but I never had the chance to smell it as a kid. It's great for summer, makes you feel fresh and its perfect for the gym.

They don't make'em like they used to. This is how a Sport fragrance should be: striking and powerful with ample depth. A gorgeous cologne that I am happy to get reacquainted with.

My 90's favourite. Girls still like it! So many memories and experience attached to this, still relevant today. Scent 9/10 Sillage 6.5/10 Longevity 6/10

Everyone wore Polo Sport back in the day, including me. Almost nobody wears Polo Sport now, except for me. I still like it, and I still wear it.

@farook I do precisely feel the same. I am 39 now. And Polo Sport by Ralph Lauren has been my Signature Scent since the late 1990s. Cheers!

I don't know if I love this because it evokes so many memories or because I think it smells great. I miss this era of home run smells. 8/10

Really grown on me. Perfect fresh old school scent for the gym. Smash loads on. Minty, aquatic with some citrus.

Dated but I love it. On my second bottle and my closet isn’t complete without it!
