Ralph Lauren / Polo Cologne Intense Eau de Parfum — Happy International Green Irish Tweed Day Eve ! I hope everyone has been good and St. Patrick leaves a tall glass of Guinness on your kitchen table in the morning ! I know it’s not easy being green ( especially if your Protestant like me 😊 ) but today I went with Polo Intense, a nice update of the O/G that still harkens back to the 80’s without feeling dated …

Day 5 today and of my ATH fun on this blizzard Monday that I spent the morning shoveling out of. Yet another amazing frag from Aaron. He really has challenged by thoughts on frag scent profiles. Normally not a sweet or chocolate frag guy but damn if he isn’t a mad scientist. Boozy sweet gourmand that goes and goes. Longevity is excellent. Projection is also excellent without being overbearing. Again very office safe. The ladies really like this one as well if going trolling. lol Sillage trail lingers well after you pass. depending on sprays. Really only need 2-3 sprays. If you go overboard it could be cloying in confined spaces. I see this as more of a 3 1/2 season wearable frag. In high heat over 80 deg this could be brutal depending on if you’re indoors or out. Solid 9.5/10 for me. Yea I know. They all seem to be highly rated over 9/10 for me. Sounds unbelievable unless you have tried the houses quality. No they aren’t cheap but as usual in frags, quality of ingredients matters. Also Aaron uses real Oud in his frags. If memory serves it’s one of his 5% Thai Oud frags. That alone means that yes it’s discontinued due to every new batch of Oud he uses will have a different scent profile to it. This was a 2021 release btw. What say you brothers? Tried this one?
