Today's SOTD is a fragrance I'm debating on making my signature scent. I recently ran out of Polo 67 EDP, and I decided to smell this scent out of curiosity at Ulta Beauty. What do you guys think of this one? I'm considering buying it. I'm not used to the scent but this is the second time I've given it a second shot on my skin.
There's a nice 'iced mango' opening but it then dries down to a woody layer that smells a little aquatic through my nose despite the lack of such notes. Year rounder, but notably suitable for spring/summer.
It's unique for not having any flankers but I got the impression from other people that the fragrance is signature scent worthy, and for people who were introduced to it years ago in 2005 and still wear it now, my impression is that it's also a timeless scent. My impression, is that it's a more suitable scent to wear as I get old (I'm in my early 30s), as Polo 67 EDT/EDP/EDP Extreme are a product of the trend of sweet fragrances that have taken over the market right now; is it weird that I feel too old wearing Polo 67? A question I've been thinking about lately.
Performance is around 5-6 hours, but some people's skins indicate that it lasted up to 6-8 hours.
The fragrance has been reformulated but it's reported there isn't much of a difference.
In any case, 4.2 oz / 125 ml bottles of Polo Black is on sale at JOMASHOP for $46.54, down from $116 retail. Since I worked A LOT of overtime for this paycheck I'll be buying myself a bottle.
