What Reddit owners say
4/5 UniqueWinter“that's a solid polo lineup. the color coordination on the shelf is actually pretty satisfying to look at, even if that wasn't intentional. i've got a few of these myself and the thing that gets me is how different they all smell despite being under the same umbrella, like polo blue and polo black are basically different universes. the greens and navy stuff really does hit different in fall and winter though. how long did it take you to collect all of these, or did you just go all in at once.”
4/5 Longevity“I've smelled it but it's pretty close to the EDP. It's a pineapple bomb. I have Polo Deep Blue Parfum and it's got mango and good performance. But of course it smells like polo blue and stronger. Highly recommend it though.”
2/5“One of my very first starter fragrances with polo blue. I sold it off before I finished it after realizing it was spicy mango instead of something really dark and woody.”
4/5 Fresh & cleanUnique“I can't help you my Brother in Fragrance. My tastes are in different places entirely. I like Woody, Leathery, Musky type stuff myself. I have heard good things about Lattafa Zanzibar, sort of a more Nautical, Aquatic type scent with Citrus notes. I need to explore things in the fresh minty clean spectrum more, but I can say I like Polo Blue when looking to deviate from my usual style.”
5/5“The best case of adult money for me would be purchasing (and still unopened) Polo Blue parfum 😭. All cause I got an actual long sleeve RL polo for myself before that so I thought why not.”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I can honestly say that 7 Cobalt smells nothing like Profumo I own both. 7 Cobalt smells like a hybrid of Polo Blue Parfum and Dolce and Gabbana K edt.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Polo Blue Parfum, Acqua Di Gio Profundo EDP, YSL Y Iced Cologne, Chanel Superleggera, Bleu De Chanel,Polo Black EDT, and Missoni Wave. That's what I have anyway”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I got Polo Blue as a gift and I don't use it much. I mostly keep it in the car for days that I forget to put cologne on or forget to pack some extras when I go stay with my girlfriend for a few days. Polo blue lasts me around 5-6 if I had to guess”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Probably Bleu De Chanel EDP or Polo Blue Parfum. Because if say im helping my mom with something wearing either of those 2 from my collection I don't get the “man whore” comment jokes.”
