Polo Blue Gold Blend by Ralph Lauren presents a crisp, spicy-chic interpretation of the classic Polo Blue DNA, with an emphasis on cardamom, ginger, and citrus in the opening that quickly transitions into a cool aroma of green apple, sage, and incense. The longer-lasting performance and notable ambery warmth in the drydown give it a richer, more sophisticated character compared to the original, making it ideal for evening wear or colder seasons. The fragrance exhibits moderate projection and wears pleasantly close to the skin, with a dry, smoky backbone that some find metallic or ambiguous. It bears strong similarities to both Versace Dylan Blue and Armani Encens Satin, particularly in its blend of spicy citrus, fresh green notes, and oriental warmth, giving it a modish, contemporary profile. It’s well-suited for daytime and fall/winter wear, and especially recommended for those seeking a more refined, slightly stronger version of the original Polo Blue that lingers beyond just the first few hours.
