The Brand
Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lauren is an American designer house whose fragrance line has been anchored by the Polo lineage since 1978, when Polo Green launched. The catalogue holds 81 Ralph Lauren perfumes at about $17 to $477. Three names stand out in the community data: Ralph Lauren Polo, Ralph Lauren Romance and Ralph Lauren Polo 67. Ralph's Club is the current-decade line, while Polo, Polo Blue and Polo Red remain the legacy anchors.
What the picks smell like
Ralph Lauren Polo (1978) reads as green herbs and leather with tobacco smoke and cedar, opening on juniper berry and basil and drying down to oakmoss, tobacco and cedar. Ralph Lauren Romance (Eau de Parfum, 1998) opens with rose and chamomile and ends on musk, exotic woods and oakmoss; overall it reads as fresh rose and lily powder, lightly sweet. For Ralph Lauren Polo 67 (Eau de Toilette, 2024), expect juicy pineapple citrus with a crisp pine-green herbal edge: pineapple and bergamot up top, vetiver, patchouli and goldenrod underneath.
