Polo Red by Ralph Lauren opens with sharp cranberry, grapefruit and Italian lemon, all zest and citrus snap. Saffron and sage take over through the heart, giving it a warm, slightly herbal turn. The base runs on amber, coffee and soft woodsy notes, keeping the whole thing grounded rather than sweet. Launched in 2013, it is worn mostly by men who want a citrus scent with some backbone. Voters wear it in autumn and spring, almost always by day, which makes it an obvious choice for work. Most wearers call its longevity moderate, and most call the sillage moderate too, so it stays close without shouting. A 3ml decant is enough to try it through a working week before you commit to more.
