Polo Blue

It would seem that it was this very sky that inspired the creation of the Polo Blue fragrance. This juice seems to possess the energy of a fresh, invigorating breeze, urging men to push their limits and turn toward wide open spaces. Polo Blue is a deceptively casual fragrance, perfectly in harmony with the other creations from the house of Ralph Lauren.

Ralph Lauren chooses the universality of the color blue

If Ralph Lauren chose to name his fragrance Polo Blue and set it in a bottle entirely covered in blue, it is simply because this is the most beloved shade in the world. It is universal and evokes for everyone the splendor of the sea's expanse contrasted with the blue of the horizon. As Ralph Lauren explains, just like style, a color has the power to change your mood and attitude. The color blue has always had a calming effect on me, he says. It evokes for me the ocean, a cloudless blue sky, or the comfort of my favorite jeans. This is precisely what one finds in the Polo Blue fragrance. It is a soothing fragrance, calling out for freedom. It invites one to turn toward an immensely blue horizon. Polo Blue sets a course for adventure and invites renewal. It is intended for a man attached to simple values. Polo Blue is a refined fragrance that never veers into excessive luxury. It offers a new vision of elegance, more relaxed than before.

Polo Blue, the freshness of an aquatic fougère

Polo Blue was created by a duo of perfumers, Carlos Benaïm and Christophe Laudamiel. Both chose to work around one of the most iconic accords in men's perfumery: the fougère. This highly renowned scent in men's perfumery is characterized by a combination of several aromatic facets. Here, basil is paired with sage and geranium. This plant enhances the elegance of the fragrance while lending it a slightly spicy touch. For added freshness, the heart is enriched with mandarin, Cavaillon melon, watermelon, and cucumber. For greater masculinity, the sillage turns toward woodier notes. Oakmoss is paired with patchouli. White suede reinforces the animalic quality of the composition and makes the fragrance more sensual. Finally, as if leaving behind a sense of cleanliness, Polo Blue closes with a scent of white musks. All of this is presented in the iconic Ralph Lauren bottle, created in 1978, entirely tinted blue for the occasion. The whole resembles crystal-clear water stamped with the brand's famous silver polo player.
