Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Polo Green EDT

Polo Green is a legendary powerhouse - a forest in a bottle, projecting confidence and old-school masculinity with its dense blend of pine, leather, tobacco and moss.

Our Verdict - Icon EDP

Dunhill Icon is divisive: a bold, peppery neroli bomb some hail as a unique, sophisticated masterpiece with a 'grape soda' twist, others dismiss as cheap, synthetic, or just 'okay'. A true talker, but with variable performance.

Season and Occasion Fit

Polo Green

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

The strong green, woody and mossy profile is ideal for brisk spring and earthy autumn days, while its leathery-tobacco richness holds up well in winter. It can overwhelm in hot summer weather.

Occasions

Best For:

Formal

Also Works:

Date Casual

Its bold, classic masculinity and assertive projection suit formal occasions and confident casual wear, but the intensity can be too much for modern offices or sporty settings.

Icon

Seasons

Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office Date

Its fresh, clean, and aromatic profile makes it suitable for office and casual wear, often described as 'professional' and 'classy'. The variable performance means it can work, but for formal events, its longevity might be a gamble.
