Which Should You Buy?
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.
This is the classic 1978 Polo formula, prized by vintage fans for its sharp green-herbal opening and leather-oakmoss base, and RL195 does a solid job of bringing that old-school chypre character back - the dupe's herbal top is a shade less complex than the original's dense, near-fifty-note pyramid.
