Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Polo Sport
Polo Sport is an undeniable '90s icon, but wearers are split on whether its modern iteration captures the original magic. Some hail it as a timeless fresh classic, while others decry its reformulation as a shadow of its former self - minty toothpaste rather than oceanic bliss.

Our Verdict - Mallet Exhibition For Men
Perfume Parlour's nod to Ralph Lauren's Polo Sport. Mallet Exhibition captures the cool minty-citrus aquatic rush, but the woody-aromatic base reads thinner and synthetic, with the same short legs the original is known for.
