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.
Mallet Vert chases Ralph Lauren's old-school Polo Green - that grassy pine, oakmoss-and-leather chypre - and gets damn close per the community. It captures the mossy, masculine forest character, though the pine sharpens and the refined oakmoss-leather drydown thins out compared with the 1978 original.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
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
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.
Seasons
The green, mossy, woody character suits cooler months and transitional spring; high summer flattens its herbal-leather depth.
Occasions
A classic masculine chypre that fits office, formal and evening wear; too assertive and dated-smelling for sport.
