Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Polo Green Eau de Toilette

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.

Statement

Our Verdict - Pour Lui Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper time capsule, polarizing opinion but cherished by old-school enthusiasts. Forget the modern gunk; if you want a classic aromatic powerhouse with barber shop vibes, get your hands on a vintage bottle.

Season and Occasion Fit

Polo Green Eau de Toilette

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.

Pour Lui Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Formal

Also Works:

Office Date

Older formulations of Pour Lui have considerable projection and longevity, making it less suitable for a casual office environment. However, its sophisticated and clean-yet-complex profile lends itself well to formal events and date nights, where its powerful presence can be appreciated. Newer formulations are much weaker, making them more versatile for office or casual wear but sacrificing the 'powerhouse' aspect.
