Which Should You Buy?
Polo Red is a bold, crowd-pleasing fusion of juicy cranberry, zesty citrus, and warm coffee-amber. Playful yet assertive, it’s an energetic scent that turns heads without overwhelming the room.
No. 252 nails Polo Red's cranberry-and-coffee opening rush but the saffron-sage heart thins out fast, so the fiery start is here while the original's polished woody-amber depth and staying power aren't.
