Which Should You Buy?
Point Du Jour is a divisive, meditative hit for lovers of incense and aromatic herbs. It's a bone-dry, almost austere take on a 'fresh' scent; skip it if you want something to please the masses, but if you're after quiet introspection and a unique herbal fix, this is it.
Polo Cologne Intense aims for a modern take on a classic, but this flanker gets a mixed bag of reactions. Some laud its fresh, green revitalisation, while others dismiss it as a diluted, generic scent that barely lives up to the 'intense' in its name. Expect a clean but fleeting experience.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its moderate projection and calming, therapeutic nature, Point Du Jour is well-suited for casual wear, office environments where subtlety is appreciated, and even during sport for an invigorating, fresh feeling. It's too abstract and understated for formal events and not overtly romantic for dates.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
This fragrance is well-suited for casual wear, office environments, and even light sporting activities due to its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile. Its moderate projection and sometimes weak longevity mean it's less ideal for formal events or dates where a more impactful scent is often desired.
