Police 1998 Edt

U £

Original

Police Original is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1998. Original opens with Lavender, Mint, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Violet and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Musk, and Cedar. Police's Original carries a Statement verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag. Some call it a hidden gem for the price, others say it's just cheap and synthetic. Expect poor performance, but if you can get past that, it might just surprise you with its fresh, spicy charm.

Its weak projection and longevity make it ideal for close-quarters like the office or casual settings, as it won't offend. The fresh, aromatic profile is versatile but lacks the boldness for formal events or the lasting power for a date.

About

Original kicks off with a fresh, aromatic hit of lavender, mint, and bergamot, giving a clean, almost bracing opening. It then softens into a powdery heart of violet and geranium, adding a touch of classic floral masculinity. The dry down is a woody hug of sandalwood, musk, and cedar, settling into a comfortable, slightly spicy base that hints at an old-school vibe.
