Ralph Lauren Polo Red Rush is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018. Polo Red Rush opens with Lemon, Grapefruit, Mandarin, and Pineapple, settles into a heart of Red Apple, Orange Blossom, Lavender, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Coffee. Ralph Lauren's Polo Red Rush carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Polo Red Rush is a flanker that desperately tries to be relevant but falls flat. It smells decent enough and perfectly inoffensive, but you'll probably forget it five minutes after spraying. Save your cash and find something with a bit more personality.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, fruity, and inoffensive nature, combined with generally low projection and moderate longevity, makes it suitable for office wear where it won't overpower. It's a solid choice for casual daytime activities and a decent gym scent, as its lighter profile won't be cloying. However, for dates or formal events, its lack of distinction means it won't leave a memorable impression.

About

Opens with a bright, fruity explosion of pineapple, grapefruit, lemon, and mandarin - a genuinely uplifting start. Soon, the zest settles into a muddled heart where lavender, red apple, and a faint hint of coffee try to make their presence known. The drydown is a soft, musky cedar, rather generic and fleeting, leaving behind a trace of pleasant but ultimately forgettable freshness.
