Purple Label

by dsm-firmenich

Ralph Lauren Purple Label is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003, created by dsm-firmenich. Purple Label opens with Blackberry, Coriander, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Sage and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Oakmoss, Musk, and Mahogany. Ralph Lauren's Purple Label carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This one's a divisive one, always compared to Bleecker Street and Aventus, but can't quite stand on its own for many. Some reckon it's a classy, unique gem, while others are left underwhelmed by its fleeting performance and generic vibe. Try before you buy, mate.

Best Seasons

Best For:

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its blend of classic woody and aromatic accords, coupled with a generally perceived subdued performance, makes it perfect for formal events and dates where subtlety is key. It's too refined and not fresh enough for casual or sport, and its elegance might be lost in too relaxed an office setting unless oversprayed.

About

Purple Label opens with a juicy, dark blackberry and sharp mandarin, spiced up with coriander. The heart introduces an aromatic, earthy blend of sage and thyme. It dries down to a sophisticated woody base of mahogany and oakmoss, with a soft musky underscore. It's a blend of fresh fruit, aromatic herbs, and classic woods that aims for refined masculinity.
