Polo Cologne Intense Cologne

Details and Care

Polo Cologne Intense is a cologne that was released by Ralph Lauren in 2021. It is an aromatic fougere fragrance intended to be worn by men. “Fougere” is the French word for fern, and it describes one of the main olfactive families for scents. Accordingly, Polo Cologne Intense offers a bold scent that is characterized by green, mossy and herbaceous notes. It opens with a vivacious layer of basil, mint and grapefruit. This herbal and fruity top layer is supported by a heart layer of clary sage, violet and thyme. Polo Cologne Intense dries down to an alluring base of ambroxan, patchouli and vetiver, giving this masculine scent a warm richness.
