What does Polo Double Black (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the wearer. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings, the office and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine.

It opens with mango and pepper, the fruit sweetness sharpened by the pepper. In the heart, coffee and nutmeg add a gourmand, spicy warmth. The base of juniper berry, woods and cardamom settles into a woody footing. Alviero Martini GeoBlack Man and Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity (Gold) have a close profile.
