The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Polo Earth, launched by Ralph Lauren in 2022 and crafted by perfumer Elise Bénat, is a composition that balances fresh citrus and aromatic accords with woody warmth. The fragrance opens with bright neroli, citron, and bergamot, which mingle seamlessly with peppermint and green mandarin to create an invigorating freshness. This bright top layer gives way to a heart of orange blossom, geranium, ylang-ylang, sage, and lavender, providing a delicate floral touch with a hint of spice. The base notes of haitian vetiver, cedar, and musk ground the scent in earthy warmth, making it both versatile and enduring.

How to wear it

Apply Polo Earth with two sprays — it develops quickly but maintains its balance between freshness and warmth. The citrus-aromatic top notes are most prominent in the first hour, so wait a bit before reapplying if you prefer the more grounded base notes.
