What a punch in the face after the first spray. I didn't expect that: an absolute tobacco bomb that hits not only with a strong smokiness but also fresh and with a slight sweetness, brutally striking the nose. It could make your chest hair grow. You’re not used to something like this from today’s perfumes, which usually come across as clean and clear. After a few hours, the "Polo" smelled good with herbs and slightly of woodruff. After 12 hours, the scent was almost completely gone except for the patchouli; I find the base note here really great, it fits perfectly as a conclusion. For me, it’s clearly a favorite of my future collection.

At the start, you are greeted by a clean, fresh citrus scent that clearly brings bergamot. As it develops on my skin, a slightly bitter note has become noticeable, which became more pronounced until the end. Somehow, the scent reminds me of a good beginning. I have a 90s fragrance in mind that my father might have worn. Overall, the fragrance easily lasts through a workday, but after a few hours, it seemed quite sterile and dry to me. Unfortunately, there was no further development of the scent on my skin, apart from the bitter note. Therefore, I conclude that the fragrance does not suit me. A suitable perfume should not interfere with eating, which would be the case for me here. I cannot understand the good rating.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but after the first application, I initially thought I smelled a light animalic note when I got very close to the perfume. The opening was definitely woody and mixed with a strong note of Ambroxan. Fortunately, the scent becomes milder after a while, and the sandalwood becomes clearly noticeable. As it develops, a slight freshness emerges that brings a soapy note with it. The scent definitely lasts me through a workday, and since it is so subtle, I would recommend it for work as well. Personally, it's almost too subtle for me; it could use a bit more pizzazz as it develops. In my opinion, it is definitely suitable for the masses and everyday wear, as the oud is only slightly noticeable at the beginning. Unfortunately, a typical woody/chemical oud scent is missing.

My impression after a test day in the office: after applying, a cold, green herbal scent came through that was not sweet at all, but completely dry. A few hours later, I detected lemon balm and various herbal scents, which I really liked. Unfortunately, by the end, the scent on my skin came across like any generic aftershave. It vaguely reminded me of the perfume: Magic Man by Bruno banani (though that one was fruitier). I would have liked to smell the herbal scent until it completely faded, very unfortunate. The scent lasted on me for only about 5-6 hours. So unfortunately, we won't become friends.
Update: I sprayed the scent only on my clothes and lo and behold, now the good herbal scent lasts a whole office day. However, I don't like to wear it on my skin.

Light, sweet scent that smells a bit like citrus. A chemical - smoky note is clearly noticeable. The oud is probably suitable for beginners, as I couldn't detect any fecal or animalistic note. I've also occasionally smelled it distinctly from a colleague's perfume. The scent lasts a very long time and is perceptible from a greater distance; just a small drop on the skin is enough. The liquid is greenish-yellow and quite viscous. So: go for it, this is something for beginners in the world of oud.
