Polo Double Black
masculine
Created by Ellen Molner
Polo Double Black by Ralph Lauren is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men. Polo Double Black was launched in 2006. The nose behind this fragrance is Ellen Molner. Top notes are Mango and Pepper; middle notes are Roasted Coffee Beans and Indonesian Nutmeg; base notes are Woodsy Notes, Cardamom and Juniper Berries. After Polo Black (2005), Ralph Lauren created a fragrance that is even blacker - Polo Double Black. Regardless of the color, this fragrance is not heavy; it is a refreshing oriental with a recognizable opening of frozen mango. The aromatic, woody freshness of its forbear is replaced by intensive spicy notes of Indonesian nutmeg, pepper, and roasted coffee. The base is composed of noble wood and allied with cardamom and fir. It was created by Ellen Molner in 2006.
