How is it calculated?

These markers are an editorial estimate calculated automatically from the perfume's real accords and their intensity, following the classic reading of scent families (hesperidics and aromatics shine in summer and at the office, ambers and gourmands in winter and in the evening…). They do not come from user votes and do not replace a test on skin.

Why choose one… or the other?

Why choose Russian Leather

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • juniper, vetiver, birch: all materials absent from Polo Blue.
  • It is 13 years younger (2015 against 2002).
  • The more expensive of the two (from €255.00).

Why choose Polo Blue

  • It costs less: from €37.14, while the other starts at €255.00.
  • Its pyramid opens on melon, cucumber, geranium, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • 24 years of existence (2002): it has proved itself for longer.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: cucumber, melon).
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Polo Blue — €217.86 difference in its favour

  • Most concentrated

    Russian Leather — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most original

    Polo Blue — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (cucumber, melon)
