What do reviewers say about DKNY Men 2009 and Polo Explorer?
Not for the collector. Not for the occasion-seeker. For the person who wants something clean, lasting, and assured. The 2009 release is apparently discontinued now.DKNY Men 2009
Polo Explorer is a fragrance that earns attention through quality rather than volume. The leather at its heart doesn't compete with the citrus opening but rather follows it.Polo Explorer
