What do reviewers say about Des Cendres and Polo Cologne Intense Eau de Parfum?
Bold, unapologetic, and built for someone who knows exactly what they want. No safe moves here, just smoke, leather, and the kind of presence that turns heads without trying.Des Cendres
This is the Ralph Lauren Polo the original always aspired to be. Its Ambroxan base provides a clean, mineral warmth that the 1978 version could only suggest.Polo Cologne Intense Eau de Parfum
