    What do reviewers say about Polo Oud and Arabian Desert?

    Western oud done right. Most designer ouds feel synthetic or muted, but Polo Oud threads the needle, rich enough to satisfy, smooth enough to wear daily. The rose-cinnamon heart is the real hook.Polo Oud
    It doesn't shout. The opening's bright enough to get attention, but the oud underneath has other ideas, this is the fragrance for someone who doesn't need to walk in first.Arabian Desert
