10 Best Polo Ralph Lauren Colognes of 2026

Polo Blue Eau de Toilette takes the top spot because it is the most versatile scent in the current Polo line. The Ulta Beauty listing describes a casual and clean aquatic composition that opens with tangerine, melon, cucumber and pepper, moves to a warm geranium heart and dries down to basil, suede, sage, patchouli and oak. Fresh aquatic scents like this suit offices, warm weather and daytime wear, which is why we score it highest for experience. It costs $116 for 4.2 oz, the same as Polo Red and Polo 67 in eau de toilette strength, and it comes in 2.5, 4.2 and 6.7 oz bottles, although the 6.7 oz size showed as not available when we checked. The tradeoff is strength: men who want a deeper, longer-lasting blue should look at Polo Blue Parfum or the Eau de Parfum. We compared published notes, sizes and prices and did not wear-test any fragrance.

Polo 67 Eau de Toilette is the newest scent in the Polo line, and the Ulta Beauty listing describes it as a bold, bright, long-lasting fragrance. Calabrian bergamot and a pineapple accord open it, geranium and clary sage sit in the heart, and Haitian vetiver forms the base. The listing names five sustainably sourced ingredients: Calabrian bergamot, lavandin heart, geranium, clary sage essence heart and Haitian vetiver. Its strongest practical point is choice of size: it comes in 0.3, 1.36, 2.5 and 4.2 oz bottles, so you can try a 0.3 oz spray before paying $116 for 4.2 oz. It ranks just behind Polo Red because the pineapple accord gives it a fruitier profile that may not suit buyers who want a classic Polo scent, and because there is no 6.7 oz bottle. The bottle uses a new Polo 67 logo that the listing says pays homage to the history of Polo. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Red Eau de Toilette is the Polo Red most men should start with. The Ulta Beauty listing describes a woody, oriental cologne inspired by Ralph Lauren's car collection: lemon, bergamot and juniper on top, red saffron, clary sage and lavender in the heart, and cedarwood, vetiver and vanilla underneath. That makes it warmer and spicier than Polo Blue while staying fresh enough for daytime. It costs $116 for 4.2 oz and comes in 2.5, 4.2 and 6.7 oz bottles, so it is $32 cheaper than Polo Red Parfum and $19 cheaper than Polo Red Eau de Parfum Extreme at the same 4.2 oz size. The listing calls it bold and masculine, so it projects more than the blue scents. Buyers who want more intensity for evenings can move up to the Parfum, which Ulta describes as long-lasting, or the Extreme with ginger, vanilla and leather. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo 67 Eau de Parfum takes the pineapple idea from the Polo 67 Eau de Toilette and makes it warmer. The Ulta Beauty listing describes pineapple intertwined with cedarwood and a base of benzoin resin that lingers on the skin, in the Woody Fruity family. It costs $130 for 4.2 oz, $14 more than the eau de toilette and $18 less than the two parfums, and it also comes in 0.3 and 2.5 oz bottles, so you can test it cheaply. The listing names only three key notes, which gives buyers less to compare than with the other entries, and the profile is sweeter than the classic Polo Blue or Polo Red. It comes in a midnight blue bottle with a silver Polo 67 logo and a chrome cap. For men who already like Polo 67 and want it for cooler evenings, this is the step up before the Extreme. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Blue Parfum turns the fresh Polo Blue idea into a woodier, more intense scent. The Ulta Beauty listing says it adds a new intensity of rich sensuality to the collection, built on an upcycled oakwood accord derived from the creation of French cognac barrels, with mandarin and clary sage on top and patchouli and vetiver giving an earthy, smoky finish. The full note list also includes cardamom, pink pepper, lavandin, a jasmine accord and olibanum. Like Polo Red Parfum, it comes in a refillable bottle, here in navy with gunmetal accents, and it costs $148 for 4.2 oz with a 2.5 oz size also listed. It ranks just behind Polo Red Parfum because the two are equal on concentration and price, and the Red's Replenish & Save discount was visible at our check. Men who love the cucumber and melon of the original should note that this version leans on wood and spice instead. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Red Parfum is the deepest version of Polo Red in this list and the one to pick if you like the original but want more staying power. The Ulta Beauty listing calls it a long-lasting men's cologne with absinthe and orris, sustainable bergamot and lavender in the heart, and a cedarwood base; the detailed note list adds blood orange oil, pink peppercorn, musk and opoponax. It sits in the Woody & Ambery family, so it is warmer and less citrusy than the Fresh Oriental eau de toilette. The bottle is refillable, a feature only the two parfums on this list mention. The price is $148 for 4.2 oz, and Ulta's Replenish & Save showed $140.60 for subscription orders at our check. It is sold in 2.5 and 4.2 oz bottles. Buyers who want Polo Red for hot days or the office should stay with the eau de toilette. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo 67 Eau de Parfum Extreme is the strongest of the three Polo 67 scents. The Ulta Beauty listing describes a vibrant burst of pineapple, the warmth of cedarwood and an intense leather accord, and its note list runs from bergamot essence and lemon oil on top through a pineapple accord, clary sage, geranium and a solar accord to a base of leather, Virginia cedarwood and vetiver. It costs $135 for 4.2 oz, the same as Polo Red Eau de Parfum Extreme, and a 0.33 oz size is also listed. Compared with Polo 67 Eau de Parfum, it swaps benzoin sweetness for leather, which suits evenings more than the office. It ranks ninth because it overlaps with two other Polo 67 versions and the leather limits where you can wear it. The bottle has a chrome finish and a midnight blue logo. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Blue Eau de Parfum sits between the original eau de toilette and the parfum. The Ulta Beauty listing describes a bold men's fragrance with a fresh contrast of bergamot and rich vetiver, with a blue orris accord in the heart. The longer description adds aquatic accords with spicy basil, verbena and clary sage, softened by washed suede, moss and sheer musk. It stays in the Fresh Aquatic family, so it keeps more of the original's character than Polo Blue Parfum, which moves into Fresh Woods. It costs $130 for 4.2 oz, and Ulta's Replenish & Save showed $123.50 for subscription orders at our check. It ranks lower than the parfum because it is sold only in a 4.2 oz size, with no smaller bottle to try first, and because the parfum adds a refillable bottle for $18 more. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Red Eau de Parfum Extreme is the answer for Polo Red fans who want the most power. The Ulta Beauty listing calls it the most extreme Polo Red yet: red ginger opens it, vanilla bourbon sits in the heart, and a leather accord leaves what the listing calls a rich trail. That puts it in the Ambery Woody Leathery family, a long way from the fresh grapefruit and lemon of the original eau de toilette. It costs $135 for 4.2 oz, which is $13 less than Polo Red Parfum, and it also comes in 0.34 and 1.3 oz bottles, the best small-size range among the Polo Reds. It ranks below the Parfum on experience because vanilla and leather narrow it to evenings and cold weather, and the listing names only three key notes. It comes in a glossy burgundy bottle with a red metallic cap. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.

Polo Black Eau de Toilette is the outlier in the Polo line: darker and fruitier than the blue and red scents. The Ulta Beauty listing describes a bold fusion of iced mango, silver armoise and patchouli noir, with Spanish sage, a green effervescent accord, hedione, sandalwood, timberol and tonka bean in the full composition. The listing calls it modern, daring and sophisticated and aims it at the urban gentleman, which points to evenings rather than daytime. It costs $116 for 4.2 oz, tied for the lowest price on this list, but it is the only entry sold in a single size with no smaller bottle and no stronger concentration on Ulta's Ralph Lauren page. Its black bottle with strong shoulders and a silver pony is based on Polo's signature flask. It ranks last because its narrower, evening-only profile and single size make it a harder blind buy than the other picks. We compared published notes, sizes and prices only.
