Polo Red, from Ralph Lauren was released in 2013. The perfumer behind this creation is Olivier Gillotin. It has the top notes of Cranberry, Grapefruit, and Lemon, middle notes of Saffron and Sage, and base notes of Amber, Coffee, and Woody Notes.
This was gifted to me. It's not a fragrance that I completely dislike, but it's not something I would like to have again either; in real life, I love both cranberries and coffee, but together, in the scent realm, ah... it's not a good combination for me. There's amber, wood and citrus; the sage is subtle, and I detect no saffron. I rather spray myself a little, because I have the personal impression that it can be kind of offensive if heavily sprayed... it's just too sweet, I guess, but then again, that's for me.
I get that cranberries and coffee are good scents, but I think they should be not together. It's a very fall-ish fragrance, and while you can use it for day-time because of the cranberries and the citrus, the sweet coffee note (not like espresso or black coffee, but more like sugary big-hype-and-price-but-low-quality-brand beverage) makes it fit for evening-use, specially if you are in a casual setting... and well, only in you like it, because, I can't imagine other scenarios (like a romantic date or an action-packed night) with it; teens might like this, I don't know. I strongly recommend to test it first.
