MESSAGE BY KIERON
I notice that there is a love-hate relationship with polo and I think I can understand why. The scent is effortlessly conspicuous, but so are many disagreeable fragrances, which I have the good taste not to cite. I discovered polo emanating from a superior at my first job and I couldn’t help but feel subservient by the authority, which its presence commanded. I think that it is synonymous with the more mature gentleman because of the elegant musky overtones, which some may consider overwhelming and lack delicacy. Some men do overenthusiastically drench themselves in it but I appreciate its potency and use it sparingly, so as not to make ‘young and cute’ girls ‘sick’. I must confess that discernable ‘women’ that usually come close enough to detect it do find it enticing. I find that most of the fashionable fragrances are very analogous, and it’s very difficult to differentiate between them. That is the catch-22 situation, the others smell so similar so you neither love it nor hate it, but polo is very distinctive so you either love it or hate it. But I think it is better for some people to love something that for everybody just to like it.
