Ralph Lauren Ralph's Club 50ml EDP Spray

Product Information

Ralph's Club is one of the many fragrances that are proof that you can never satisfy the fragrance community and there will always be something to hate on. Ralph Lauren use high quality ingredients and oil-based notes to increase the intensity of their scent.

I hear/read a lot of comments saying it's boring and not that great, but I really disagree with that. I think it's unique and very well balanced. It may be the kind of fragrance that eventually might SEEM boring if everyone started wearing it, like with Y by YSL, which is another one that I think smells great but is considered boring because it's worn by so many people (and to disagree yet another time, this smells nothing like Y, which is another reason to use that as an example). In other words it could be that type of "likable" frag that is hard to offend, a "people pleaser" if you will.. But that doesn't automatically make it boring in my opinion. Seemed to project well for the first three hours. I noticed it very well for five or six hours. I can still smell it on my skin and also on my shirt eight hours after application. I was in close proximity to a handful of people I know and a handful of people I didn't. No one mentioned the fragrance.

This is a scent that's VERY NICE but also feels VERY familiar. It does not blow my mind in any way, but it smells really, really nice. Is it super unique or challenging like many in the community want? No. Still, I’m a little surprised by the low rating and all the hate. Solid release that you and the people around you will enjoy. It's not super unique, but it's complex, refined, and smells *really* good--soft but masculine and vaguely mysterious. Whenever I smell it I think of Batman for some reason. It's a *great* scent. Just did a review of this on my Youtube "Rotten Rebel" and like always wanted to share my thoughts with the lovely community here! Not to say RCP turns out to be anything unique in the overcrowded world of blue fragrances designed for maximum appeal, as BdC, Sauvage, Y EDP/Parfum and a thousand Invictus Aqua clones have already stripped that goldmine for all it’s worth. Ralph Lauren is late to the game here, without a doubt.

Crafted with an exceptionally high level of naturality, the ingredients are distilled to their highest quality to achieve a clean and long-lasting aroma, making it the most natural fragrance in the Ralph Lauren portfolio." Aromatic - Fresh - A little spicy. Ralph Lauren’s take on a mass appealing “blue” style fragrance… Better late than never, right? It’s refreshing to finally get a new, relevant release from the house instead of something else to just get buried under all the Polo flankers.The opening is fresh and slightly fruity with a very pleasant smell. Minutes later it becomes more aromatic. Floral accords of lavender, geranium, and other flowers begin to direct the scent of the fragrance. I also detect a slightly spicy, semi-roasted, sweet aroma, like tonka bean or cinnamon, but no spice is listed in the notes. If you love rich woody scents and spice, Ralph’s Club Parfum is a dazzling way to transition from day to night. Ralph’s Club exudes luxury from the bottle to the scent, making it a fantastic gift thanks to its universal woody-fougere appeal. Ultimately, Ralph’s Club may be just a drop of water in an ocean of deep blue smell-alikes, but I think it deserves to stand shoulder to shoulder with the giants of the genre, when all is said and done.

The base is bold and powerful; it takes on an earthy tone using vetiver, patchouli and cashmeran. Vetiver and patchouli can both be dominant notes, but they’re layered expertly in Ralph’s Club Parfum so they never overwhelm you. Now as time as passed I realise that this is one of those easy reach, don't need to think about it kind of fragrances; you can use this is pretty much any situation, and you will get complimented, and you will smell nice. I typically wear this stuff when I'm going to the shops, nothing too serious. Good all rounder and a people pleaser. Performance and sillage are okay, not amazing. Will it get you noticed? Probably not, although projection and longevity are on par with other parfum strength designers. The ingredients are distilled to their highest quality to achieve a clean and long-lasting aroma, making it the most natural aftershave for men in the Ralph Lauren portfolio.

Pharmacy product

The sleek flask is a product of years of craftsmanship, with sharp masculine angles that are cool to the touch. The gunmetal design features an unforgettable hinge cap detailed with the Ralphs Club monogram. There is a traditionally masculine tone to Ralph’s Club Parfum as earthy notes are typically associated with men’s fragrances. This to me feels like they took the original and added more layers to it. The original was very much aromatic and woody and so is Parfum, but the aromatic side in parfum is more nuanced and its woodiness feels a bit different. There's also a soft dose of something sweet which really makes it a lot more likable and appealing. Unfortunately the performance is terrible for me. I actually prefer more intimate scents but on my skin this projects a few feet for literally 30 minutes and then becomes a skin scent. After a few hours it disappears almost entirely, which is unacceptable for a parfum where you're supposed to gain longevity in exchange for the lower sillage. The 2021 Ralph’s Club Eau de Parfum and the new-for-2022 Parfum both share a woody-fougere heart. However, this Parfum has a warm intensity and a spiced-woody dry down (thanks to the patchouli and cardamom) which the Eau de Parfum doesn’t have.
