Bought a bottle of Polo Double Black from a reputable seller on eBay. Price was great (duh!) but the scent isn't quite right (double duh?).
I smelled this in the store and loved it. Didn't seem quite right when it arrived (not nec. horrible, just not nearly as pleasant as the store cologne). So I sprayed some on my arm the other day and went to a retail shop, sprayed some from a tester on the other arm. Even with a bit of time dating, the two scents were markedly different (the store version had a really pleasant spicey/sweetness the other lacked).
I almost wonder if the product in the bottle is Polo Black in a mis marked bottle? Sort of smells like it (will try the above test that way soon).
Any guess what I've got here? Are faked colognes quite prevalent? This was in a proper sealed box, and the bottle though not identical to what I saw most recently, seems correct (have they changed this bottle subtly recently?).
I think I need to go back and pick up the bottle from the store (they had a special w/AS and Cologne for the same price, hope that's still available!).
