Ralph Lauren has released a set of Big Pony fragrances for women after the successful debut of a men's line last year. Like the mens, each bottle has a color, number and a "mood" like Sporty or Stylish. While we fit all of the moods, we might not all fit each fragrance so there are 4 to choose from. All sound rather fun and I'm enjoying the one I've tried -Free Spirited , #3 Yellow.
While there isn't a full note list for each scent, the two main notes listed do give a decent idea of the scents , at least as far as I can see with Yellow # 3. These are light , fresh and will work nicely with the warmer weather arriving. They can be freely spritzed without worrying about overkill and refreshed throughout the day.
#3 Free Spirited is very sunny as befits it color and is a nice light floral tinged with the pear note. It's not a juicy floral but more solar and without the heavy dewy notes that we often see in this type of scent that are not my favorite.
I look forward to also trying #1 since I adore grapefruit. The blue lotus worries me a bit but we'll see.
Also, RL has done a personality quiz as well as a chance to sneak peek the brand new , not yet released, song and video by One Republic, for the Big Pony campaign . If you take the quiz and post to a social media site, you are entered to win a $4,000 Ralph Lauren shopping spree. The video, called Life in Color, features brightly clothed pretty things, polo ponies and vintage cars. Yes, it's the Hamptons. Cast of Revenge not included.
