Got this as a gift from my gf and as I was smelling it for the first time I was actually really surprised how damn good it smelled! It has a very interesting green super fresh kind of smell to it very different from anything I have in my collection definitely a compliment getter. Seems to last 6-8 hours on me with better then average projection for the first 2 hours.I own a couple polo fragrances and I think this is my favorite and its also slightly stronger then the other polo fragrances. 8/10 respectively

Big Pony 3 is certainly mint and ginger. But that really is all there is to it. Pretty low sillage with low strength. I really struggle to catch this scent shortly after spraying. The drydown is ginger candy before quickly fading out.
If it was stronger, with a more impressionable ginger note, this might be interesting. However, as this formulation stands, it isn’t complex nor strong enough to garner much interest in anything outside of casual wear.
This could be unisex or masculine depending on how strongly the ginger takes to your skin. I would not get it for myself though.
Scent: 6/10
Sillage: 4/10
Longevity: 4/10

I really wish that the cologne stuck with that linear top note of mint. The ginger can be offensive, depending on the weather. If this fragrance dialed back the ginger and boosted the mint, I would wear it more often. Reminds me of October 2014, when I stayed in Canada. Brings back memories of Toronto.

This is the most unique of the 4 big pony scents for men and it is my least favourite, unfortunately. I like to think I can appreciate earthy, spicy aromatics but as a woman, I feel like they need a touch of soft sweetness in the base notes for me to be attracted to a scent. I prefer Polo Blue as a fresh summer scent on men and am still looking for the perfect sweet woodsy fragrance for my partner.
SashaChe44 – :
So this is a Very Clean smell
The Ginger compliments the Spearmint like a undertone scent. last a long time,
Ok so if your wanting to smell this sampler

Don’t let the name fool ya
Authedy – :
This definitly a sleeper fragrance !
Its 1 of those fragrances that most fragrance snobs will pass up on because its not extremely unique or diverse but sometimes simplicity is honestly better.
This is 1 of those frags that wont make you stand out in anyway but you will deffinitly get complimented on smelling nice which makes it perfect for daily,casual use.
The smell itself is its a pleasant,green,minty, soapy scent blended with some ginger to keep it from being to boring.It kind of reminds me of a sweeter version of irish spring soap/
Performance on this pretty good on my skin actually. I get anywhere from 6-10 hrs longevity and it projects just above average the whole time
Overalli id rate this a 7.25 out of 10 !
Александр-88 – :
Well I have to say that I agree with my friend Mike that its the best smell in the hole collection but it comes with the poor longevity & Sillage !!!!
P.S. Forgettable.
epheptaryprok – :
I personally really like this scent. It actually has surprised me how much I like this. When ever you have low expectations, there always met!! To me, I get a fresh green, minty, powdery scent.
Considering getting a big bottle.
Mike
bob77770 – :
A very grassy, minty scent. It smells like a fresh spring day where it had been raining a day or two before. Now the sun is out and there’s a nice breeze; everything is green. I like this cologne even though it’s simple. I get a lot of compliments when I wear this, more so than some of my big boy colognes.
Alexeika79 – :
This one is the worse smelling one of the 4 perfumes. It’s not that bad however! It smells exactly what it says here: Ginger and mint.
Yeah… Not that groundbreaking, but these were made to be easy to wear and accessible for a large range of customers and probably focused towards teens primarily.
All I am saying that all of the other colognes in the big pony collection are better than this one.
z14l82phen – :
quite soft and really pleasant, nice stuff.

Good for summer, good also is you are under 18 years old…

makscily – :
Smells pleasing to me, not my favorite, but good. It last a long time too, the best of the big pony series if you ask me. Casual and safe, no real complaints.
код давинчи – :
Like everybody posted on here it is a plain scent but it smells great especially early in the morning nice clean shower fresh smell gives you a little energy and most people will like it cause it’s a non offensive scent any age group could wear this one it’s just a clean smelling scent I think of zest soap the commercial from the 90’s “your not fully clean unless your zest fully clean” it goes something like that but anyways i’ll give it a 7/10 plain basic but non the less it smells great I’ve gotten a few “oh that smells good” from co workers it’s one of those scents like mugler cologne
Katahira1987 – :
It’s an alright cologne, but it (personally) gives me a headache. My bottle of this is just sitting on my computer desk, collecting dust.
carol-spal – :
Siento que es muy similar a big pony 1, más fresco pero en general lo percibo como big pony 1.
Que lástima que no mantenga la calidad de Polo tradicional, un perfume que usé por años y con una excelente calidad.
Lepnina524 – :
Yes its Linear and simple, but that is what makes this one so good. Number 3 has Very good silage, it smells natural after A very short time on the skin. The dry down is like your natural body oder, that what makes this so special! To me this is A great Day scent or could be A signature for others. It’s like this is the modern up to date Polo. Very green, Fresh and Masculine, the more I wear this the more I love it.
Just because this is not A complex scent, don’t sell it short. Many of the best Fragrance’s are linear, and to some that is what makes them so special.
8/10 Good Stuff, Best of the Pony line.
10/10 Sillage
8/10 Longevity

Unfortunately a very boring light citrus ginger thing. I have never been a big fan of any of Ralph’s citrus entries tho…
rehealthpassli – :
I am onto my second 75ml bottle of this and it’s got a quarter left. It is so fresh and light. I love it. I can only describe it as very fresh citrusy with a little spicy ginger. It doesn’t have much depth as far as the notes go but it is perfect for everyday use and sporting. It is a very universal scent, by that I mean almost everyone likes it. If you like fresh citrus smells, this is for you!
vgikv – :
Amazing longevity. so simple and smells so good. unique enough and not super common. resonably priced. all around awesome. my “signature” scent…
RuslanMartin – :
Ginger bomb! I got this the other day and was very impressed with the smell but had me worried on the longevity. I wore it yesterday afternoon and I have to say that the projection and longevity arent an issue. It’s very minty and fresh on opening but only for about 30 minutes then the ginger just pops. It’s all ginger and spices for about 6-8 hours until the projection is gone. It stays on the skin for maybe 3 hours and will stay on clothes for 8. Great casual summer scent.
brusnikin – :
yuM. sMELLS GREAT. But honesly, The entire big pony line smells a whole lot better on paper than it does on people. It loses its shine on skin and just runs flat like manly deodorant that wore off.
Fripingplurry – :
Big Pony 3 is as simple as fragrances come; two notes and a very linear life that for some particular reason seems to be the longest lasting and most durable of the four in the Big Pony cannon. From the opening spray the mint asserts itself over the rather organic ginger note but after 5-10 minutes both begin a bit of a struggle for supremacy, with the ginger becoming more prominent and ultimately coalescing into a rather finely blended mix that is well balanced and spicy and projects exceedingly well compared to the first two in the series.
Definitely recommendable to anyone who enjoys ginger but wants something simple and fresh without frills. Shocking longevity, 6-8 hours is quite common and 10 hours is not out of the question on some. Certainly given the simplicity this will be criticized for its sheer banality and imperative cloying qualities, and while this is certainly true, this is a very decent simple spicy that works well in the context of providing four different mood fragrances for the casual wearer not yet ready to stop and smell the roses.
Dimon_di – :
I do not like the smell at all. It’s fresh, but plain, and smells just like body wash. It’s only good for casual appearance.
Bambassogma – :
I’m just going to put it out there at to what I can smell, mint ginger vetyver pepper bergamot

serega6435 – :
My fiance owns this, i want to be close to him all the time when he wears this because it’s sooo sexy! Yum!
kku394speagoessenda – :
I probably shouldn’t be doing this, but I’m giving Big Pony 3 a neutral rating because it’s the most likable of the BP lineup. Some mint and an incredibly synthetic greeny heart, over a faceless and clean ginger and musk. I’m a sucker for green, even when it’s as soulless as this. I suppose if I were 17 and sexually frustrated, this would be my spring spritz. Anyone even a smidgen further along in life should just man up and wear the original Polo.
kosta49 – :
i detect the minty but more towards freshness than mintness. there is also a herbal/ozone green note
kinoposterman – :
Smells good 🙂 a bit like Stradivarius store-parfume but really ok on some skins 😀
cooortehsa – :
Ginger and mint.
I’m sure theres a suede note for the base there, something has to be holding this together.
Well it’s nice than my first try. Very fresh.
STANISLAVDrozdov18 – :
Sometimes you gotta keep it simple.
Keep a bottle around for super hot days and after-sex showers.
abassyWegiaby – :
Smelled this in malls, and got a small 1oz spray bottle of this after buying the #4…For me, this smells like detergent, as in laundry detergent…not too harsh tho…
dochkosmonavta – :
the best big pony i vant to smell on my husbend in the sommer i vill buy for him!!!
ichovolop – :
Simple, but tasty. The perfume is green indeed and it resembles a field full of fresh green grass. The mint is here, maybe a bit of ginger too, and of course lots of citruses. The scent starts bright and invigorating, but than becomes powdery and less minty. Yes, the ingridients are cheap, but the smell is not bad.
кичик-кич – :
Definitely like it, only thing I do mind is its longevity – maybe the others do smell it, but me not. I can feel a fresh scent for 10 minutes, maybe a lil more, but then, it all dissappears. I can recommend, although.
букреев – :
A true love/hate relationship with the third player of the Big Pony Collection. Very simple and linear scent with only two notes: ginger, and mint – yes, that’s all what you get.
The beginning is very fresh and green; well balanced combination of the two notes, but more minty for me, also sweet, very pleasant. After 10-20 minutes, the sweetness goes away, and the scent becomes sour and maybe a little powdery. Now you can easily detect the ginger but still the mint is the dominant. And that’s it so far. The initial smell won’t change from this point.
I like these two notes, but maybe it’s not the best idea to incorporate them; they’re better alone, or with other notes. As i mentioned, this combination gives a fragrance a sour and powdery feeling which isn’t pleasant at all. I wish the whole drydown could be like the beginning – well balanced and a little sweet. Not bad, but could be better.
The longevity is brutal on me. I mean, literally. One day i sprayed two early in the morning, and it lasted all day, easily recognized it on the evening. I’m sure no one has ever said anything like that before: i want worse longevity! Seriously. It’s not easy to smell this all day, kind of tiring. The sillage is average by the way. For everyday use only on spring and summer. Not for a formal dinner or a date, believe me.
The price is in the average category. Also, nothing special about the package. The bottle is green and clear, very nice stuff. Like the other 3 bottles from The Collection (with capital letter, of course) it has the number 3 on one side, and the familiar Big (not that big) Pony logo on the other side which i think is one of best logos on the market, if i can say something like that. Overall, it’s not a bad scent, but try it carefully before buy, and make sure you know it, becouse it can surprise you. Yeah, that’s it for today.
prokyz – :
I have to agree with other people here. Yes, #3 is good, it really something. The combination of mint and ginger really works. The best among the 4 big pony. Just after you sprayed it, the burst of minty fresh and ginger smell lead the perfume. However, drydown is not so good for me. The mint loose it freshness, but the ginger remain.Not bad, but I wish I could smell the mint on my man for longer. But #3 fails to maintain the minty fresh smell. The minty turns to aquatic-green smell which not so impressive.
Sillage is good, quite long lasting. Suit men below 30…
trohenuemneft – :
Pure herbal mint! I like this note. The best of the big pony collection in my opinion, without doubt…sillage is average on my skin. 8-10 hours with nice longevity.
Vladichek – :
Of all the new RL line this one was my top choice (none of them were really impressive).
Don’t look for complexity here. What you get is: light, fresh (nice mint) and simple. Certainly will not offend the working environment but would not recommend this as a date scent.
The sillage is just so so and I did not find the longevity I desire.
Overall, fairly generic in a nice way.
shalun123 – :
Having tried all these today I must say #3 is quite good. Having the same number as the Captain of a polo team, this one is very verdant and natural fresh and though I would have chosen a different scent for the captain this one I am sure will be very popular with the nature lover…
The listed notes of mint and ginger are definitely there and right off the sprayer it is VERY green, though not like original Polo was(Herbal and sharp), this one has an outdoorsy lush type of green that gets sweeter before the main duo of notes kick in. In the drydown (what I’m smelling now 6-7 hours later) is a hint of wood with vetivery type of manly green thats clean but sheer and ever so slightly warm-sweet…ala Eau de Vetiver
Sillage: decent
Longevity: quite good
Overall :3.75/5 (my #3 of the 4)
Every RL fragrance cannot be Polo or Safari, times change and so do designer scents. If you want to go green, this is the Pony for you. Remember rolling down a hill as a child in warm fresh summer grass? That’s how this one makes me feel…
ype674speagoessenda – :
This is a smell EDT almost mint, appears not seen many other aroma, is too simple, a minty smell fine but that is only perceived. Should be called EDC.
