It was my first perfume, so it holds some nice memories, but what I love most is that citrus touch with lavender and woods. The downside is it doesn’t last, but for the price, it’s worth it.

At first, it smells like citrus alcohol, but then it settles into a wood and vanilla scent that reminds me of clothing stores. It has nothing to do with Armani Code. It lasts a short time and doesn’t project much, staying right on the skin, but since I got it for 3 euros at the supermarket, I can’t complain.

It smells great, but after two hours, it’s gone… what a pity.

It smells amazing, but after two hours, you can’t even tell it’s there… What a pity.

It’s basically a very strong copy of the classic Armani Code. When I bought Armani Code, I already knew I’d smelled that scent before, until I found the Playboy Hollywood in a drawer. Obviously, it lacks the projection and longevity of the Italian original, and the dry down isn’t as noticeable, but at first, it smells identical.
Broken Nose
At first, it smells like another cheap Playboy cologne, but then it turns around and becomes great with its wood and vanilla notes. It no longer smells like something for kids; it’s a step up and works well for day or casual nights. I don’t love it as much, but I admit it’s the best Playboy I’ve tried so far.
