Playboy Play It Sexy is a dark, intoxicating and seductive fragrance, with sensual and sophisticated aromas, ideal for "hot" nights.
Top notes: pink grapefruit, mandarin and pink pepper. Heart: jasmine tea, scented flowers and licorice. Base: vanilla, patchouli, sandalwood and tonka.
The bottle design is so cute. The bunny ears & bow are the USP of this range of perfumes, I reckon, but I find the eye on the bottle unnecessary. At first I thought it was a defective bottle!
What drew me to this perfume was, of, course, the bow. I cant describe fragrances as well as I can describe lipsticks, but I can say that this is quite similar to Britney Spears Fantasy, but subtler & it smells subtler and subtler as the minutes go by. My nose usually picks up 3 of the notes: pink grapefruit, scented flowers & vanilla.
When it's still wet, it smells kind of masculine- like an aftershave- but when it dries, it smells Chanel-ish. It's the type of fragrance I imagine Marilyn Monroe had on while standing on the air vent.
Also available in 'Play It Spicy' & 'Play It Lovely'. I picked this simply coz it's pink, otherwise I would have picked Lovely :)
Price ~ Rs.550. For that price, I think you won't be disappointed.
Rating ~ ♥♥♥♥♥ 4/5
P.S: Hope your week started off well. I apologize for not posting regularly lately. I'm just...I don't know...going through a bit of a struggle- mentally. Nothing serious, just...you know, life. I've got a ton of pictures in my computer already, but writing seems like a chore (can't concentrate). Don't worry though, I still love to blog & I'm still very much here- loading my gun, one bullet at a time :)

Cute! I had no idea they had a perfume... and interesting. It smells like aftershave and dries to a Chanel scent? I need to try this for sure.

Don't worry about not posting hon, life comes up and this is not life or death stuff here. My boyfriend loves this scent, but something about it is just too......I don't know for me. I prefer light florals and to my nose this borders on spicy.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried Play Boy perfumes.. think it is the time now :)
ReplyDeleteI have sampled this scent (sold at CVS pharmacy by my house) and am not liking it.. It looks pretty but the cap is made of plastic.. =/ if i were to spend money, i'd rather buy designer perfumes but that just my opinion....
ReplyDeletelol abt the 'loading my gun' part!! hmm I know why you got this...all credit goes to that pretty bow on cap hehe ;)
ReplyDeleteI read the price after I had hit the 'Post Comment' button. :-P. Nevertheless thanx for pointing it out to me. I have never seen Chanel no 5 in stores like Shopper's Stop, Lifestyle, etc. I have read about the perfume though. I trust your views on such stuff. Have you sampled the perfume? Does it merit the worldwide hype?
ReplyDeleteNo problem :). I personally don't like Chanel No.5, so I don't get all the hype. I think it is available in most perfume stores in India

Hmm... so i thought. Actually products such as perfumes are marketed in such a way that it targets the lifestyle and the sex appeal of the user. Chanel being such an eclectic character in her lifetime, bore well for the perfume's marketing.
ReplyDeleteU really do read all the little notes in your vanity case! Appreciate it!
