Playboy VIP for Him

After all these years of having colognes there are only a few colognes that consistently stay in your collection as staples and oddly enough this cheapie but goodie has and will stay in my collection as it’s amazing onits own but especially at this price point. This smell is a very nice blend that I’d describe as smooth,creamy,slightly boozy,warming,seductive but also at the same time it has a unique freshness that keeps it from being cloying even with excessive sprays. I’m also very confident that if this had a Guerlain or Dior label that this would be a top seller. The main notes I personally smell are the chocolate,apple,rum and lavender which all happen to be some of my favorite notes in fragrance ! Caution though that the opening is a little synthetic but if you give this scent some time this blends beautifully and it’s 1 of my favorite dry downs of all time as it’s a great mix of creaminess and freshness. Performance on this is decent but only if you spray 10-12 sprays. This sounds extreme but this is a scent you have to douse yourself in if you want to get noticed. But, the good news is that even with some very sweet notes it doesn’t become cloying. It lasts me 4-8 hours and doesn’t project a ton but it does leave a very nice scent bubble and decent Sillage. Compliment wise this is 1 of my best compliment getters as it appeals to people that like both sweet and fresh scent as again it’s a nice balance of both types of scent and my gf LOVES this scent and requests I wear it from time to time.VIP is also a nice starter gourmand scent for those wanting to try something new. Overall rating— 8.5 out of 10 ! Very beautiful scent that gets compliments,is universally liked by everyone, and for the price it doesn’t get much better than this. This goes in the cheapie but goodie hall of fame for sure !!!

I really like this. I smell...pineapple? That's not a listed note but taken as a whole that's what I get. It was one of the first fragrances that I bought after deciding to start wearing them again. I liked the shiny gold bottle, it was cheap, and it said Playboy. It grabbed me and said I'm going home with you. Playboy just has a way of doing that for males. Lol. It doesn't last long on me (2.5-3 hours) but I can just spray more since it was like $8 at Hellmart. I also don't feel guilty using it because it's cheap and I know I can actually find it at the one store within an hour of me. I have better and nicer but I find myself using this a bunch when I'm in a hurry and don't want to think about which cologne to wear. Most people like pineapple (and LOVE chocolate, and ADORE rum, haha!) so it's safe and it's not so strong that I fill up the room with my scent presence. Now, it us a sweet scent with a gourmand take on pineapple (or apple and rhubarb, the actual listed notes), not sharp or citrusy.

This was the first cologne I ever bought. I was maybe 10. Years later, I bought another bottle of it for the nostalgia. It is absolutely fantastic. It is quite sweet, but it works well. The blend is difficult to describe, but it is boozy with hints of wood. Obviously, it has a negative stigma due to the brand and extremely affordable price. Despite this, it is one of my favorite colognes, and it really does punch far above its weight. In accord with the playboy brand, it is a fun, out-there scent. I find this one fun, relaxed, and casual, but with excellent taste. I highly recommend everyone (including women) try it out. I believe it has been discontinued, but it is still available for 10-20 euros. Absolutely lovely cologne.

I'm a woman who wears this and loves it! It starts out pretty masculine which I think is mostly the rhubarb mixed with bergamot. Wish I could detect at least a little of the rum note, as that's one of my favorites. But within an hour or less the sweet drydown leaves me with a creamy white chocolate/vanilla sandalwood that is sublime. Very understated and a great unisex fragrance! Excellent for layering. My hubby wouldn't like this since he doesn't care for sweet notes but this dries down to be something so subtle I find it hard to tell the difference between this and many of my perfumes. It's creamy, it's dreamy, it's affordable and a great value. I'd encourage a man OR a woman to give it a go. :)

blind bought this based off reviews, I had smelled jordon and i must say this is better. I wouldn't say they smell the same. Jordon to my nose is a lot stronger and has a pungent cloying smell to it, neither jordon or this smell like rochas man. Rochas man has a deep and darker coffee/mocha layer to it these don't. this is very nice though, not overpowering. Not as chemical as i thought it would be. Not too shabby at all

This is absolutely irresistible!! To me its up there with le male, blue jeans, and ck one shock. What I like about this is, its not super woody and spicy. I can only stand so much spice. I like the smooth rum and white chocolate notes. The watery accords and apple work very well in this to freshen it up. This is one I want again when I run out.

I really love this, as much as I didn't even care enough for the female version to smell it. I've smelled this one by accident and was shocked at how good it is. Not overly sweet but rather subtle, with the white chocolate really lovely, it has a good presence. And apparently I'm a sucker for rum. Lovely to smell it on a guy, or on myself.

I love this one! This is probably the best Playboy fragrance on the men's side. It's sweet and boozy with some tonka bean and apple. It's good for colder weather but it's not overboard. It does run a bit feminine because it's sweet but it's still a masculine fragrance. Initial spray blows my socks off every time. It's good!

Im going to try and get back into wearing this again. Ive avoided it because of some memories that it brought back but I still love it. And I agree with what a reviewer wrote at the bottom, it does resemble Britney Spears's fantasy to an extent and then it reminds me of axe dark temptation.

A very creamy and decadent fragrance. Its opens with like a shot of rum cream. Within a few hours the fresh lavender notes kick in and makes it very interesting. The creamy white chocolate scent is mostly what you'll get. Its a nice casual scent and could be worn for a date.

Sexy rum and vanilla smell with hints of apple and white chocolate. Lasts around 6 hours and projects okay for maybe an hour but goes to a skin scent. Very good for intimate situations e.g a date night. But for £10-£15 this is something I can definitely recommend. 8/10

Smell nice! Delicious .. The Rum gives a touch of class to the smell. Suitable for winter days .. On my skin takes about 7 hours .. projection is moderate. Smells good overall. Sillage: 7/10 Longevity: 8/10 Scent: 8.5/10 Overall: 7.5/10

This is amazing, I love the smell! I got it for Christmas!!! I put some on last night at 8pm, and I got up this morning at 12 (noon) and I could still smell it. The smell is really light, refreshing, and relaxing, my favourite cologne!

Antonio banderas Seduction in Black, Armani Code, Axe Dark Temptation. These all have the ultra sweet Vanilla, Tonka Bean note. VIP is great and a budget brand. I'd like a full bottle of this myself. Very noticable and room filling.

2 words.. "Rochas Man" ..... It smells exactly like it... If you like gourmet fragrances & like Rochas Man, then you will like this, especially considering its 1/5 of the price.. Check it out...

I like to wear masculine fragrances from time to time and this one is definitely one I'd recommend to other women. It smells sweet but not too sweet. I really enjoy it.

Bought it on a whim when it was on sale, now one of my favorites ever. It smells much better than any of the Axe products. Very classy and sophisticated scent.

Smells better and is longer lasting than Michael Jordan Legend and Rochas Man. Cheaper than both too. The white chocolate note is terrific.

One of my favorite fragrances for men. I love white chocolate tones in combination with rum. I like the sweet fragrances - even for men.

It smells so good but the performance is bad so you have to do like 10 sprays but i recommend checking it cause its really cheap!
