Playboy Hollywood Eau de Toilette is a men's scent that opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and thyme, then moves through jasmine, lavender and cedarwood into a vanilla, amber and vetiver base.
Skunky's take: A card-carrying member of the fresh club.
How does it perform?
From 39 community ratings, all out of 10.
A short but sweet date; a travel size in your bag is a good idea.
Whispers to close friends, never shouts at a crowd.
Plain bottle, the real show is inside.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

WoodyWhat does Hollywood (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Hollywood's longevity and sillage are both rated weak, so it suits anyone who wants a light scent that stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure and daily wear lead the occasions. Half of those who voted call it masculine.
The opening pairs the brightness of bergamot and mandarin orange with a spicy edge from thyme and elemi resin. In the heart, jasmine and lavender add a soft, powdery step, while cedarwood and rosewood build a woody frame. The base turns sweeter with vanilla, amber and musk, and vetiver and sandalwood leave a dry woody trail.
