Givenchy Play by Givenchy for men

One of the best on this site

Overrated smell

After purchasing a 5ml vial, and finishing it one week later, I went out and bought the full bottle. The coffee and grapefruit play so well together. The peppers comes out to play and brings it all together.

This is a really good scent but it doesn't hold very long on my skin. I stopped smelling it after 5 hours of applying it which isn't too bad considering I can just reapply it again or wear it more in the summer. Though not too powerful Play has some character to it and I am glad I came back to this house after having Play Intense about 6 to 7 years ago. As far as I can tell both Play and Play intense smell identical but Play intense may last a bit longer, which, could prompt me to buy that one again in the future. I believe you can wear this fragrance at anytime and location and I would rate it an 8.5 out of 10..

Update: Play lasts up to 10 hours on my skin. I caught a wiff of it when leaving work around 6pm. I usually spray my cologne around 8am. It was good knowing a very nice scent was still lingering around that time.

I like the intense version of this cologne better

Nice combination of fruit and woods, which really stands out in the dry down. Would recommend.

Stylish and enticing with a great longevity. I love the added coffee note. Very masculine and stands out in a crowd.

I don't get good projection however it does last a long time close to skin

This is a great masculine fresh scent that doesn't punch you in the face about it. The notes compliment each other nicely. Loving the added touch of the coffee and pepper notes in this one. These notes make it stand apart.

This is a very prominent club scent. It's definitely the kind of scent that a guy wears to get noticed. The notes are very stylish, baseline, and captivating.

I really think it's a masterful scent, but the cologne does have one weakness to it. It's the first cologne I've ever experienced that actually gives definition to the word drydown. To explain this, the scent seemingly drops dead entirely after a couple of hours, and leaves you with a rather stale aftereffect.

It's kind of unpleasant, but the scent itself it definitely worth it, so just be warned not to spray this on once and walk out the door for the rest of the day. You'll definitely want to keep this on hand so that you can keep all the notes brilliant and alive.

Very pleasant and interesting! Once my bf burns through his collection I bought him, I'll be investing in a full bottle.

Play is my daytime/casual scent. Pi by Givenchy is my evening/romantic scent.

Pure intensity

GF loves this...very sexy. Must try.

Nice, sweet, but I like the intense version more!

You can't go wrong with this cologne. It truly is a sexy scent and lasts a good while. It can be worn day or night. Bought some for my man and will continue to do so. You won't be disappointed if you purchase a small sample. Try it! I bet you're gonna love it!

This cologne is amazing! You've got to try it. Just try it! I'm telling you it is such a great cologne. It smells so sexy! It's great for day or night! It seems to really last and I can't get enough of it! Purchase a little bottle and I bet you will not be disappointed. We went and bought the big bottle from Ulta! It's so yummy!
