Where the name might come from?

Well, I really don't know what is supposed to be Pin Up about it, maybe the packaging..
As for the scent, I can say; I like it.
To be blunt, I like it and I didn't expect that because I would have expected 0815 scents from Playboy and.. well, it's not very striking, but it somehow has a very nice composition of ingredients that I find very appealing. I think it has something of a sweet fruity gummy candy, and I like gummy candies. For the price, it's definitely a scent you can treat yourself to..
By the way, for me, it was something like a transition.. because out of the blue, I couldn't wear any of my perfumes anymore from one day to the next..
During that difficult time, this one accompanied me.

A Grapefruit Drowned in a Sea of Sugar

This or something similar would be the title of the film adaptation of this fragrance. It would be a cheaply sentimental Rosamunde Pilcher adaptation, barely suitable to survive a rainy Sunday evening. The liaison begins cheaply and ends cheaply. The fragrance itself starts fresh in the top note, but not classically citrusy, something else, with a lot of sugar on top.... Grapefruit dies in sugar. The grapefruits that are beautifully orange-pink.

The grapefruit soon bids farewell to oblivion and makes way for a vanilla note. It is a sweet, not heavy vanilla that confidently carves its way out of the sugar. Other notes resonate faintly, but what exactly they are.... hard to decipher through this sugar veil. The vanilla itself is somewhat artificial and not typically warm.

If someone were to gift me this fragrance, I would enjoy it and keep it. For purchasing it myself, the individual components have lingered a bit too long in the sugar, and the vanilla could be more harmonious, a bit heavier. And the fragrance does not develop towards powdery or heavy; there is no depth present. It is almost a bit one-dimensional, or rather two-dimensional, from sugar grapefruit to vanilla.

It is really not bad, but also not very spectacular. If it were to develop a bit more towards the end, it could certainly be a candidate for purchase. But as it stands, I will stick with my sample.
