Really Good for Its Target Audience
Even if I don't make any friends with this comment: I really think this one is great. It's been a while since I bought this fragrance. At the beginning of my passion for perfume, I bought all 4 scents that were released at the same time: Malibu, Miami, Hollywood, and Vegas. Each cost 9.99 for 100ml. In my early 20s, with a small collection of fragrances, I gladly took all of them. While I found the other 3 to be very, very unremarkable, this one was really very good. Just right for young men.
The brand is really quite trashy and often confirms the stereotypes of its wearers. Since the fragrance is in the foreground and not the brand, one should give every scent a chance. I have experienced many surprises, even with celebrity fragrances.
While the other 3 have mercilessly flopped, this one has remained a positive memory for me, and I still like it today. What’s best about this fragrance? The price! Even today, you can get it for about 8 euros. Just right for young gentlemen on a tight budget. For boys who don't yet earn their own money, it's definitely an option, provided they like very sweet scents. This is usually the case at a young age. Additionally, it is well-received by young women, and the Playboy fulfills its purpose.

The scent starts with apple, very fruity and sweet. Added to this is bergamot, which provides a nice freshness. What is present throughout the entire duration is the tonka bean. Very sweet. Vanilla and musk are also active here. A truly youthful creation that is quite modern. This type is similar to Diesel, but is sold here at a fair price.
A really great youthful fragrance that I can especially recommend to young gentlemen on a tight budget. Additionally, the performance for a fragrance in this price range is really very good. Also suitable as a starter fragrance.

Fear of Banishment
I also have to break a lance for this "cheap scent." I'm new here in the forum and didn't even dare to add Playboy Vegas to my "I have" list. You can't do that, I told myself. If others read that you use this cheap stuff alongside four Chanel fragrances and other prominent perfumes, they'll either laugh at you or declare you crazy. In any case, they'll wrinkle their noses...

Be that as it may: I have now added Playboy Vegas to my "I have" list and I stand by it. Yes!

I was genuinely afraid to dedicate my very first comment to such a cheap fragrance for a few euros fifty. Then you're done for with these incredibly knowledgeable and eloquent connoisseurs, I thought. Better not...

And now I'm writing anyway. Will I have to pack my bottles and be banished to the
fragrance nirvana? We'll see...

I discovered Playboy Vegas by chance during a longer spa stay in the summer. The already very low price was reduced by another 20 percent in the run-of-the-mill drugstore. There was (of course) no tester. In a crouching position, I secretly opened a package and sprayed a bit on my wrists - and was stunned. Even the top note was very pleasant: very fresh somehow and fruity (definitely green apples). This "aha" effect was enough for the purchase.

And outside the door: It kept getting better. I quickly reapplied on my cheeks and neck. It was a hot day in July, and I felt really refreshingly good. The mild floral and lavender scent flattered my nose on the way back to the spa clinic. And it didn't stop there; it even turned up with vanilla and tonka - all synthetic, I know that, but really well composed.

After the next two "applications," however, there was hardly anything left to smell. So what? At that price, reapplying during lunch break is really no issue. And when my neighbor in group therapy quietly whispered to me, "You smell good," I was happy (also because of the neighbor, I admit without reservation).

Before the cigarette break (in a kind of double carport without seating), I sprayed a little more - and received compliments again. The next day, I also got the Playboy Vegas deodorant. Used both after showering, it often put me in a really positive, cheerful, and satisfied mood.

Is everything grossly exaggerated? Guys, just give it a try...

And now? Will I be excommunicated, chased back to the aforementioned drugstore in disgrace?

PS: I only give the stuff 50 percent just in case, citing the low longevity as the reason. In truth...

Starting capital for aspiring players.
Encouraged by unusually favorable internet reviews, I dared to reach into the drugstore shelf yesterday, so to speak, grabbed the Playboy bunny by the ears, and without further ado, gave myself two pumps. As it turned out, that was an exceedingly hearty dose, sufficient for fragrance clouds of the "attention-seeking" caliber and persistent enough to still rub a noticeable tonka-musk residue under my nose even 20 hours later. What occasion would I think of for such a self-promoter? Night out and the morning after. Recommended for earnest Clerasil users and those who only shave every three days.
Seriously: Here we have an 8-Euro Gaultier replica that nearly accomplishes everything the latest, loveless enfant terrible of the Le Male series fails to deliver: the convincing refreshment of the lavender-vanilla center, achieved not by the frantic squeezing of citrus fruits, but with the help of a gentle peppermint and fruit tea treatment and aromas somewhere between Wrigley's Spearmint and Hubba Bubba.
The best part: This trick does not come off as half as synthetic as it sounds and is based on the same scent building blocks that perfumers usually use to create designer goods that cost five times as much, without the customers batting an eye. Certainly, a distinct test tube flair cannot be denied. However, in the case of "Vegas," at least you only pay for what you get: a decent, quite potent starter fragrance for youngsters who are now gaining access everywhere but always have to show their ID...
