As a lover of all things 80's, I knew I had to pick Giorgio Beverley Hills up. Managed to get this for an absolute bargain. This fragrance is something different, yet smells so familiar. It's loud and bold, yet also warm and luxurious. Its a powerhouse of perfume and only one spray is needed - has excellent sillage and longevity. I get a mix of white floral, vanilla, caramel, soft powder and a bit of a woody base.
Giorgio's really tempted me to seek out retro fragrances and be bold in my perfume selections. Will be a mainstay in my collection now as I love it. Giorgio screams power and confidence - its is a rush, whirlwind and an icon.
I love love love Giorgio! Funnily enough I bought a bottle today as I'd had trouble getting some until I found some in a perfume shop in Christchurch, then found some in the local in Farmers, So I now have two bottles. Yay!
The first time I smelt it someone else was wearing it, and it made me think of summer and fun and lightheartedness and joy, and when I spray it on myself these days I get the same feelings.
It is light and sweet, musky and sexy and very feminine - all of my favourite effects in a perfume. And it comes in yellow packaging - I love yellow!
I recently asked another woman what she was wearing, as it was so nice, and you guessed it - Giorgio, but it smelt a bit different on her.
The 90ml bottle I bought today was $60 but the bottle I bought in Christchurch was 30ml and $25. Very good for a beautiful perfume that doesn't wear off for hours.
As described in the blurb, it is timeless and classic and I will wear it until I can't buy it anymore. I hope that's a long time away, or never :)
Tips: Don't overspray - a friend described it as 'cloying' and it can probably overpower anyone in a small room!
