Playboy Play It Sexy is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2010. Play It Sexy opens with Grapefruit, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Osmanthus, and Licorice, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Playboy's Play It Sexy carries a Statement verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

A divisive scent, many find it a surprisingly good, affordable dupe for pricier designer perfumes, but a vocal minority find it cheap-smelling and headache-inducing. Best suited for those seeking a playful, spicy vanilla fix on a budget, especially younger wearers.

About

Play It Sexy opens with a zesty burst of grapefruit and mandarin, quickly tempered by a playful hint of pink pepper. This vibrant start ushers in a warm heart of osmanthus and jasmine, intertwined with the intriguing anise-like bite of licorice. The dry down settles into a comforting vanilla, smoothed by creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, and the sweet embrace of tonka bean.
