by Giorgio Beverly Hills
Giorgio Beverly Hills is a bold, loud, and deeply iconic floral fragrance that remains one of the most memorable scents from the 1980s. It opens with a gushy, sunlit burst of apricot, peach, bergamot, and orange blossom, creating a fruit-driven floral wave that feels both synthetic and vividly alive. The heart is dominated by sheer, creamy tuberose, joined by gardenia, jasmine, and ylang-ylang, forming a lush, opulent bouquet that’s both sweet and slightly medicinal. The base brings a dry, earthy depth with chamomile, oakmoss, sandalwood, patchouli, and vanilla, grounding the sillage and adding a subtle, bitter-green contrast. The overall impact is powerful and immersive—one spray can dominate a room, and the scent lingers for hours on skin and clothing, even days later. Its performance is legendary: massive sillage and very long longevity are consistent across reviews. The fragrance is emotionally polarizing—many love it for its nostalgic power, sun-drenched vitality, and unapologetic grandeur, while others find it overwhelming, cloying, or outdated. It’s not for the faint of heart or those seeking subtlety, but when applied carefully, it can be strikingly elegant and deeply personal. It feels like wearing sunshine in liquid form—a statement of confidence and flair.
