I have it and I love it, tremendous trail and fixation, but… it’s a slightly dated scent.
An 80s perfume with a youthful twist, featuring a white floral blend of creamy gardenia, neroli, and ethereal Ylang Ylang. It’s floral and sweet, with a ripe fruity sweetness of peach and apricot jam. It has a fun and decisive character. It stands out for its performance, which is extraordinary for today, with a heavy and enveloping trail. On my skin, the fruity sweetness stands out (I think the reformulation boosted the fruits and reduced the florals), but it’s a standout and unmistakable. To add a sparkling touch to your life at a brilliant price.
Giorgio Beverly Hills is floral, sweet, vanilla-infused, and intense with a fruity touch. It has a moderate trail and longevity, but for the price, it performs incredibly well. It reminds me of Amarige by Givenchy.
Chamomile, neroli, amber, and vanilla with talc. It’s very vintage from the 80s, super intense and long-lasting, but it can be oppressive in the heat. It’s a well-executed layered perfume of excellent quality; if it weren’t for the talc, I would definitely buy it. The patchouli gives it a nocturnal touch.
To be honest, I love it; it’s purely floral, with the floral neroli and dried chamomile standing out. I like it because it’s one of those fragrances that I can still smell myself after four hours, plus several people have complimented me because they notice it too.
I’m a teacher for girls aged 18 and upwards, and they often ask me about this scent because they love it. The longevity and trail are impressive for such a ridiculous price.
It was mass-produced in its day; everyone smelled of Giorgio Beverly Hills. I would never wear it.
This was my 15th birthday gift back in the 90s. Its scent is exuberant, sparkling, and luminous, nothing goes unnoticed. Back then, it demonstrated elegance and class even if you were young; it defined my trends. It seemed optimistic and sunny, cheering me up and making me feel happy. I’m not sure if it’s the same fragrance today or if it was reformulated; it would be a shame. Its opening was loud, like an explosion of joyful effervescence. Over time, it became more powdery and serious, but never less elegant. I would love to return to that yellow Giorgio scent and my 15-year-old self.
First impressions of this legendary perfume… absolutely stunning on my skin, I loved it! I bought it blind based on reviews and curiosity (and the great price). It reminds me of the Giorgio Beverly Hills Red from the 2000s, which I was fascinated by; two or three sprays lasted days on winter clothes. Today, with the cold, a single spray on my hand instantly filled the room without being overwhelming. I think I’m going to love it.
I’ve had this for a short while and it’s identical to the Expression by Esika I’ve worn for three years, though this one is less sweet towards the end. It’s elegant and explosive, bold, and ideal for women aged 40 and above. Rich and long-lasting, it needs time to settle properly on the skin.
It’s a BEAST of a perfume… But I loved it 💖. I bought it blind, didn’t know it, but by the reviews and notes I acquired it for my collection of LUSH Body Sprays. I use it diluted like the LUSH ones… It’s at Indie Aroma level, although I know it’s a Vintage, but for me it’s completely a CREAMY YELLOW FLORAL AROMA.. I’M HAPPY 😊.
Ohhh, what a lovely comment, blue dragon. One of my favourite perfumes ever, I’m just using it now for fear it might spoil; I have two little bottles of about 25 years. What lovely, a vintage that for me is a timeless classic (if you’re not scared of the containers to find it). It was the perfume of my best friend when she was about 20, what a perfumazo and what times. Narcotic of dreams, sexy, devastating… I wouldn’t tire of showering it with compliments. I remember it was very expensive then; I had to save quite a bit to get it; now it’s super cheap (don’t fail to smell it, it’s almost a gift, but without much heat). What stands out most for me is the neroli and ylang-ylang. I know I’m being heavy, but don’t fail to try it if you have the chance (I cross my fingers they haven’t reformulated it); although the passage of time is noticeable, it would make more than one niche blush.
Perhaps the habit of a characteristic scent is generational. When I find these vintage fragrances, I understand why my bottles are taking over the house. The interesting thing is when a scent comes out at the beginning of a decade and really helps to define it: the aspirational name, the intrusiveness, the desire to live without limits… it sums up the eighties. I think it was fun to grow up in the eighties, there are many things I look at with affection, and some perfume proposals have been unforgettable. Giorgio fits in this category. The times of Dallas, General Hospital, and The House in the Prairie; I was very young and years would pass before going to the department store for my first bottle of Kouros. It was the perfume of a cousin of mine; at my 18 years old, I noticed her too busy trying to be big, daring, and brazen. She lived life as big as possible, with golden dreams and dramatic soap opera reality, so I suppose Giorgio fitted perfectly her style. Sometimes I watched her secretly while she put on makeup to go out with her friends and shine in the disco. The final touch was sprays that literally flooded the bathroom and the house, leaving a cloud of perverse poison as alive as a carnivorous plant. Spraying this radioactive event on the skin, you immediately notice a bright touch of green, followed by a massive accord of fruity and orange blossom notes. Each facet is quite sweet: neroli, gardenia, ylang-ylang, and jasmine. There is something pleasant and rich in the powdery tone of the amber, vanilla, and sandalwood combo as it dries, but really you can’t experience it until almost the end because the monstrous power of the neroli, gardenia, and fruit stupefies your nose to olfactory submission. It’s sunny and pretty, a potent weapon for a woman who demands to be noticed: bright, soapy, floral, and sweet are the sensations that will make you live this potion. A big aroma, like many aromatic bombs of the eighties, suitable for ladies endowed with a courage that knows no limits.
Who would have dared to launch a commercial, sustainable perfume rivaling giants like New York or Paris? The name is Fred Hayman, a visionary who bought a boutique in the sixties, making it a landmark of the eighties. A place where there were only petrol stations and hardware stores, which with prestige and celebrities became a sumptuous shopping promenade in Los Angeles. Giorgio is more than an American perfume; it is pure luxury and extravagance; the quality of the notes throws current fragrances overboard. Nothing was spared, in an era where the customer was filled with quality gifts without being deceived. There was reputation, prestige, ambition for improvement without losing quality or attention. Giorgio Beverly Hills for women came out in the early eighties showing that glamour. It was an instant success; although it wasn’t cheap, the marketing was so good that it sold out quickly. Everyone wanted a piece of that American splendour. The quality of the aroma was unequalled, the Ylang Ylang note better constructed than I could appreciate, with a delicious and creamy aura, white flowers sparkling without restriction, chamomile with a just herbal touch. Real oakmoss (not synthetic) with musk and amber close the base. Although there is peach, it’s not the typical one of the nineties; here it just accompanies. In Giorgio, the queens are the flowers and the base notes. This fragrance polarised the world; it was banned in some places due to its excessive trail. Although it’s not for everyone, no one doubts its quality. Over the years the aroma changed; it had two major reformulations (mid-nineties and after the two thousands). Both versions leave much to be desired. I defend reformulations in general, but here it’s like taking a colour photocopy of a Monet: it looks similar but the original strokes are lost. Those nuances and depth disappear, and besides, the fragrance cheapens components becoming more synthetic. Giorgio is impossible to cheapen; it belongs to a moment. If you want to smell it in its splendour, you have to go to that moment. The same nose years later would produce Red, another rich fragrance. Fred Hayman sold the brand to Avion by the late eighties and created a boutique with his own name.
Giorgio by Giorgio Beverly Hills is a great perfume, a gift for my mother in 1988 brought by my sister’s godfather from the US. Literally, it was an explosion of intense, lasting, lively, cheerful, and sweet floral aroma; it permeated my mother’s room. I never forgot it because it was glamour in a bottle, lasted 12 hours or more, and on her coat! Uff, a week. It was another era; I was eight years old. It evokes memories of when our mothers got ready in their toilets and we played at being grown-ups. It’s extraordinary how our olfactory memory takes us back to the past to experiences of emotion and happiness. Unforgettable! A vintage where aromas had notoriety, durability, style, femininity, elegance, and glamour: the beautiful, nostalgic, and magical eighties.
Exquisite and potent perfume, it flooded the room upon application. I used it in the eighties; it was fashionable and I liked having it; I bought a large bottle and used it a lot, but it was hard to finish. It was too strong. Now I have the body mist, similar but much softer, and so I can remember and appreciate it without suffocating. It’s a fragrance with a lot of personality and presence; it makes itself felt. It’s putting it on and saying ‘here I am’, ready for someone else to feel invaded. Back then it was like that, very strong, in the style of others that were used a lot. Perhaps at that time the concept was not to go unnoticed and be invasive. It lasted days on clothes and a whole day or more on the skin. I can’t say I didn’t like it, but I wouldn’t use it as a perfume again, only the body mist which is much softer. Its notes are felt and are lasting.
Although I haven’t smelled Giorgio in a long time, I remember it every time I enter a Persian crafts shop with bergamot incense. When I buy there, the scent permeates my house for days; I like it as an ambient scent, but not for perfuming myself or clothes. The same goes for Giorgio. It’s admirable that it has been on the market for four decades and still sells so well. Although I liked G more, all my respect to Giorgio.
I’ve been using it for nine months and am on my second bottle; it has become my signature scent. People are delighted when I walk in and I always receive compliments. It’s addictive; I find it fresh (perhaps due to the bergamot), with neroli, moss, and chamomile, nothing sweet. It’s a gem, pleasant to everyone, leaves a trail as I walk, and lingers in the room like incense. I don’t know the original, but this one is excellent. At 36, working in tribunals with colleagues my age or younger, the millennials have accepted this vintage giant quite well.
The eighties, summer in American style, and the fair, all in a rather ugly bottle but with a wonderful striped box, yellow and white like a seaside awning. Giorgio smells like a seaside trip, weekends at the beach, well-off family cousins, a wardrobe full of yachting gear… movie things you feel when you close your eyes. I’ve worn it for two years; if we don’t click, I really like it. I use it more in winter as it contrasts with the cold and smells like the promise of the end of term; in summer it can be a bit overwhelming. I tried it off the cuff at a Primor for a laughable price. At first, I said it was very Amarige, but from another perspective, reinterpreted. As it dries down, the delight appears: my longed-for aroma of a vanilla ice cream cone, festive, pure Classique by Gaultier. Smell of a carousel, popcorn, bygone times, impossible tanning, white tops: a vintage aroma that starts to smudge but is comforting. I detect a hint of geranium, though it’s not listed. People say it smells like an ‘older person’, but as it dries down, I receive many compliments; it’s splendid, white, and playful. It lasts a long time on clothes. I’ve read it was reformulated and was better before, but I haven’t checked. Acceptable price, decent trail and longevity: all-terrain and tiring, but with the air that you’ll return to it. This is Giorgio.
Giorgio BH in my personal imagination was the scent of one of the most popular girls at my school, back in the late eighties. She must have been hiding it from her mother, or not, because there was everything there: even YSL Paris were worn by others. What a level, because I had to make do with Don Algodón and was grateful when I got Tess, which made me seem more adult and naughty. The truth is that nowadays it’s hard to imagine a young girl wearing Giorgio if you consider that now the vast majority wear bakery gourmands and would hardly appreciate mossy bases, although there will be exceptions. Giorgio isn’t about trail, it’s about shockwaves. It’s a floral bouquet of epic proportions with a glazed ylang-ylang, very creamy and exotic vanilla on the head. Amber, woods, moss and a tiny bitter touch of chamomile come to bring a bit of moderation, but only a bit, so we don’t get hit by a truck. It’s a voluptuous and round femininity. It could have been the perfume of Anita Ekberg at a Roman party or Jayne Mansfield in full cleavage competition with Loren. It might not be the freshest or most discreet floral, but it’s mischievous, party-loving and has a nostalgic presence that takes me back to the nightlife of the eighties. For optimistic minds and those without complexes.
After reading the reviews, I was convinced to buy it. The EDT arrived, and to be honest, I didn’t like it; it feels shouty and vulgar, very seventies style. I’ll give it time to change my mind, but today I’m disappointed and feel I’ve spent money on something rather tacky.
I love the smell of my childhood, my aunt used to wear it and I loved it. It’s a much-loved scent that brings back many memories of my childhood. Only for lovers of vintage and very floral scents.
It’s a tremendous bomb. It seems quite similar in the first few minutes to Carolina Herrera from the same brand, only the latter is more floral and slightly soapy. It also reminds me of Boucheron, only the latter is slightly honeyed. I definitely prefer Giorgio as the moss is very present. Boucheron seems cloying and Carolina heavy-handed. Obviously in all three, neroli and some white flowers are the protagonists; but each has characteristics that differentiate them. I wish someone who has all three could give me an opinion on the matter. To use outdoors if you don’t want to get intoxicated. I would wear it with a pastel yellow piqué polo, white shorts and a straw hat.
I just got it and initially it seems super strong and reminds me of an edgy perfume for an older lady. I admit it’s an excellent quality fragrance, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to wear it. I had read it was strong, but I didn’t imagine it would be that much! Used to be disappointed with new fragrances that don’t last more than two hours, I wanted to try it because surely it has great longevity. Haven’t used it yet, so after the first use I’ll update my review. After several months updating: I had to gift it away. I couldn’t handle it. I don’t even try to describe its development on my skin because there is no evolution. Atrocious from start to finish (if it even has an end). I gifted it to my mother who loves sweet, strong perfumes with a great trail, and from what I can see, she doesn’t use it.
Its box seems to be for a fresh, fun, youthful and delicate perfume, its bottle simple and antique… But what’s inside is surprising, surprising for its longevity, tenderness, elegance and enthusiasm. Here we have a perfume at a laughable price, a perfume for its trail, longevity and dry-down that makes it special. Nothing mass-produced at least in my circle, which is a point in its favour. I hope they don’t discontinue it or water it down. Always, always in my back of the wardrobe.
On my way to becoming my signature scent. I smelled it for the first and last time on my mother’s friend, whose personality fascinates me: bohemian, arts-loving, free-spirited, a devotee of enjoying her personal space (almost therapeutic), with an honesty that can sometimes be overwhelming… For me, Giorgio, in part, is that. And the best thing is that I haven’t smelled it on anyone else, so either it’s not mass-produced or it changes a lot from person to person (I lean towards option A). Here comes the ‘but’: you need to know how to apply the right amount. A prudent-distance spray on each side of the body is enough; it becomes sensual, delicate, and yet never goes UNNOTICED. Floral with a warm, summery touch, not as cloying as a floral in itself, but with a touch of makeup that makes it hyper sexy and attractive, generating compliments even though it’s the antithesis of the current sweet feminine perfume. For me, it’s a clean, sexy scent with strong personality without being overbearing. It could be perfect if it had packaging befitting its scent, but if this is a plus to make it less commercial, then I prefer it this way, although, please, that metal cap could be improved.
This fragrance was gifted to me by my husband and I found it unbearable. I was surprised to see the number of followers it has on Fragrantica. Its strong smell of combined neroli with the other notes gives me a punch to the nose from the very first moment, very unpleasant to my sense of smell. It has a brutal performance in trail and longevity, but the scent isn’t for me; it’s very strong. I would say DO NOT BUY IT BLIND under any circumstances, nor gift it to anyone unless they have previously told you they like it. It’s not a scent for everyone.
POWERFUL, elegant and long-lasting… I was gifted this when I started university. I couldn’t handle it… it’s been about 15 years and it’s still too neroli, more neroli and more neroli. It lasts two days, leaves a trail and it’s madness. If you spray too much, it gives you a headache. It’s not a bad scent, but I see it as very vintage for me, perhaps for 30 years from now. If you like neroli, it’s a gem, impeccable presentation and excellent quality.
I’m not sure if it’s good or bad, but even though I don’t wear it, it’s part of my life. It’s my grandmother’s favourite and is unmistakable. It smells like bottled 80s: flirty and eccentric, but as I’ve become saturated with it, I only imagine it on a 90-year-old lady. It’s pure neroli with some fruit and sandalwood-type woods.
Smells like talcum powder, very dated, like someone from an older generation. Suitable for daytime or work. It’s potent and lasts an incredibly long time, but I wouldn’t use it again.
A jewel that marked a milestone in perfumery. Flirty, not sweet, a floral that leaves a trail. It has a citrus touch at the start that wraps you in optimism. Upon drying, lovely neroli blooms. It’s sparkling, cheerful, and explosive. Know your tastes well before buying; they say it was banned in US restaurants. All the women used it. It’s the 80s in a bottle. I imagine Pamela Anderson using it while filming Baywatch on the beach. It was inspired by the Rodeo Drive shops in Beverly Hills, where the high-born Californians shopped. Imagine Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman strolling through those shops. Giorgio smelled on the women of that era. It was the fashion and a historical milestone because anyone who wears it gets noticed and receives compliments. The box is inspired by luxury shops and the bottle is beautiful. Spectacular price.
I adore neroli; almost my entire collection is like this. Giorgio Beverly Hills has pure creamy neroli, but it doesn’t last on my skin at all. Perhaps I’m used to strong cypresses like Paloma Picasso or Rumba. It’s lovely, I gave it a chance, but it just isn’t for me. It represents a sunny, fresh, clean day, slightly soapy. Update: I’ll give it another try.
I searched for months… what a sad disappointment! I only smell moss and earth, none of the expected neroli. I thought my sealed bottle from a fixed seller might have an issue. I’ll wait to see if it needs maceration, but for now, it’s a total no.
Based on recent reviews, it seems strongly reformulated. Previously, the neroli was the absolute king, throwing it like a pro, with spectacular trail and longevity.
Update after trying it a thousand times: I thought it would differ from the samples and was disappointed. Giorgio Beverly Hills is fresh and a white floral. Upon application, it smells like a flower shop with natural, powdery, creamy neroli. It lasts 4/6 hours, soft on the skin. The trail is potent, filling the room with two sprays. I received many compliments; I combined it with neroli oil and the magic worked. My batch is from 2016, made in the USA, which is said to be the most faithful. I lacked the woody notes or for it to develop further. If you want something fresh, with a bomb trail, and for summer, try Grès Cabotine. Giorgio falls flat.
The opening is ‘Vanderbilt’ and the dry down is ‘Coco EDP Chanel’; I love it. 10/10.
Bought it blind and I’m super happy. It’s potent upon application, but dries down to an addictive, brilliant scent. I only use one spray and it lasts hours, even after a shower.
I had this as a girl and it smelled of exquisite white flowers. After reading the formula was changed, I recommend Lattafa Rose Fakhar for Women, the white bottle with rose gold accents. It seems almost identical, sharing many heart notes. Hope this helps.
I bought the body mist because reviews were split and the EDP is pricier. It’s a super comfortable scent that transports me to carefree years of just learning and playing. It’s like a time machine taking us back to beautiful memories. A creamy white floral; the neroli doesn’t shout and blends well with other flowers. I don’t detect moss; the patchouli is subtle. There are yellow notes from ylang-ylang and chamomile, but the whites dominate. The peach and bergamot balance without standing out. Try it like me in body mist or full perfume. Generation X and millennials will love it.
Smells like a yoga studio with gorgeous, wealthy girls. Floral incense, Lululemon leggings, and vitamin smoothies.
