What do reviewers say about Usher VIP and Givenchy Play Eau de Toilette?
The sugared caramel sweetness in the opening is either this fragrance's best quality or its worst, depending on who you ask. Here's the thing: once you get past that.Usher VIP
The coffee blossom is what sets Givenchy Play apart from every other citrus fragrance in the room. It's fresh enough for morning, warm enough to wear after dark, and that transition happens naturally.Givenchy Play Eau de Toilette
