Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Playlife Men evolves as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Benetton comes through in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Aromatic, Spicy and Wood. At family level the composition sits in Citrus and Wood.

When the pyramid is blended into one block the notes arrive together with a airy lemon mood: Citrus accord, Mint, Spices and Woody Accord. In this format 4 notes act as one voice, creating sunny vitality that keeps the opening compact and balanced.

The deeper layers are read as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which keeps the fragrance coherent.

The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Wood and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. The gender direction is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.

Taken together Playlife Men reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best understood in wear.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Very conspicuous
5
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

Honestly, this scent is cold and refreshing, but that's about it. Wood and spicy herbs are interesting, sure, but mint? It smells kinda weird, I don't know, maybe it's just me. It looks nice on the outside, but it has zero longevity 😒
