/ 10 community score
Very Hollywood is a polarizing Michael Kors fragrance that leans heavily into over-the-top florals, particularly gardenia. While some appreciate its bold, campy nature as a guilty pleasure scent, others find the gardenia overwhelmingly synthetic and uninspired, making it feel more like a 90s air freshener than a luxury fragrance.
Strengths
- Bold, unapologetic floral scent
- Successfully captures over-the-top, campy aesthetic
- Good for those who enjoy dramatic, maximal fragrances
Weaknesses
- Gardenia note is overpowering and chemical-smelling
- Not what most expect from a Hollywood-themed fragrance
- Can smell cheap or artificial to some
