Gucci by Gucci Eau de Toilette

Unlike any perfume I’ve been able to find, I’m so sad it’s discontinued, and I’ve resorted to buying from eBay. Eden perfumes do a similar scent called Bye Goochi, but it’s not quite the same (although the dry down is very very similar, so it will have to do when I can’t source it anymore!). This is my signature, wear anywhere, any time scent. It matches any outfit, work, date, sleep, it’s sooo versatile. I love the EDP too, but the EDT beats if for me, as the dry down is slightly fresher, both are amazing though and I have back up bottles of both! I’m not a fan of Gucci in gerneral, I quite like bamboo and once used a bottle of it after a blind buy on a plane, but gucci by Gucci is such a stunning scent, so well put together I don’t even have words to describe how it smells. For those saying it doesn’t last maybe it’s a bit of noseblindness? As although the sillage isn’t huge, this lasts so long on me, I can literally smell it the day after I’ve sprayed it. Love it. Edit: The day after spraying on skin this has gone, but the EDPis still present as a skin scent. Both last days on clothes. Edit. Just adding that I’ve bought this perfume regularly since it’s release. There has been no difference between my vintage bottles from the time of release or the newer ones I’ve bought or been gifted in 2018, 2019 and 2020. I’ve bought many, many bottles of this and the EDP, and due to keeping back up bottles I can directly compare different years. These are my signature scent, I would know. All my bottles are stored in the cool and dark.

I fell in love with this perfume almost instantly; I received my full bottle yesterday. I was searching for a new fragrance to replace my old signature - Coco Mademoiselle - and while I love that one I wanted something still sophisticated but a little more "fun" I suppose.. This perfume is perfection. When you first spray it it is quite in-your-face patchouli (which I personally love) but then as it dries it settles down into this wonderful blend of sweetness and honey with the patchouli taking a back seat. The guava and pear are not tropical at all, just blending with the honey to make a sheer sweetness. It smells classy and elegant but also playful and feminine with the lily and neroli appearing as it starts to fade. It unfortunately only lasts for a couple of hours on my skin but I enjoy it so much that I don't mind having to re-spray.. It just means I get to smell the wonderful progression of this perfume over and over again throughout the day. It screams luxury but in a modern, youthful way. I feel confident and know I smell amazing when I wear this. Best blind buy I have ever made, and my new signature. <3

Another love at first sniff! Gucci by Gucci EDT has a little of that wonderful something I had already found and loved in Prada Infusion D'Iris and Chanel Coco. I'm not sure what that is, but if it's in a scent, I almost always love it. Orange blossom, perhaps? At any rate, the Gucci is a beautiful example of a modern chypre floral. In spite of those fruity top notes, the fragrance is not really fruity on my skin. I think those fruits just soften the flowers a little bit. There's a faint whisper of sweetness, but nothing too juicy. The EDT gets to the dry-down pretty quickly and stays there for hours. I found this fragrance to have decent longevity in this concentration, but it stayed very close to the skin all day. I may seek out the EDP for what I hope will be a little more "oomph." The comparisons to Narciso Rodriguez are fair, but I think NR has more of a "head shop egyptian musk" vibe. Gucci has a bit more complexity to my nose. Ahh! One more for the wishlist!

Gucci by Gucci was my signature scent for years and I have found nothing that comes close, to the point that I didn't buy any other perfumes for years after it was discontinued. I have since turned into a fragrance enthusiast and wanted my first Fragrantica review to be for this fragrance! I think I discovered it when a salesperson at a department store offered it to me, it wasn't something I sought out. No one note stood out and it just settled into my skin so nicely. Sillage was small, but I didn't spray much and it could be noticed by those who were close to me. I had both the EDT and EDP over the years, but like others I preferred the EDT which had a soft, sweet richness. I last bought a bottle in 2022, but it was definitely missing something and I have stopped trying to purchase it. It will remain as an old love, and I will continue my fragrance explorations.

I've had this fragrance for about a year now, and I had to change my "like" to a "love." At first, the patch was a little difficult for me, but as I have grown in my understanding of perfume, I have learned to appreciate what a gorgeous scent this is! The patch is present throughout the life of the perfume (and it is a long life - longevity is 6-7 hours on my dry skin). The pear lightens and brightens the heavy patch, and gives it a shimmery quality that is feminine and fun. The honey note is sexy and sensual - not cloying or overpowering, but just enough to draw you in. I am heartbroken that this perfume is discontinued, but I will continue to enjoy every last drop of it until it is gone!

I had to change my like vote to love, because when I put this on I can't get enough of it. As the weather starts to get hot my other typically sweet perfumes feel too stuffy. This one is sweet but also refreshing in a way that I find addictive on a warm evening. The honeyed pear combined with a crisp white flower and refined patchouli, is modern and classy. I imagine it's something a rich, young, attractive lady would smell like. It's unfortunate that it's sooooo weak. It neither prjects well or lasts long and I find myself spraying like a perfume junkie needing a fix every hour. There are some perfumes where one spray is enough, this isn't one of them.

I think this is more a chypre fruity/floral. I like it much better than the EDP, which I found too heavy and sweet. This is a little cleaner, still not what I would call light but it does wear off relatively quickly. Complex enough to have some character; a nice change from fruity florals if you want something a bit more sophisticated. I think I'll carry a small decant in my purse to reapply next time I wear this one. Have to add that I think the bottle is absolutely adorable!

I adored this fragrance and was gutted when I heard that it had been discontinued. It's a fruitchouli done right that is meant for a woman. It's brash, sophisticated, and soft. The opening is loud and sweet but transforms into a lovely, memorable, seductive scent. The addition of neroli and lily of the valley make it a touch more romantic than the EDP, but I love them equally. Gucci has not given us anything I've remotely liked since this release. I'm savoring my last bottle.

I just bought this one blind because I love the EDP so much, intending to use this as a base to make my precious bottles of the now discontinued EDP go a bit further. But I discovered I do also enjoy this on its own. Like the EDP mixed with sweet nutty vanilla ice cream, this is lighter and less earthy and just beautiful. Becomes a bit of a skin scent quite quickly, but every now and then I still get a beautiful waft up to my nose as I move.

This one goes right to the top of my wishlist! Light, fresh and so fruity it makes my mouth water, but still not too sweet. If they made Gucci by Gucci candy, I'd eat it! ETA: IT'S MINE! I've worn it for the past two weeks or so, and I'm seriously considering marrying this scent and having its babies. Even on the crappiest of Monday mornings, it perks me up and makes me feel a lot less bleary. True love in a bottle!

It's feminine and distinctive on me. I can clearly feel the patch, also some pear and white flowers. What i can honestly say, it make me feel like I'm in an old library, kind of has the old books smell on me, which I f***ing adore! Thinking of making this my signature scent just because I love books ;) P.S.: On my sister smells classy but not with the old books vibe, so this must be my chemistry.

This fragrance really works for my skin chemistry. I love the sweet, fruity top notes and the orange flower in the heart. The patchouli in the base both sweetens and sharpens this scent. The style of the composition reminds me a bit of Miss Dior Cherie, although this fragrance feels more like it's made for a woman than a girl.

Sexy, sensual, deep floral. I say 'deep' floral because the patchouli and musk are ever present. You have to love patchouli to enjoy this one. There's something a bit mysterious about this fragrance, it smells rich and luxurious. Lovely stuff. Sillage is very good. More beautiful and easier to wear than the EDP version.

Beautiful perfume I love to smell the simply gorgeous blend of musk, guava/pear and patchouli over and over, but it fades so quickly wish it had some lasting power on me. Edit: I’ve noticed after some uses now that it doesn’t so much as fade away quickly, as it just becomes a close to the skin scent. I love it still.

I just recently purchased this as a blind buy and I regret it. It smells really pretty after the dry down but as soon as I sprayed it I instantly got a headache. I think it's the insane amount of patchouli at first spray. This will not be worn anywhere near my nose. I'll save it for the lower half of my body.

Soft, sensual, seductive and cozy at the same time, and very feminine. I love Gucci by Gucci! This fragrance can be worn in the day time as well as at night, and good for cold or hot weather. One negative point though: it doesn't last more than 2-3 hours on me.

O-M-G !!!! Just received it today... I am IN LOVE! Absolutely beautiful fragrance that lasts a very, very long time... Sweet, yet not too sweet, fresh, intoxicating, super sexy. Cannot wait to wear it again tomorrow!!!!!! Gucci by Gucci EDT is my new fave!

it smells rich and sophisticated . This perfume reminds me a woman with high heels with very chic black dress and red lips and white pearls on her neck. I agree that is the new Channel no.5 . I just looooveee it

Was a present from my ex . Its so wonderful smelling so feminine and classy,its still lingers in my mind, totally I LOVE IT <3

Reminds me of falling leaves and leather. I just love it. Wish it lasted longer, though.
