Gucci Guilty Black Pour Femme

This is way, way better than the original and all other flankers. It is standing on its own, though vaguely retaining their DNA. The red fruits here are so well balanced with flowers and Patchouli and Amber. On my skin, reacting with my pH, this exudes in a much refined, smooth scent. Very classy, and I wouldn't have guessed without testing it. It does not project beastly, but it's perceivable and persistent with a great consistency. It doesn't fade or morph into a disfigured rendition of its top notes. All seems to work in harmony creating a demure sophistication, a comforting aura around me. I only sprayed it once on the back of my hand and yet people stopped me to ask what it was that I wore. I love it and recommend it to those with rather dry and colder type of skin like mine. I'm pretty sure that the slightly alkaline pH would make this fragrance sing like a nightingale. As it does on me. Who'd have said? Buy testers as I think that this needs a particular chemistry to release its magic. A keeper for me, and a decent 7/10. I'll enjoy wearing this daily, everywhere. PS: this nose knows magic, I'll check his other works! UPDATE: 2 hours in, the Amber and red fruits are singing from my skin!!!! "Casta Diva, che inargenti Queste sacre antiche piante, A noi volgi il bel sembiante Senza nube e senza vel... Tempra, o Diva, Tempra tu de' cori ardenti Tempra ancora lo zelo audace, Spargi in terra quella pace Che regnar tu fai nel ciel..." This. Is. Suave. Plaisir. My 7/10 went up to a fat, round 10!

I love fruity scents that have a little substance beside the fruit notes, and Guilty Black is just that. It opens with peach and raspberry, which are sweet and remind me of gummy candy here. But the intense, dry pink pepper, musk, powdery violet and hints of lilac balance the scent, so it smells like a good perfume and not like some gummy bear bodyspray. In the base I get patchouli and amber too, so the fragrance turns warm and slightly sensual. It becomes better the longer I wear it, contrary to Guilty Intense, which has a nice opening, but is lacking in the drydown, at least on me. The only thing I would criticise about this is that I wish the lilac note was a little stronger. Guilty Black is more flirty than deeply sexy and "guilty", and not a black or dark scent. I would say the gold packaging from the other scents of the Guilty line would be more fitting with this, maybe with some red or dark pink accents. I don't think I'll buy it, because my collection is so large, but this is a pretty and versatile scent. I'd happily use it if I got it as a gift or if I found it for an extremely good price.

This is a warm sweet fragrance. The fruity sweetness hangs just on the edge of too sweet but never crosses the line. The patchouli, amber, and floral notes keep this fragrance in control and give it the warmth that tempers the sweetness. It feels a little young but not so young that I am uncomfortable wearing it. It also seems to lack something to really give it a unique scent. Its not exactly generic but it doesn't have the wow factor. Longevity is moderate and it leaves an impressive scent trail. All in all its nice but probably not something I need a FB of . Edit: I had a mini bottle of this so I continued to wear it. The more I wear it the more I love it. It last about 7 or 8 hours and almost everyone finds it to be pleasant. It isn't particularly complex but its a nice basic fragrance. I think I have changed my mind about the need for a FB after wearing this scent for about a week. EDIT 2: Gucci Guilty Black has become one of my standard cool weather fragrances. I wear it frequently from October through February or March. Love it.

Call it basic but I always loved how soft and pretty this scent was. Of course- Gucci watered it down and then discontinued it, making my remaining bottle a serious disappointment. However— I got Lattafa’s Nebras today and since it has some similar notes but is just a touch linear, I thought it might layer well with it. Well guess what Guilty Black girls n’ boys— I have something even better than both Guilty Black or Nebras now. The Nebras makes the Gucci pop again and then turns into a vanilla velvet with the faintest florals. Let the mint die down for a minute, but once it does it’s very smooth. I also layered with Lalique Amethyst, which I like but does get a hair too sharp for me at times. The Nebras accentuated the red berries that I love and smoothed over that sharpness that I don’t always want with a light vanilla frost. Tried to layer with Very Good Girl (Carolina Herrera) and it was just meh, took the sparkles out of it. Hope this helps someone rejuvenate an old bottle of Guilty Black! Happy Spraying!

FIRST IMPRESSIONS I am a big fan of the originial Gucci Guilty and Guilty Intense so I was expecting to like this. I sprayed it onto my hand and I instantly loved it. It was definitely Gucci Guilty, but much sweeter, much more fruiter. The pink pepper and red berries are definitely detectable. The patchouli is just a hint, so all you patchouli-loathers need not worry. Nicely blended fragrance, not too much of anything. SILLAGE & LONGEVITY Not great. Around 4 hours max. Stays close to the skin. Considering perfume never lasts long on my skin, no matter how strong it is, I'd also check other reviews. FEELINGS PROVOAKED Sexy, edgy, modern CONCLUSION A nice edition to the Gucci Guilty family, It's definitely worth a try. And I think it's worth mentioning I've seen Guilty Black selling online much cheaper than the originial Guilty so shop around for a good deal (I've seen the 75ml selling on allbeauty.com for £31).

While cleaning out my room yesterday I found a sample spray of this hiding away somewhere. It's not the kind of thing I usually wear, and I'm not even sure where I got it because it's not the kind of thing I would be drawn to, but because of that it was the first thing I reached for this morning. Surprisingly enough, I'm very impressed! This starts off with a juicy fruit note (current, I guess, but I actually thought it smelled more like raspberry) and then mellows out into a creamy peach/lilac combination. There's just a hint of spice in the background but it's not overpowering--even my dad, who usually hates patchouli, decided he likes this one. It's less "dark" than I was expecting but it's very pretty. Since I haven't tried the original I might do that before I decide if I want to get a bottle of this, but I really like it and I'll have fun using up my tester.

This is absolutely my new favorite perfume - I love it so much! Beware of dupes, those smell vaguely like Gucci Guilty Black should, but they are just a puff of air compared to the real thing. The real GGB is sweet, subtle and fresh, and the longevity is quite good. I can smell berries with pink pepper and possibly raspberry, with sweet and tender amber caramel base. On top of that it's somehow different from anything I smelled/owned before, win-win for me definitely. Surprised to see people comparing it to regular Gucci Guilty, they are very different on me, the latter missing the tang of berries and caramel sweetness. On the contrary, it's rather similar to Dior Addict Eau Delice (unfortunately discontinued). So here's to my new found love for berry scents!

Right off the bat, this one smells a little like sweet baby powder because of the pepper, violet and lilac, but after a few minutes, the peach is definitely noticeable. It's nice and ripe, yet not in that way that makes your mouth water. After that fruit wears down, it feels more well rounded. It is so delicate and dry and warm, though the fragrance was inspired by "danger." Patchouli isn't really present on my skin until the end, but it isn't super prominent and just gives a good edge to the violet. After eight hours of wear, I can finally notice raspberry and amber, and it pulled something vanilla on me! I do prefer this Black version over the originals, since they lack a "something." I think the red berries in this juice did the trick.

I spent a long time in the store deciding which fragrance I was going to purchase, and I ended up choosing this one over the original Gucci Guilty and Gucci Guilty Intense. What kept drawing me back to smell this again and again was something I couldn't put my finger on for a while.. Then I realized, it smelled exactly like chocolate covered cherries! Juicy, dark and sweet at initial spray and then developing into something sexy, cuddly and warm still with a little kick of sweetness. Although it's an EDT it really lasts a good amount of time, close to 5 hours on my skin. Perfect for fall and winter, this is an absolute go-to smell for me when I want something sexy for colder days.

This is in my top two favorites. It's sweet, but clean and sensual. It is Light, but smoldering at the same time. I purchased it, and YSL Black Opium together. My everyday fragrance. I was shopping on vacation and tried it. Outside the plaza, my husband asked if it was me that smelled so good. It doesn't last as long as a few others, but it definitely lingers on the skin the next day. Men love this scent, and I do too. I am on my third bottle. The only thing I do not care for, is the dye in the perfume. It stained my white blouse pink! I was under the impression that it was only the glass on the bottle that was pink!

I don't get those bad rewievs. This is not that bad. I actually like it... a lot! More heat and deeper than the original Guilty, a great favorite of mine. The greatest difference is in the dry down part. There is something vanilla-like scent, patchuli..? As i've always hated vanillatic scents, this is improvement for me. Dior Hypnotic Poison is absolutely the worst vanilla-oriental scent on earth. Gucci Guilty black is fresh, warm, sweet and at the end; vanilla. An for the record; not a granny scent at all. I love this one. I won't buy Guilty Intence version, I'll get this instead!

Tried this at Selfridges yesterday and loved it! Smells just like Intense but with a fruity top which is delicious. Don't find it synthetic at all. I was with my boyfriend and he said it smelt so good he could eat me! This well definitely be my next purchase when I get paid! Edit: Yes it is sweeter than GI, but personally I prefer it. Although I must admit, sometimes the patchouli did begin to annoy me, but I own both and when spraying them together on separate wrists, black just has the juicier, more girly edge.

The intial spray blast was not that great- smelled plasticky to me. However, let me tell you- things quickly changed for the better! This is the perfect scent for young sexy moms who rock! It's fresh, sexy, addictive, and comforting all in one... not at all black or dark, like the bottle suggests. I also get a beautiful powdery smell that reminds me of my daughter's baby powder (Johnson&Johnson soothing chamomile/ lavender). Highly recommend to anyone- it's also very safe.

I LOVE this frag. It's sweet, but there are some spicy undertones ;) Maybe it's not exactly sexy, but seems like a good scent to wear when going out on a date when you're in your late teens-early 20s. Works great with my body chemistry, but since my skin is extremely dry (like, "bleeding when I stretch my hand too much" dry) the longevity isn't the greatest, but it manages to go on for 4-5h, which is pretty much a miracle on me!

I love this, one of the best from the Guilty line. At last I found the most airy and soft violet which gives subtlety and is not as heavy, outdated and mature as the one in EDP. The fragrance is beautiful, elegant, airy, enriched with sparkling red fruits and berries. It's also the most sensual of the line thanks to subtle peach and caramel. Such a beautiful everyday scent.

That first spritz really reminds me of Bvlgari Omnia Coral... & then it darkens & warms up the same way Gucci Rush does on my skin, I feel like I get the Caramel note very early on with the Lilac, Peach & Violet sitting reaaal nice & then the Patchouli, Amber & Caramel seep through 😍 one of my fav blind buys! It smells very different to the Original on my skin!

Guilty black pour femme is a fruity sweet perfume but it’s not your basic fruity sweet perfume... it's bold and sexy!! It’s sweet and juicy from the berries and peach with powdery violet and lilac and some spice from the pink pepper. The base is warm, ambery, caramel and the patchouli is just right. It’s a compliment monster and makes me feel like a baddie!

Gucci Guilty Black for women is a lovely floral with fruity berry notes with a hint of spice and patchouli. It’s longevity and sillage is moderate, may be few hours on my skin. However the scent is not a typical floral but different in a sexy way. It is a bit similar to the original Gucci Guilty but has more depth and lasting power. .

Quick update- paired the Nebras with Gucci Guilty Absolue- wow. Softened it up but still packs a punch without the headache for me. Layered the new Gucci Guilty parfum in gold and pink which was just sitting there living with me being mad at it for being so dang boring— Nebras brought it to life. I can wear both of these again now.

Slightly spicy and red berry at first, then dreamy and sweet floral. It's very pretty, definitely dominated by lilac for me, which I love! I don't get the name but I actually think the bottle is pretty nice, though it makes me think of batman. :D Lasts a ridiculously long time on me, I smell nice all day long. :) Love!
