Gucci Guilty Eau

My favorite Guilty flanker! At first Guilty Eau was not an obvious love for me, cause it's subtle. But subtle in a sexy way. There's something subtly sweet about this. Like a natural sweet smelling skin scent. This is a warm fragrance. Also there's something powdery in there. Not listed in the official notes, but definitely there none the less. I have a feeling that this might become one of those "I'm not sure she's wearing perfume or if that is her natural scent but she smells so damn nice!" ...types of scents. Precisely because of that characteristic I have now moved from like to complete love with this fragrance. I tested it today, if I can't shake it off my mind by tomorrow I might have to splurge and add it to my collection. It's very different from anything else I own. Tbh I can not smell any of the individual notes listed. Call me crazy but I almost sense an old school makeup-y/baby powder/ facial cream kind of smell to it. In a Good way! In my books thats definitely not a bad thing at all. I recommend smelling this out. It's unique in its own way.

So initially i wrote this review for the Gucci original but its actually for this one! Ulta had a good selection of the Gucci guilty team and other Gucci perfumes, so after testing them all on paper, this one won a place on my wrist. It instantly reminded me of these elegant perfumes mature ladies wear to fancy events, of course a more youthful version - I used to go to the opera a lot as a kid and this scent brought me back to that amazing spring night atmosphere with ladies in sparkly dresses and with their mink boleros on, where their perfumes would all blend together with the scent of the white flowers of the night - must be the lily. As time passed by it became more intense, in a good way. It def distracted me while working out - at first I thought maybe a window is open and this aroma is coming from outside because that flower note smelled so real. I love it and prefer it over all other Guilty scents.

Gucci Guilty EAU pretends to be a light smell of flowers. This is this quiet girl in the classroom but when she speaks out, the class would shock. Well... this is how I perceive this baby. Starts quiet and soft... but at the end of the day, you will still have a strong kind of smell toned down, if that makes sense. I TOTALLY LOVE IT. And I purchased it the second day I sampled. I use to use strong perfumes despite the hot humid weather, this is perfect because I can have strong notes in a soft perfume. My chemistry goes well with this. When I saw the notes, I was really surprised. Tbh I didn't expect either the litchi or the aquatic notes. I was expecting powder, vanilla, black currant, even coffee, and maybe jasmine.

@Mademoiselle: "Guilty Girl" would be great >lol

I really like this scent. Some people think it smells like baby powder, and I get that. I first smelled Gucci Guily EDT on my sister. She used to wear it when she went out on the evenings. It was through her fur coat, curled hair, statement necklace 'glamorous phase' :) so to me this will always smell like those things. Gucci Guilty Eau was a gift from her to me, as she knew I loved the smell. Although this is a different flanker, it smells enough like the original to me. I really like it for when I am wanting something clean and soapy that smells classy. It's a good choice for work as I don't think it would be likely to offend.
