Gucci Guilty Eau de Toilette

As someone said, this is VERY close to the original Gucci Guilty and my beloved OG Gucci Guilty Intense. It is about 97% and I am soooooo thrilled as the OG was a masterpiece and discontinued and impossible to find similar sexy lilac frag, lilac gets a bad rap these days it seems and can be very old fashioned if not blended well but this is STUNNING and so close to the original and intense which i've gone through 4 bottles of! Thank god they made this cuz all the other reissues smell nothing like the classic I almost gave up! I'd say it's slightly lighter and a bit fruitier, lending it a touch more sweetness but several side by side comparisons with Gucci Guilty Intense had me buy a bottle immediately as they are NEARLY IDENTICAL THANK YOU GOD!!! The new bottle is not as cool as the original and I feel its a bit top heavy and scares me it may tip but the juice is incredible and will have you GUILTY OF SMELLING DELICIOUS. This is a lilac with secrets. An extremely warm and a little spicy purple flower. It used to smell like the color lavender to me (not the flower) but now i get more of a black and it's hot and sexy in the most subtle unexpected way. Not your normal sexy sweet gourmand it's a sexy floral IMO. I've never smelled anything like this and its been my signature scent since the day I met the Intense flanker in 2017. I do not like powder or playdoh but I can sometimes pick those up but for some reason it just works and i find this to be utterly intoxicating and my most complimented fragrance. It does smell expensive and I'd say not for the teens. I wear it day or night hot or cold and will be buried in this scent.

This used to be one of my favorite grab 'n go scents. Was caught off guard when I noticed she no longer came in her cute little rounded square flacon. I blind bought this new formulation after discovering the notes are almost identical to the original. They've added raspberry and removed bergamot. Considering bergamot has a deeper spicier accord than other citruses, in its absence, we arrive at something less sultry, slightly softer and fruitier. Initially, I didn't appreciate it, as I was pining for the OG but over time, I've grown to love this :) EDIT: Just purchased a 30ml of the original on eBay. In a side-by-side comparison, the original is spicier, and soapier than this new EDT. During the dry down the original also projects stronger and for longer. Conclusion: While the original fragrance is a little edgier, in it's absence I've grown to love my new EDT version

I owned the original edp but I only got the travel spray to test it out before I committed to a bottle. I loved it but never purchased a full size, for some reason. Anyway, fast-forward to today and I got a 30 mL from Marshall's. It smells so good and similar to the edp just lighter and it doesn't last as long. But it is so good, they don't make fragrances like this anymore. I get a lot of baby powder fresh lilac, with a bright opening and a hint of the pink peppers, but not all that spicy, and a sexy amber-y musk at the base. It essentially smells like a grown up, sexy and sophisticated baby powder, perfect for any time of the day and season. I honestly wish it lasted longer but it's really good if you're into fresh scents and powdery scents. Lastly, I wish they still made them all in the older, all gold bottle. But this one is ok but the top is a little too tight.

I recently found a sample of this at the bottom of my makeup drawer. It has probably been there for years. I tried it and feel so lucky I did. On the surface it doesn't seem that original but there is something about it that stands apart from other florals and I'm having a hard time saying why. Maybe because none of the other perfumes I've tried were lilac? Maybe it is the lilac? But I feel like I've found he perfect floral for me. It is comforting, elegant, classy, not overbearing and but subtly unique. It is light but has good longevity. I like that I can wear it out to dinner and it doesn't clash with food. It's safe for wearing to work and also special enough for an event. I went out and tried all the other versions of Gucci Guilty and I definitely prefer this over the EDP. I love the bottle too.

Jezebel said it perfectly. This is elegant, somehow ethereal and expensive smelling. It’s a very perfumey perfume which I love, brings to mind scents of a bygone era but it’s in no way old fashioned. Suitable for any time or occasion for sure. I received a sample of the edp and loved it but only had enough loyalty points to buy the edt so after reading all the reviews for both, I took a chance and blind bought the edt. Zero regrets, love at first sniff. I prefer this to the edp as the addition of the raspberry and the vanilla notes are really noticeable giving it even more appeal for me as they’re favourites of mine. For an edt I’m impressed with the longevity. Sillage isn’t huge but I can smell it easily so I’m happy! I can’t say if it resembles the original as that passed me by sadly.
