Gucci Guilty Intense

Ambery floral goodness! This EdP may not totally fit into the sinful and kind of provocative concept suggested by the name and the ads, but there’s definitely something addictive and overly sensual about it which I couldn’t find in the - nonetheless pleasant - first version. On me Guilty Intense feels vibrant and cozy since the opening, with the sparkling blend of red pepper and mandarin orange providing a juicy, kind of nectarous crispness: the spicy aspect is quite noticeable in this initial phase, more than in the previous Edt where the emphasis was instead put on the fruity tones of peach, although the peppery note manages to stay demure and gently tickling, adding a certain warmth to the briskness of citruses. The overall effect is sheer and smooth at the same time, like a bright summery sunset. Shortly after the floral heart appears: a seemingly undistinguishable bouquet of velvety flowers in which only lilac really stands out with its intensely sweet aroma, luscious and almost erotic in here, while delicate hints of heliotrope lead slowly to the ambery undertones from the base. From there on the composition seems to turn down the light and at the same time it acquires depth, getting a bit darker and more voluptuous without losing its radiant aura: the beautifully blended drydown, dominated by an honeyed mélange of amber and patchouli, melts so well with my skin to create the sensation of a luxurious body lotion applied after a bath. I wouldn’t go so far describing this fragrance as having a “your skin but better” quality to it, because all in all this is a quite perfume-y scent if that makes any sense, but probably its self-proclaimed sexiness comes from that creamy aspect provided by the amber and lilac accord that, to me, recalls the scent of warm silky skin. I feel like this is a fragrance I should have in my collection one day, being a lover of sweet/ambery florals: after testing many from this group I would say Guilty Intense falls into the category of those flororientals I would be able to wear on a daily basis thanks to its perfectly balanced sillage (not too subtle neither obtrusive in the least: just right) and the very good longevity (about 8 hours on my skin). Having to choose only two words to describe this scent's personality I'd say it is equally polished and seductive: it doesn't try hard to be complex or at all costs unique, but in my book it is a must try for those looking for an easy to wear oriental that's both warm and luminous. All in all, a beautiful and in my opinion underrated/overlooked fragrance (that's often the flankers destiny....).

This is the kind of sexy I want to be. Come-hither, feminine, sensuous...all in a subtle, delicate fashion...but it makes quite the impact, even in it's subtlety (though it is subtle only in comparison to other popular dark fragrances in the market). It's the kind of scent that stays in your scent memory. Maybe it's the lovely lilac that's dressed in warm amber, and lightly powdered in spices. Heliotrope adds some sex appeal to the regular Guilty formula and violet adds a touch of mystique. Very womanly. A little mysterious, a little coy. Gently teasing. But ladylike and classy. I've run out of my mini for months now but I can still smell it when I think about it. The initial phase is especially heavenly and sensuous, and I get a little disappointed when it dials down into a thicker, slightly darker version of Gucci Guilty after 30mins, Still better than regular Guilty though. This scent is perfect for those who are not usually into dark or heavy scents (like Alien, Black Orchid, etc) but still want something 'sexy' for a night out. This is for the more demure, soft-spoken vixen. Also for lovers of lilac who want a more urban interpretation of lilac as opposed to the usual English garden variety. It makes a statement without screeching for attention. It's great for day-into-night wear as well, all year around, and versatile enough to be a signature. Sillage and longevity are both moderate, but good enough...just spray a little more if you want more oomph. Good stuff.

This is one of my favourites, it comes second to my signature. Light sweetness in a bottle with some nicely blended flowers in the background. This is a floral scent, but it's not what you'd usually expect from a floral perfume. I've never been a fan of floral perfumes, mostly because a lot of them contain heavy white flowers or a rose note that dominates everything. No, this is definitely not your stereotypical flower powerhouse. Guitly Intense isn't heavy or suffocating like most floral perfumes. It's rather fresh and 'sparkly' smelling, almost like a fruit champagne. I always get a whiff of honey whenever I put this on, even though it's not listed as a note. Delicious! I don't find it especially sexy (I've owned sexier scents!), I just wear it because I like it. It's appropriate for daytime wear as well! Don't turn this beauty down simply because it is a popular clubbing perfume! I receive compliments when wearing this, mostly from my friends whenever I hug them. Like I said earlier, this is no powerhouse with monster sillage. It's a bit light and I usually spray around 5 times so that other people can smell it on me as well. Longevity could be better, however the real problem with this scent is that it becomes a skin scent rather quickly. After about 4 to 5 hours it just becomes a skin scent that you can barely pick up anymore. It lasts longer on clothes so I just spray some on my scarf. I will definitely repurchase this when I run out!

ohh im soo lucky, just had a birthday and my hubby bought me this, is beautiful-its floral yet not at all old fashioned kind of flowers, more sweet-ish flowers with just a little bit of spicyness so its not heavy at all. Heavenly sexy sent that is sensual and creamy.If your blind buying as a gift i cant see how anyone would dislike it as its soo lovely- but just 1 thing- its not on me as long lasting as it may be on others-thats its only downfall-my partner said its totaly beautiful-really sexy perfume, i have never owned a very floral perfume b4 as i have sents like chanel coco , angel liquer and alien etc so strong sents are usually my thing, this does not project as much as those types of strong and heady perfumes but its totally beautiful and very summery and very easy to wear so an all round yummy sent u cant really go wrong with, but i do agree with those that say it should linger longer for the price ,could just be my skin sucking the life out of it :) Bottle is stunning,well made,expensive,classy- feels good as you spritz this, i,m 42(shhhh lol) but it made me feel like im a sexy early 30,s and still have my mojo :) I would deffo get this 4 myself when it runs out as it makes me feel sexy happy and warm- but in a soft sweet, way, rather than a showy kind of way if that makes any sense :) LOVE -LOVE- LOVE THIS FLORAL ORIENTAL !!

I just received my first sample of Gucci Guilty Intense --- OMG, I can't stop smelling myself. It's GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!! I have several new fragrances arriving this week, as I was always wearing Vera Wang Princess & G&B's Light Blue, but I'm ready to try something new as my signature scent. I'm thinking I've found my next signature scent in Gucci Guilty. I'm also receiving Viva La Juicy, La Vie est Belle by Lancome, & Flowerbomb in the mail in the next week --- so who knows, maybe I'll love one of those more, but it's going to be hard. I can tell that it's going to be hard to figure out which one to invest in to become the ONE I wear daily. Gucci Guilthy Intense is soooooo awesome!!!! I love this perfume....now I can see why all the great reviews - it's sexy, which is exactly what I wanted. The only thing I'm unsure of is whether it has a strong enough smell, that was my problem with VW Princess. I only put a small amount of my Gucci on today since I'm not going anywhere, but I could smell it well, so I'm hoping others can too.

Gucci Guilty will always stay in my mind because it was the first perfume i got myself and the one which started my perfume collection. I remember the cool Jared Leto campaign and I was a teen and didn`t have the money to buy it. In my college lunch breaks I would go and spray it and feel like a million bucks. Then I finally got it and I wore it a lot with my leather jackets in autumn. I also find this dark and intense, but also mysterious and really smooth. I pick up the amber, lilac, violet and pink pepper. Not good for warm days the amber dominates everything else and it starts to smell dirty. Easily unisex. But it smells luxurious, soft, sexy and reminiscent of iris perfumes but not old lady like. For some reason this smells like marzipan, violet and lilac to me.amazing projection and longevity. Unfortunately its discontinued, not the same as the new intense version and this intense version was the best.

I went to ulta ans was looking for a fragrance somewhere between night and day time and I think I found it. I smelled about 20 perfumes at ulta and when I smelled this I even said “oh” out loud. This is a perfume that smells like a strong confident woman would where which is why I got it! The first thing I notice is the Citrus. Floral and a deep sweet musk( no candy sweet here which I love ) on my skin this last 2 hours it sucks and I was disappointed. But on my clothes? Omg till the next day! I’ll take that! After 12 hours I still smell it on my shirt, The citrus goes away and you are left with a deep sweet musk slightly floral. Upon spraying, you can smell it from arms reach, after some hours only up close. EDIT: I honesty might return it because it does not last on my skin at all, you can smell it on my clothes but it is very light. I think I would like to get something with more staying power.

Glamor in a bottle!!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this perfume!!! Guilty Intense was a blind buy for me after reading all the great reviews all over the internet. I was initially put off by the price, but after smelling it I had no regrets. The most prominent notes are pink pepper, lilac, amber and patchouli. If you like Black XS, Flower Bomb and Diesel Fuel for Life, YOU WILL LOVE Gucci Guilty Intense.

The other day, I went to the salesperson and told her, that I was bored and would she be kind and give me some scent-samples. She gave me this. It has a plain plastic stopper and I was afraid I was going to spill it all over me. Well, my fingers got wet and I managed to get some of it on my wrists. Ok, what was it like? This is pure sex! That is what came first to my mind. Hot , steamy and erotic. Lush and juicy at first, deepens to a very sexy, musky ending. Long lasting on my skin. Well, of course I had to phone my friend about it. We had a great time figuring out different occasions to use Guilty intense. She had a better word for Guilty intense, with a twinkle in her eye: Po*n-scent. She told me she was going to put some on when going to bed, next to her husband. See what happens..? Does he even notice ..? Anyhow, I WILL purchase this when possible.

One of my very first fragrances alongside Bvlgari Omnia Crystalline. What a great time it was when the designers were creating stunning, complex smelling scents with great performance for a decent price. This is the fragrance that made me fall in love with lilac in fragrances. It was so addictive and sexy smelling. I have always loved how the lilac smell in my parents garden but Gucci put it in a bottle with added sweetness, powderiness and some spice! Created a masterpiece and then discontinued it a couple of years later.. I would be forever devastated that I didn’t secure a second bottle so that I can enjoy, even sparingly, this divine smell for the rest of my life! I found something similar from Tiziana Terenzi, Aphrodite, and it’s built in the same style but it’s obviously a different scent. Please bring this (and Gucci by Gucci EDP) back, Gucci!

Well there must be some deep existential reason that I fall in love with fragrances that are discontinued. Yes, I’ll love this till it’s all gone!! Gucci Guilty Intense is like a warm snuggly dance party on a frosty night that combines the rave music in one room with the lullaby and sleeping baby in another. Somehow this works and everyone is happy. It’s lovely. Part of the scent profile is sensual and grown up, and part of it is like a calming cloud. Those purpley flowers are heavenly and heartwarming. It’s not my job to know how it works, but I’m happy I get to enjoy the ride. 3 sprays of this and I’m set for the day.. I think it compliments all seasons but sticky summer. Seems universally likeable. The amber and patchouli base are quite warm, and I love it for that quality.

This is one of the perfumes I've had in my collection the longest. It starts somewhat peppery and then becomes more powdery, with a hint of lilac (which I absolutely adore), resting on a base of amber and patchouli. Beyond the notes, this perfume holds a lot of memories for me - I started wearing it in university and it takes me back to the simplicity of those days. I stopped wearing it after I graduated, or when I started working in offices and moved to Chloe/Coco Mademoiselle, but I still kept the bottle - hidden away and untouched, but still good after so many years. I pulled it out today and it put a smile on my face. Would I re-buy this if I can find it? I don't know - but I will keep the bottle I have for as long as I can, just because it makes me happy.

If anyone, who still owns a bottle of this gorgeous perfume, and has access to try from Estée Lauder’s Luxury Collection a scent called Radiant Mirage, can you please tell how similar these two perfumes actually are?!? Because I have purchased recently a bottle of Radiant Mirage and every time I smell myself I am reminded instantly of Gucci Guilty Intense. I haven’t smelled Gucci Guilty Intense in a few years, since I have finished my bottle so I don’t have it fresh in my nostrils. And like anything good, it’s been discontinued for some unknown reasons... But Radiant Mirage smells like I remember GGI to smell like! I am getting things totally wrong here? Please help me get some clarity if you can. Much appreciated!

The intense is a grown up version of the original Guilty. While its mother scent is more playful, floral and bubblegum violet, the Intense is deeper, with peppery amber balancing the sweet citrus and romantic florals. It also has twice the longevity and sillage, for which the original fragrance cant match. While the notes may seem overwhelming, it’s balanced so beautifully. It’s luxurious but doesn’t completely lose its playful side, and though it isn’t my favorite from Gucci, it’s a clear and well-earned runner up. It is my go-to for weekend getaways, late dinners/cocktail parties etc but I wouldn’t necessarily hesitate to wear it (one light spray) as a day scent.

I had them all EDT, Diamond and intense. Right now I have intense just because when I put it on-I want to smell it. It is a long lasting and I think this perfume is the one! Not just sexy. Seductive! It is definitely for a romantic dinner. I wouldn't waste it for everybody to smell, I would save it for dinner with the one! Absolutely worth spraying on your hair if you wear it down. It is a very warm, flowery amber. After about 2 hours it is sweet and spicy. I'm sure that is how James Bond's Girl smell like. Seductive, feminine, empowering. The scent of a real lady! I'd say it is my signature scent for years. But only my man knows it.

This is second Gucci that i have after Gucci edp. I had try the Guilty edt, but i think that is not enough for me so i blind buy this after i read nice review from fragrantica for this Guilty edp. I find it sweet from the first spray. After a while, the sweetness is gone than lilac note blended well with pink pepper. I can smell warm patchouli and amber at the base. A simple, modern yet sophisticated. It is not overwhelming, I mean this is moderate sillage, long lasting enough, office safe, day and night fragrance, easy to wear in any occasion. Nice bottle too. I love this. So why don't you try this? :)

It's a gorgeous, sexy, sultry, sweet scent for evening wear. There is lilac present but my skin is really amping up the amber and it's in charge here. A real shame because it's the lilac that really interests me. Pink pepper adds a little spice but not much. There is a good dose of vanillary heliotrope. More violet might have made it less rich. If there was such a thing as lilac wine then I suspect it would smell a bit like this. It doesn't really develop that much. It gets a wee bit less sweet and more peppery. You start to pick out the patch in the background. Good longevity and sillage.

This was something very new for me to try I usually don't go for these smells but I have to admit I love this one!, the lilac and amber really stand out on me with the powdery almost musky type smell. It is a mysterious seductive perfume with plenty of depth in the dye down it just gets better and better sillage is excellent on me and so is longevity it lasts me all day or night. it Is a sophisticated sexy smell with a desire to want more in the dye down as it continues to evolve and wrap your senses in a sexy orgasmic mysterious heaven! You don't know whats coming next its wonderful!

This is quite sexy, in a quiet sensual way. One of my favorite fragrances. I am never without a bottle in my collection. I mostly get lilac, pepper and patchouli which work so well together. The amber and heliotrope come in during the dry down and turn this beauty to a spicy, warm, sensual fragrance. Very beautiful. Lasts about 8-9 hours which is ok with me. Sillage is moderate and perfect for work/crowded places IMO, but then again, I'm the kind of person that goes to work in Jungle l'Elephant LOL. I easily pull this off all year round as well.
