Perfume of the Day: Gucci by Gucci Eau de Parfum
I love the equestrian-inspired bottle so for some reason I was expecting the scent to have leather notes. However, this is a “modern oriental” or floral-oriental with some spicy notes. There’s a bit too much going on for me, with the guava and pear notes, but the patchouli accord is nicely blended with the musk, so the drydown actually works better for me than the initial impression. The name is confusingly similar to another Gucci scent with much different characteristics. This one is Gucci by Gucci, that one is just Gucci. In short, if you like the new fragrance (with the gold-colored bit), you should definitely try the older Gucci Eau de Parfum. And then there is Gucci Eau de Parfum II, which is pink and less confusing. Starts at a reasonable $58/1oz at Sephora.
Gucci by Gucci is the signature fragrance for the modern day icon— a strong yet sensual woman driven by both her desire for achievement and her unmistakable feminine allure. The new Gucci fragrance falls into the Chypre floral scent family, with a top fruity citrus note and a woodsy base note. The fragrance emerges with an unexpected and exotic blend of guava and pear, bringing with it a uniqueness and modernity. The heart adds a rich, sensual femininity with the Tahitian Tiare flower bringing creaminess to an unconventional bouquet. The bottom consists of musky notes and honey that add sensuality and warmth to the strength of the patchouli.
