The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2015 and crafted by perfumer Jacques Huclier, Gucci Guilty Eau Pour Homme is an intriguing blend of fresh citrus notes and a musky base. The fragrance opens with lemon and bergamot, creating a bright and invigorating first impression. This freshness is then balanced by the powdery and floral heart notes of orris and orange blossom, which add a subtle sweetness. As it settles into its woody and patchouli base, Gucci Guilty Eau Pour Homme transforms into an intimate and warm presence.
One or two sprays are sufficient as the citrus opening is quite potent. The musky base notes take some time to develop fully, so it's best applied an hour before you need it to reach its full depth.
