The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024, Guilty Crush by The House of Oud is a unisex fragrance created by perfumer Cristian Calabro. This composition opens with wild strawberry and black cherry, blending into the champagne-like sparkle of its heart notes — rose, jasmine, and lipstick. It settles into a warm base of musk, vanilla, benzoin, and cedarwood, creating an overall effect that is both sweetly seductive and powdery comfortable.
Apply Guilty Crush in light layers — the wild strawberry and black cherry top notes are bright but fleeting. The musky base notes develop gradually over time, so give it a few minutes to fully bloom on your skin before layering again if needed.
