Gucci Guilty Absolute: Dry, Naturalistic and Mossy

I knew that Gucci Guilty Absolute will be either a hit or miss for me. On one hand, I love my berries in fragrances, plus Gucci Guilty Absolute was recommended by a fellow perfume enthusiast Sandra Solomon. On the other hand, I am not huge on Gucci Guilty in general – it is too floral for me, and I was also afraid of the woody part of the scent. It is supposed to be quite a tenacious earthy odour.

After the first spray, my worries are officially confirmed. Once you get past a beautiful juicy blackberry, you are doomed to the downward spiral into deep aromatic woods. It is rich and heavy, masculine at points. Definitely for fall and winter. Do not expect airy blackberry dancing with dew drops and green leaves. This is a dark forest, has its charms but is not for everybody.

I recognise it is a good scent – powerful plus unique but lacks femininity and the lightness of being.
