Fragrance Family: Earthy & Woody
Scent Type: Citrus & Woods
Key Notes: Lavender, Orange Flower, Cedarwood
Fragrance Description: Breaking the rules of traditional men’s fragrance-making, Gucci Guilty Eau de Toilette for men opens on sparkling Italian lemon while French lavender vibrates in the heart before falling into the deep notes of patchouli.
About the Bottle: Hedonistic and decadent, the scent opens with the piquant spice of pink pepper, a fragrance ingredient connected to intense flavor mixed with invigorating Italian lemon. At the heart, the nonconformist ideals of #ForeverGuilty coincide with nonconventional fragrance-making by using orange blossom absolute, a scent traditionally used in female fragrances and known throughout history as a symbol of romance and innocence. White floral with honey tones enriches the scent’s other heart notes, neroli and French lavender—the very flower the original playboy Casanova used to fragrance his love letters. Completing this modern expression of sensuality, mystery and intrigue are connected in patchouli, which develops with hints of leather, green, woodiness, and incense-like qualities. The dry-down is intensified with the masculine richness of cedarwood.
About the Fragrance: The generation that inspires Alessandro Michele is characterized by a celebrative anarchy. They don’t believe in conformity, submitting to labels or to gender rules, but rather, in breaking free from common social boundaries.
