Valentine's Day for Him and Her

I better take another look at the packaging. Yes, indeed. "pour Homme" is written there. However, Guilty Love Edition pour Homme Eau de Parfum is so unisex, it almost leans towards the feminine, that one can hardly believe their eyes, or rather their nose.

Upon spraying, the fragrance starts with a synthetic, indefinable freshness (could that be juniper? Please...), but quickly becomes sweet and, above all, incredibly floral-creamy. The orange blossom is absolutely at the center here, supported in the first hour by a slightly sharp fresh note (and at this point still somewhat related to the Guilty pour Homme Eau de Toilette DNA), but over time it becomes tamer and more affectionate. A super cuddly, friendly scent.
However, so much amiability is also relatively unsexy. So it's not a fragrance for a first date, but one for a solid partnership and certainly ideal for a cozy evening for two in spring or summer. But it also suits gatherings with friends and (innocent) parties.
Well-made floral fragrances that can also be worn by men have always captivated me. I love Sunshine Man and "Fleur du Mâle | Jean Paul Gaultier," and Guilty Love Edition pour Homme Eau de Parfum reminds me a bit of the latter, although even softer, less masculine, and even less bitter.

The floral scent projects well for 2 hours and then fades, but lasts almost 9 hours. Quite decent. And long enough to fill a Valentine's afternoon. Oh, what a pity that Valentine's Day is already over this year. Such a perfectly fitting fragrance for it.

Nice description - but I would prefer the others mentioned.

Yeah, I think this one is (a bit) better too. But both have already been discontinued. And since this one is a limited edition, it will probably be gone soon as well. 🥲

I would really love for the gentlemen to get more floral scents, and for us ladies to have a bit of variety from the endless floral sweetness.

Absolutely! I'm actually quite disappointed with women's fragrances in the designer sector. It seems like there are really only floral and fruity options (exceptions prove the rule), and I'm getting tired of the ever-present jasmine. I've only found real variety in the niche market.
For us men, it's much easier with designers. From fresh to sweet, spicy, woody, leathery, smoky, earthy, aquatic, animalic, green, and fougère, the range is so broad that you can really go wild.
