Roselfi

I smelled Cloud for the first time on a friend who was an absolute Ariana Grande fan and had enthusiastically bought the fragrance after it came out.
Well, which good friend breaks her friend's heart and tells her that the fragrance is not nice at all? Not me, as honest as I am with fragrances. But I liked Cloud in any case not.
I found this synthetic, shrill cotton candy cloud water with the even more synthetic musk-coconut blend (new tongue twister :D) unbearable, especially in the winter time.

So the fragrance stuck for a few years pretty negative in my memories.

Until the other day I stood at the train station on a hot, stifling summer day and totally exhausted waiting for the train. In the heat it was impossible to wear the mask outside. That's why I had it pulled down until the train came. It suddenly blew sweet, almost masculine, cool musk notes over. A synthetic fragrance, but somehow totally pleasant and attractive in the stifling heat.

Also in the train wafted over again and again this fragrance. Me sat a middle-aged couple, young, bright and athletically dressed, opposite.
Carries one of the two Cloud?
No, I thought, even if I have not tested the "original" of this dupe, one of the two must certainly wear BR 540, I thought to myself; they would never wear a fragrance like Cloud.

Just before I got off, I asked them both if they were wearing perfume, and if so, which one - and sure enough. The lady, with whom I was apparently at the same train stop and who I sat opposite on the train, wore Cloud.

Suddenly, the shrill teen fragrance had become an elegant, young -but not childish- unisex summer scent. Definitely has a recognition value, but is super dependent on the wearer, place, time, temperature and occasion from the effect and not for the skin of everyone/woman, as I find.

I find it amazing how you can get to know fragrances again and again.

The scent reminds me of yellow flowers in a meadow on warm, sunny summer days.

I think that the people who like fragrances of Marc Jacobs, Narciso Rodriguez, Chloe and Co. might find pleasure in this fragrance.
The grapefruit stands out here not super citrusy or fresh, but pastel, powdery, creamy, soft. I also smell a touch of honey out.
The bright, floral solar notes dominate along with the orange blossom. You have to like the latter. If you hate it, you are wrong here. Personally, I like it, as long as the fragrance is not too strong and / or sprayed directly under my nose.
The bottle is rounded, beautiful, bright, clear, and is somewhat heavy on the hand.

On a hot summer day, I do not recommend wearing Sunlight, no matter how beautiful sunny it may be outside. Because I have found that the fragrance is then stifling, even suffocating.

Back then, when I was at the beginning of my youth, my peers wrapped themselves in stuffy floral-sweet drugstore perfume clouds, I also knew only such fragrances. There was no talk of more expensive perfumes or brands like Gucci. My mother bought Gucci Guilty at that time actually for herself. As a result, I tested the perfume... and oh my god!!! It was like I could literally smell gold. I immediately fell in love with this fragrance and took it right into my possession. Guilty was then my first, real perfume. After that, it was first over with stuffy floral-sweet drugstore perfumes ^^^^

I associate the fragrance with cooler, clear starry nights in late summer-autumn, when you go out and are dressed fancier. But actually Guilty is wearable at any time of the year and also during the day.
How to feel when you wear the fragrance?
Not like an ordinary woman from the row; but also not like a little princess in the spotlight - but like a real queen. A queen who is quite low-key (because you perceive the fragrance rather subconsciously and close to the skin),
rather quiet and reserved with her elegant nature is (because of the weak H+S) and mischievous smile with a seductive, almost enchanting aura has.

Gucci Guilty is simply a fragrance that exudes a "golden" charm. Without vanilla, without spice, without gourmand, without stuffy sweetness something. To smell out and describe the fragrance notes themselves is relatively difficult; I would vaguely guess floral-synthetic-soapy-dry-woody. The floral fine lilac note rather proves the "Guilty" wrong. So as seductive and guilty the low-key Queen may seem at first, so innocent it is again :)
The only quirk in the perfume is the durability + sillage.

Guilty was my first love in the perfume world, has pleased everyone when I wore it, as this is not a fragrance that you can not like (at least on others) and he also remains my all-time favorite.
