Gucci Guilty Black - Love at First Smell
During this time of the year, no matter what the weather app shows on your phone, weather might be unpredictable. One day you might have the hottest day of the year and the next day pouring rain. There's nothing better than changing the perfume and makeup to get into this transitional season mood. Maybe something like Gucci Guilty Black might get you into autumn mood.
Can perfumes affect your mood? According to a study, perfumes can change your mood. That's why you might want to consider changing your perfume once in awhile. Some fragrances can be stress relieving too, how great is it?
I love changing my perfume or even layering them to get my own scent . When it is hot, I go for fresh ones like DKNY and when it is cold then orientals like Hugo Boss Orange is my pick. Gucci Guilty Black fits into oriental category, oriental floral. I got this perfume when it was first released back in 2013 and repurchased it again, it is one of the perfumes that has a special place in my heart.
Once you spray it, you might get sweet powdery smell, however, after a minute or two you the smell changes to something fruity like hint of peach. After it finally sets on your skin, you can smell the mixture of raspberries and amber. Gucci Guilty Black has the perfect balance of sweet fruity and floral with the depth of base notes. Heartwarming smell is a plus, something you might want when it is gloomy outside and you want something to cheer you up.
This is more evening or cold day perfume, you wouldn't want to spray it when it is so hot outside! It has long durability and power, even after wearing it for 4-5 hours, I can still smell the base notes but not as strong. Packaging is beautiful, it has the same packaging of Gucci Guilty, but in different colour. Red and black makes it a little mysterious, doesn't it?
If you like oriental and woody scents, you might want to check this out. It has the perfect balance of the sweetness and oriental notes.
What's your favourite perfume at the moment? Have you tried Gucci Guilty Black or Gucci Guilty before?

Unpredictable UK weather... I hate it :) x
I love great perfumes!! Each scent we wear is so important as it can totally influence our mood & bring back memories. Love the sound of Gucci Guilty hon. And the weather... oh dear, it's been all over the place, hasn't it? :) Hope you enjoy your bank holiday weekend, sweetie!! Can't wait to organise a little catch-up with you guys!! xox Nadia www.mielandmint.com
Seriously it is impossible to rely on the weather, one day hot and the next day pouring rain :) I hope you had a great weekend and have a lovely week ahead x
Guilty Black sounds like a great perfume - I love it when the scent unfolds and changes in time, and when you can actually feel (well, smell) the difference! I would love the hints of peach and raspberry! I have only ever tried Overdose by Gucci, and it smells great, do you know the scent? :) Julia x www.juliaspeaksbeauty.blogspot.fr
I haven't heard that perfume before, I will make sure to check it out when I'm in the store :) x
I definitely agree with you about perfumes being able to impact your mood - I find feminine scents can make me feel so much calmer! The packaging of this scent is gorgeous and yes, 100% with you about the red/black combo being kind of mysterious haha :) Gabrielle | <a href="http://aglassofice.com" rel="nofollow">A Glass Of Ice </a>x
Whenever I feel like treating I need extra kick, then I lean towards sexier scents. They are definitely mood changer :) x
I use DKNY too and love it! The Gucci Guilty sounds like my taste as well. Definitely going to check it out on my next mall visit. xx Yasmin http://banglesandbungalows.com
DKNY and Gucci perfumes are my favourites! x
This perfume sounds absolutely divine. I'm in the market for a new one...like you said, they really can impact your mood and I'm not liking what my current go to is evoking. This sounds like it might be a fabulous replacement. I'll definitely check it out!
Guilty is a perfect a&w perfume, it has the warm notes and the perfect level of spiciness. Definitely give it a sniff!
