If this is the type of patchouli used here that could explain the beautiful wood notes I'm smelling. This is a nice fragrance, easy to wear and a very comfortable smell, my only issue is the longevity.

On the plus side it features a lovely bottle design and feels like a premium product, it just doesn't deliver for me. What sets this fragrance apart is its perfect balance – it's neither too overpowering nor too subtle, making it suitable for various occasions.

Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme is more than just a fragrance; it's an olfactory journey that evolves beautifully on the skin. Conclusion: Honestly one of the best scents in my collection, if it wasn't for the terrible projection and Longevity. Over-spraying has little effect, this is meant to be as unimposing and sterile as possible for modern corporate cubicle consumption. The beautiful glass and magnetic cap, the subtle nuances of the lettering and minimalist design emanate class and refinement of days gone by.

This isn't to say the smell is bad(it is perfect) I just cant pin point some notes that are supposed to be in here. The opening contains a charming burst of vivid aromatics so arousing, it just leaves you breath-taken! i like the manly character inside this juice, nothing like the freshy-teeny-sweety fragrances of today. The performance is terrible though, like others have said, after 30 minutes or so it becomes a skin scent.

I actually blind bought this fragrance (second hand as I think it's been discontinued) and I ended up loving it so much that I bought a backup! If you read this right now, go find yourself the bottle that stated Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme that don't have a vertical line on the box. It's not a green patchouli, as in Coco Mademoiselle, but has a greenery about it, possibly owing to the guava. The most prominent aromatic notes (violet and sweet tobacco) project with a bright and bold vivacity.

I think the explanation when that happens might be an early encounter with someone wearing it - possibly a very brief one . Gucci by Gucci is pleasant in theory, definitely unisex, and I would love to have it as my boss-woman signature. This one is way heavier, more mature, and suited for colder temperatures, whereas Believe is more refreshing and sweeter with the added clementine and better for warmer months. Gucci by Gucci, my respect and admiration, we all have plenty of reasons to criticize its performance, but few of us doubt the quality of its scent, its essence and its impact on perfumery. I can wear 4 sprays of J’adore Extrait De Parfum, and 8 sprays of Chanel N°5 Eau De Parfum without getting a headache.A great everyday office fragrance suited towards the colder season however the longevity of this fragrance very much let's it down, I will spray at 7:30am and it will be gone by the time I reach the office at 9am. To this day, there is no detectable change in the scent or its performance (the latter being meh to start with). Unfortunately, I have to agree with a good many people here that while Gucci By Gucci PH smells great, it has a synthetic quality about it that just doesn't feel right. I pray that someday a "parfum or intense" version will be released, the one that came out in 2015, "Gucci pour Homme" with the silver lined box, failed to repair the "defect" of the sillage.
