I had high hopes for the newest Gucci fragrance. I’m a huge fan of Gucci pour Homme, and the feminines, Envy (sparkling green notes), Rush (fruits on steroids) and Gucci by Gucci (dark and 80’s feeling). Gucci by Gucci pour Homme is a ridiculous name – I get that they are establishing the brand across male and female but it just seems a bit OTT. I really like the lid on the bottle. It gives me the same satisfaction as pulling the plug on a bath full of water.
The opening is sweet and green. Similar to dunhill Black, I find the top note very hard to describe other than ‘green’. It’s also the same as the topnote from Lacoste Elegance (but without the chocolate) and has a similarity to D&G The One. All under license to P&G…
The heart is the best part. It’s slight spicy, warm notes shine, and the bitter Violet leaf note is softer than in Narcisso Rodriguez for Men, and really very pleasant.
The base isn’t long lasting at all. Transparent woody notes, some light musk, and with the tiniest hint of “something” salty.

It’s perfectly ‘nice’ and well-behaved, not at all overpowering. Gucci by Gucci pour Homme is mild-mannered with poor longevity.
