Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Guilty Absolute EDP
Gucci Guilty Absolute Eau de Parfum is a lavish, grown-up gourmand that fuses almond, vanilla and rum over a plush amber base. Not for the shy, it delivers potent warmth and sophistication with impressive presence and lasting power.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Absolute Pour Homme EDP
If you're after a properly grown-up, unapologetically masculine scent, this could be your new signature. It's a dark horse that punches above its weight.

Season and Occasion Fit

Guilty Absolute

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Its rich, spicy vanilla and almond warmth thrive in cooler weather, making it perfect for fall and winter. The bold sweetness can feel cloying in the heat but is invigorating in crisp air, while spring evenings suit its opulent, deep character.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With strong projection and a seductive, gourmand profile, it's best for dates or formal evening settings. Its intensity can overwhelm in close quarters like the office or for sporty activities, but it's an excellent choice for impactful presence.

Absolute Pour Homme

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This scent's dominant woody and leather accords, alongside its generally strong character, make it a definite win for evening dates and formal events. It might be a little much for a crowded office, but could work for casual wear if applied sparingly.
