Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Gucci Rush 2 EDT
This discontinued darling is a bona-fide crowd-pleaser, adored for its unique freshness. Prepare to pay through the nose if you want to relive this early 00s icon - the clamour for its return highlights its enduring appeal.

Our Verdict - 163 Rush 2 EDP
Inspired by Gucci Rush 2. The freesia-narcissus-musk skeleton reads true to the original's lighter, greener flanker, but No. 163 fades to a plain clean musk well before Rush 2's soft powdery finish settles in.
