Which Should You Buy?
A modern floral-musk classic that is effortlessly wearable, Gucci Guilty EDT blends lilac, peach, and white musk for a soft, sparkling, and subtly sexy signature. Ideal for daily wear and date nights alike.
No.040 follows Gucci Guilty's spicy-floral formula - mandarin and pink pepper over lilac, geranium and peach, finishing on patchouli and amber. It's a consistent, recognisable take according to buyers, though it runs a shade sweeter and less complex than the original's sharper pink-pepper bite.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The fresh floral and citrus opening makes Gucci Guilty Eau de Toilette especially suitable for spring, while its warm, musky base allows for pleasant wear in summer and fall. It can work in winter, but its lighter EDT structure makes it less suited for coldest days.
Occasions
With moderate projection and a balanced, inviting floral-musk character, this scent is perfect for dates and casual outings, and is refined enough for office wear. Its softness is less ideal for formal black-tie or sporty situations.
