Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rush
Gucci Rush is a magnetic and unforgettable fragrance, bursting with creamy white florals and juicy peach atop a deep, spicy patchouli-vanilla base. It's an addictive, high-impact statement for the bold and the daring.

Our Verdict - Gem
This 80s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a punchy, complex chypre that divides opinions but commands attention. An acquired taste for some, a treasured gem for others, its intensity makes it unforgettable.
