Gucci Guilty Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Aurélien Guichard. Guilty Intense opens with Mandarin and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Violet, Heliotrope, and Lilac, and dries down to a base of Amber and Patchouli. Gucci's Guilty Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This 'Intense' version of Guilty delivers a much-needed punch the original lacked, though some might find the heavy lilac a bit much. It's a confident, sensual blend that's won over many, even if some found it too powdery or just 'okay'.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Gucci Guilty Intense opens with a bright, spicy kick of mandarin orange and pink pepper, quickly ushering in a lush heart of purple florals. Violet, heliotrope, and a dominant lilac create a powdery, sweet, and subtly intoxicating bouquet. The dry down is a warm embrace of amber and patchouli, adding depth and a touch of grounded sensuality to the floral sweetness.
