Guess Guess 1981 Indigo for Women is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018. Guess 1981 Indigo for Women opens with Sea Water, Lilac, and Fig, settles into a heart of Iris, Lotus, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Wine Grape, Red Wine, Cedar, and Vetiver. Guess's Guess 1981 Indigo for Women carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Guess 1981 Indigo is a bit of a mixed bag; a unique, affordable scent that's divisive depending on how the wine note plays out. Some find it a perfect summer escape, others are stuck in a boozy headache. Sample before you commit, because this could be your next blind-buy love or your worst anosmic nightmare.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Its generally soft projection and fresh yet slightly boozy character make it perfect for casual wear, often described as a 'white t-shirt fragrance.' While some find it office-appropriate due to its intimacy, the wine note might be too prominent for formal settings. Its light, refreshing quality makes it suitable for warmer weather, even active casual moments.

About

Imagine a cool evening breeze off the Mediterranean, carrying the subtle salinity of sea air. Lilac and narcissus bloom softly, intertwined with the green, slightly powdery hint of iris. A surprising note of red wine and ripe fig emerges, adding an intriguing boozy sweetness that lingers into a woody drydown of cedar and earthy vetiver. It's a complex, elegant dance between fresh and rich.
