Perfumes Zag Zodiak 084 Guilty is an Eau de Parfum. 084 Guilty opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Geranium, Lilac, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Perfumes Zag Zodiak's 084 Guilty carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Captures Guilty's pink-pepper-to-patchouli arc reasonably well, though the floral heart reads simpler and the patchouli-amber base less refined than the original.

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.

About

084 GU follows Gucci Guilty's structure closely, opening with pink pepper and mandarin before a lilac-peach-jasmine heart and a patchouli-amber-musk base, mirroring the bold, contemporary femininity the original became known for on release. Guilty built its identity on that confident pink pepper opening giving way to a soft, slightly fruity floral heart and a warm patchouli-vanilla base, and this version keeps that same overall shape recognisable throughout the wear. The floral heart here leans a little flatter and less distinct than the original's more layered lilac-geranium combination, and the patchouli-amber base misses some of the smoother, more polished finish the real Guilty carries. Overall it lands as a fair, wearable take on a genuinely popular mainstream scent, just without the extra sheen that comes from Gucci's more refined patchouli treatment.
