Gucci Flora Gorgeous Jasmine EDP 50ml

I got this product for free in exchange for a review so this is a Sponsored post in collaboration with influenster and Gucci.That being said, I get to keep it whether I say good things about it or not so these are my 100% honest and candid thoughts.Typically I'm not a fan of heavily floral scents. I'm more of a woodsy/spicy girl.Had this not been sent to me for free I legit would have just skipped over it and wouldn't have even tried seeing what it smelled like.But it WAS free so I figured it was worth giving a try and if I didn't like it I could give it away to someone else...Long story short, it made its way to my list of perfumes that I would wear every day.When I first sprayed it on I sniffed my wrist and thought in my head "oh.

OK. I smell like money!"About 5 minutes later my daughter came downstairs to give me a hug and said "mmm...what are you wearing? You smell rich!"Luxury perfumes are kind of my jam so I have other fragrances from high end designers but they do not hit like this hit.It smells like if you stepped into into a garden that had thousands of amazingly scented flowers and then the wind blew very lightly and all of the different scents hit your nose at once but it's not overpowering.There's also a hint of what I thought smelled like green tea but when I looked at the fragrance notes I'm pretty sure it was mandarin.For those of you who want the actual fragrance breakdown,It's in the classic floral fragrance family.Top note is Grandiflorum Jasmine.Middle note is Magnolia Accord.Base note is Mandarin Essence.After spraying it on, the fragrance lasted pretty much all day but the top and mid notes wore off by like hour 5, at which point it mostly just smelled like mandarin....still really good, but not what it initially smelled like.

I recently had the opportunity to try a sample of the Gucci Flora Gorgeous Jasmine and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. The scent is simply amazing- it’s sweet and alluring, without being overpowering. From the first spritz, I was captivated by the beautiful fragrance. I can feel the top notes of pear and red berries which are perfectly balance with heart notes of jasmine adding depth and richness to the scent that lingers on my skin for hours. What’s more, the perfume has excellent staying power. Even after a long day of wearing it, the fragrance still remains on my skin. I love how I catch the whiff of it throughout the day and it never fails to put me in a good mood. Another thing that impressed me about Gucci perfume is how it’s received by others.

My small children love the fragrance and enjoy being close to me when I wear it. In fact, it has become somewhat of a bonding experience of us. They love the sweet and attractive scent, and I love that we can sharing these moment together. After trying sample, I completed in love with the Gucci perfume and decided that I will buy it in full size. The sweet and alluring scent is just too irresistible to pass up, and the fact that it lasts for hours on end makes it the perfect addition to my fragrance collection. I cannot wait to get my hands on the full-size bottle and enjoy this beautiful fragrance for a long time to come.

A feminine blast of blissful nostalgia

When I was seven years old, I got a random, generic doll whose clothing and function were unremarkable, but that smelled outrageously pleasant. I just turned 40, and I've been trying to track this scent down ever since. With the advent of Google, it's allowed me to psycho-obessively attempt to research what the scent could have been. Years of relentless search to replicate has proven fruitless, and a weird olfactory injury plus a recent covid infection had rendered my search at a standstill, thinking the scent was just a distant memory destined to live only in my head. Until this past weekend, when the color of the bottle and twist on the newer Gucci Flora Gardenia made me curious to try it out and when I tell you I was INSTANTLY TRANSPORTED.

This bottle smells like purity and delight. Like intrigue and whimsy. Like superiority and optimism. I cried tears of joy at the release of a decades-long search for the perfect childhood dream scent.

Captivating Masterpiece

I love Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia! It is a captivating masterpiece that has quickly become my favorite perfume and I can't get enough of it. It is perfect for me and I highly recommend it to anyone of any age who is looking for a gentle, warm, unique and special floral-oriental perfume.This perfume is supremely balanced, well blended and full of depth and complexity. I detect each of the listed notes in a gorgeous harmony but with a twist that makes it stand out unlike any other fragrance. It is at once soulful, innocent, captivating, sexy, delicate, natural and gently bold. It is not just one thing and it is not defined by any conventions. It is magical and mystical.For me this perfume projects between 4-5 hours. During this time, the perfume exudes a capivating ... MoreI love Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia!

It has lovely sillage that lingers in a unique way. The base notes then hold it as a skin scent for an additional 5 hours or more.The flora artwork, the warm pink porcelain bottle, the golden cap, the spray atomiser, the description on the bottle and the matching box: this is exquisitely packaged and absolutely stands out as an ode to the wonder and beauty of nature.Thank you to Gucci for this beautiful creation! Thank you Woolworths for the birthday voucher and woman's day discount. I am full of gratitude an I feel like it is a daily gift to use this perfume. Thank you for the magical, mystical, mesmerising masterpiece that is Gorgeous Gardenia!

Come for the marketing, stay for the sweet smell

I bought the fragrance sampler that came out during the VIB sale and liked a couple of them, but this one was my vibe.First of all, the marketing with the regal poodle, the fluffy kitty-cat, and Miley Cyrus being adorable...it's everything.The bottle is beautiful and feels heavy and of high quality (it better be, it's Gucci).But what really got me is the fragrance itself. I love fruity florals, and this is a beautiful one. It's a crowd pleasing scent that you could wear to the office during the day, but also on a date at night. My husband loves it.I've seen some influencers and reviewers comparing it to Viva La Juicy, which I loved in my 20's, so I can understand where that comes from. However, this is a more mature fruity floral.

However, this is a more mature fruity floral. Not mature in a smells-like-old-ladies-in-church way, but mature in an I'm-35+-now-and-don't-want-the-same-perfume-I-wore-in-college way. I think this is slightly less sweet with more of a floral bite.The one thing I don't like is it does not have good staying power. You have to use a lot or reapply to get it to stick around, and it's not inexpensive.In short, this is my signature fragrance of spring/early summer 2022.

Great at First, Dislike How the Smell Evolved

I was so pleased to get it as a gift from Team BIC as it was on my wishlist.It initially has a floral and musky/earthy smell. It lasted for more than 10 hours on clothing. After 8-9 hours, one cannot smell it from afar. But it lasted for up to 12 hours on clothing (at the last 3-4 hours you have to bring up the clothing to your nose to detect the smell).After a while, the smell changes. According to another person who wore this perfume, the smell shifted to a more floral with a hint of citrus. For me, after 5-6 hours the smell reminded me of the smell of old furniture/suitcases that had perfume on years ago or a vintage furniture store...like a years-old perfume mixed with aged leather. The other wearer of this perfume and I are not fans of the second smell and ... MoreI was so pleased to get it as a gift from Team BIC as it was on my wishlist.It initially has a floral and musky/earthy smell.

The other wearer of this perfume and I are not fans of the second smell and we felt like the second smell was stuffy. We like the first smell a lot. I have been wearing this perfume when I am not feeling uneasy/anxious as the second smell slightly enhances any uneasiness/anxiety I have. Lovely packaging. Greatly appreciate the gift.

LOVE jasmine perfumes, this one missed the mark

I’m always on the hunt for the most beautiful Jasmine perfume, so I was really excited to try this brand new Gucci one!PROS:- Beautiful floral scent!- When you spray it on, the initial hit of Jasmine is simply divine!- Smells very clean and sophisticated (gives me a very “oh I’m just strolling down the Upper East Side to Bergdorf’s rn” aka Adult Gossip Girl in the summer vibes)CONS:- Once it settled into my skin and warmed up, the jasmine scent was almost completely gone. The middle notes of Magnolia were much more present making it much warmer and much heavier of a scent- The scent lasted only a few hours before it was gone (y’all— I even tried to make it last longer by spraying it on top of lotion— it did not work)3 out of 5 stars. I wanted this to be my ... MoreI’m always on the hunt for the most beautiful Jasmine perfume, so I was really excited to try this brand new Gucci one!PROS:- Beautiful floral scent!- When you spray it on, the initial hit of Jasmine is simply divine!- Smells very clean and sophisticated (gives me a very “oh I’m just strolling down the Upper East Side to Bergdorf’s rn” aka Adult Gossip Girl in the summer vibes)CONS:- Once it settled into my skin and warmed up, the jasmine scent was almost completely gone.

I wanted this to be my new signature scent so badly, but the dry down scent plus the fleeting staying power has me saving my money for a more long lasting Jasmine perfume. It really felt more like a heavy eau de toilette than a perfume. Lastly, the packaging is exactly the same as their Gardenia perfume. Cute, but nothing luxe or ground breaking about it. For the price point, the value isn’t there.

Mild yet great smelling perfume

I received this product from influenster for free in exchange for my honest review about this product. If you are a friend of mine, then one will know how much I love perfumes. I am a big perfumeoholic. I have more than 40 perfumes from different brands but never owned any Gucci Perfume. I personally like more fresh scents than floral scents but when I first smelled this perfume, I fell in love immediately. I was on a hunt to find a perfect jasmine perfume, when I got to know I was receiving the brand-new Gucci Flora Gorgeous Jasmine perfume I was excited. The perfume has beautiful floral scent. When you spray it on at first you smell the jasmine immediately. But as the time goes on the scent started disappearing on me.

When you spray it on at first you smell the jasmine immediately. But as the time goes on the scent started disappearing on me. Again, every individual produces different chemicals hence a perfume that might smell good on my skin might not be same on someone else’s skin. When I tested this perfume the city where I live it was very hot so when I was out and about walking in the sun and sweating, I noticed that the perfume did not last very long on my body. If you are in the market for a perfume that’s not very strong and doesn’t last very long on you then this is the perfume for you. Since I received a sample product of 0.005Oz I cannot comment much on the products packaging or the bottle. From the pictures on their website the full-size bottle does look beautiful and colorful.

Not your ordinary jasmine perfume

I was both interested in and wary of Gucci Gorgeous Jasmine when I first heard about its release. I've had good experiences with the last couple of Gucci fragrances I've tried, but for me, white floral perfumes can be heady and overwhelming, and can bring on a headache. I tested out the perfume in store a couple of times before purchasing the 1 oz bottle, and am sharing my honest and authentic opinion as a Sephora Beauty Insider Community Ambassador based on my experience with Gucci Gorgeous Jasmine.This is not your ordinary white floral fragrance. The more citrusy and green opening shifts after about 20 minutes to a soft, airy and fresh jasmine. The white floral fragrance is discreet and lingers beautifully on the skin - the jasmine is there but it doesn't scream ... MoreI was both interested in and wary of Gucci Gorgeous Jasmine when I first heard about its release.

The more citrusy and green opening shifts after about 20 minutes to a soft, airy and fresh jasmine. The white floral fragrance is discreet and lingers beautifully on the skin - the jasmine is there but it doesn't scream its presence - it's more of a soft, airy whisper. Dry down is very pretty - light and subtly sweet. Gucci Gorgeous Jasmine lasts for about 4-5 hours, staying close to the skin for the most part, but there are occasions throughout the day when you'll catch a touch of the fragrance gently wafting in the air. This is a lovely white floral fragrance suitable for every day wear on its own or layered with another fragrance. Highly recommend if you're looking for a more understated jasmine perfume.

not worth it

I received this product in exchange for my honest review and instantly had to try it out. Personally, I am not too into floral scents because I think they can smell overly grandma-like (no offense to all the older ladies lol). However, I wouldn’t say this perfume smells like that. Oddly, it reminds me of a soap (my mom thinks air freshener lol).I wouldn’t say it smells bad per se but it’s definitely a strong, floral soapy scent so if that’s your vibe you probably would like this. For the price point, I think there’s better options for you. Personally I would never repurchase this myself because it’s not a fragrance I’d wear and it’s pretty expensive.The staying power on the skin is pretty good, it fades but not crazily on me. For the most part tho, scents do ... MoreI received this product in exchange for my honest review and instantly had to try it out.

For the most part tho, scents do stick to me. I think this perfume might be nice to layer as well but it smells so strongly of floral soap you’d have to pair it with a very specific fragrance.I think it’s just okay (2.5 stars) and probably not worth the price point, even if you enjoy smelling like a hand soap.
