Best Smelling Gucci Guilty Cologne for Him

Gucci Guilty has become a really popular line of fragrances in the past decade or so. The company has released several flankers from the original cologne release and other variants over the years. The question that guys often have when sorting through all of these options is, which Guilty fragrance smells the best? Having tried and reviewed these scents, I have experienced their strengths and weaknesses, to determine the answer. So, below I will present to you the two best options from the line, as it kind of is a 1A and 1B situation.

What are the Best Smelling Gucci Guilty Fragrances?

The Best Overall

Gucci Eau de Toilette Spray for Men, Guilty Black Pour Homme, 1.6 Ounce– Guilty Black has the slight edge, in my opinion, as the best Gucci Guilty cologne. It doesn’t open with the same citrus top notes as the others, and instead has neroli and orange flower, to simulate that aroma but take it in a new direction.

This one is very well blended, with a green and fresh aroma, that includes lavender and spiced coriander. It shares enough of the original Guilty DNA, while being its own thing. This is also one with solid performance and can be worn late night, as a club scent. Guilty Black Review

A Close Second

Gucci Guilty Intense Eau De Toilette Spray for Men, 3 Ounce– It is a tough choice to put Guilty Intense at number two, because I really do like this stuff. It shares the same lemon note, as the original Guilty Pour Homme, but tones it down and amps up the lavender and amber notes.

There are additional floral notes and cedar wood, but Intense is a pretty linear fragrance, with the lemon and amber taking hold early. Intense has a solid sillage and can last for 7-8 hours, on my skin.

It is a very versatile fragrance, that can be worn year round, and feels more mature that its predecessor. It’s just a hair below, Gucci Guilty Black, but still an awesome fragrance. Guilty Intense Review

So, there you have it, my top two choices from the Gucci Guilty Pour Homme line. It is a really close call between the top two, but I think that they are clearly above the others in the series. If you’re looking at other Gucci colognes, here is my list of the best from the brand.

Best Men's Colognes

Best Men’s Colognes started back in 2013, as a way to share my learning experiences with different fragrances, as I dove head first into the hobby. Since then, I have written hundreds of reviews and other pages about perfumes and colognes.
