Pros & Cons
- ✅ Zara is becoming one of my favorite cheapie houses. Their bottles look great, and in the past year and a half or so they have really taken strides towards building a much better reputation for themselves in the world of fragrance. This is an addition to the collection of reasons as to why I'm so optimistic for the brand. Not a bomb of a fragrance, but still lasts an acceptable amount of time on skin. Smells incredibly similar to Guilty Elixir, but just lacking some quality. Don't see a ton of resemblance to Reflection Man either. Great scent overall. A powdery, spicy, clean take on vanilla. Well worth more than the price tag of $27.99US (or $19.99 in the combo pack with 02).
- ✅ Super cheap and quality alternative for gucci guilty elixir.I have them both(gucci guilty elixir as tester) i can’t even tell the difference side by side. Last long and for this price and amazing fragrance.
- ✅ This is the more affordable version of Gucci Guilty Elixir, but there’s a reason it’s cheaper. It’s a well-packaged and nicely blended perfume, but it lacks the “wow” factor that Gucci has. This version leans more towards being a men’s fragrance, whereas the original has a touch of femininity. It’s a great alternative, and I believe it would be hard for someone passing by to realize it’s Zara’s replica. 10/10
- ✅ Smells very similar to gucci guilty elixir. Projection is decent.
- ✅ This is the closest thing to Gucci Guilty Elixer. It has a barbershop vibe but slightly lacks white florals. They are there but its very hard to tell. I can definitely see the resemblance to Reflection Man or the OG JPG. This isn't perfectly balanced without a stronger floral accord but it is very high quality. Besides that, I'd say if you wear this in summer, spring, or office, go easy on the number of sprays. This stuff is beast mode and I'm not exaggerating,a friend sprayed a bunch of perfumes on him and I could only smell this from very far away additionally it stays on clothes for over 24 hours. If I were to give it a rating I'd say its 95% close to Gucci Guilty Elixer with that 5% being reduced florals. My first Zara Perfume that I would recommend to someone but not blind buy worthy as it can be too strong and can come off as a touch more synthetic than Guilty Elixer.
- ❌ It gave me a headache, its not my kind of parfume, it doesn't smell that good in my oppinion Last 8 hours on my skin Scent: 6/10
- ❌ An absolute nuke of a fragrance that only seems to serve the purpose of assailing one's sense of smell with an all-encompassing, cloying vanilla accord.
- ❌ An orange blossom bomb with dark ambers and woody/leathery nuances. The dark woodiness is somewhat reminiscent of bentley intense for men IMO. It's more similar to elixir absolu than elixir IMO. Surprisingly good performance. 2 hours of moderate projection.
- ❌ Smells exactly like the cleaning solution I used whilst I worked in McDonalds. Specifically the bathroom cleaner (pink bottle). Gave me PTSD to my fast food worker days
