Strong as a berry
Well, I like the unsweet chypre fruit pretty much. The blackberry initially sets the tone, shining in full splendour without being sweet at all. I like it quite well, because I basically like berry notes, but many scents with berry notes are too sweet for me.
Guilty Absolute does it differently.
To be honest, I can hardly see the rose. When it is there, it is really only discreet and supporting the blackberry, not dominant.
I didn't expect the drydown at first: first it becomes woody, tart, very mature. "Monarde" as a note doesn't mean anything to me, so I can't make it out. Sometimes I have something "mossy" in my nose when sniffing, almost like oak moss. Smells fine, I got used to it quickly. Patchouli and amber don't stand out so much, but rather patchouli.
Interesting unsweet, mature, bitter, "cold" scent, which I can well imagine in autumn.
Definitely worth a test and a nice change to otherwise warm, sweet smells.
I don't think Guilty Absolute is like Lalique Amethyst at all.
The amethyst stays very flat on my skin, smells all the time only of sour berries and really does not develop at all.
I find the Gucci much more successful and interesting.

"Well, that's nice." Wait a minute, isn't little sister of...?
I like rose in fragrances and I don't like too sweet (!) berry notes either.
"Coach - Eau de Parfum" has quite some notes, I thought when I looked up the notes. Could that be something for me?
Nope. Mega boring "fruity-floral" fragrance, which we have all smelled like this or something similar. The beginning is definitely dominated by the noisy, overripe raspberry. The pear does the rest.
From time to time, the rose makes a soft voice, but gets a waddle from the raspberry over and over again. Does anyone have an inferiority complex?
The other flowers don't even dare. Even the base notes don't feel like going to kindergarten and don't show up on my skin.
The shelf life is ok, but too short for an eau de parfum (3-4 hours). The Sillage is more... well... let's not talk about it.
At the end of the day I wonder whether I am wearing "Coach" or some strawberry-raspberry bodyspray from the drugstore on my skin. It's the same thing.
Nah, the world doesn't need the scent. Save your money.
What am I glad that it was only a sample;)
