A freebie I received a little while ago, the Gucci Guilty Absolute pour Homme is a pretty decent masculine scent for winter use.

To my nose it’s a somewhat fruity scent, with a deep base note of cedar and patchouli, with  lavender, lemon and orange flower on top. Long lasting, distinct yet neutral, with a complex simplicity…. yeah, pretend that last bit made sense. You can put it on and forget about it, or put it on and spend a few hours untangling it… works just as well both ways.

It’s also approved by the Better Half, which is always a good thing. It may well be a little on the heavy side for summer, but it suits winter just fine.
