A rush decision to do all my shopping for birthdays last Tuesday led me into Bodycare in Altrincham. Behind the counter they have a vast array of aftershaves and fragrances for both male and females. Me being me I find this very dangerous as I always end up making impulse purchases. Last Tuesday was no exception.
Instead of making the standard purchases I opted to buy three new fragrances that I had never heard of, nor smelt basically on the word of the woman serving behind the counter. The three purchases were Diesel Zero Plus, Gucci Rush (White) and Gucci Rush (Red). Today I’ll be giving my opinion on Gucci Rush (White). A 75ml bottle (if you can call it a bottle) cost £25.99. Although this is fairly cheap, you’ll only find it cheaper if you buy online (£16.50 for 50ml from www.fragrancedirect.co.uk).
I bought this because it came recommended, looked good on the shelf and I expected any fragrance linked with Gucci to have an air of quality. The first thing that struck me once I got home was the novel packaging and bottle design. Gucci Rush doesn’t come in a box; it sits in a plastic sleeve and has to be slid out when required.
The picture above shows the container in all its glory. It is made out of plastic! The front and back are covered in white plastic whilst the sides are clear making it easy to see how much of the clear fragrance remains in the bottle. Pumping a button located at the top of the container dispenses the fragrance. Due to the size and shape of the container it is very difficult to actually hold onto the container as you try to spray this on. The plastic is smooth so any sort of moisture on your hands and you’ll be picking this off the floor every couple of seconds. To apply you have to use two hands!
Marketed as a fragrance to invigorate the body and mind, Gucci Rush combines a blend of woody and musky notes to provide what should be a fresh smell sensation.
After finally managing to apply some of the aftershave, it immediately became evident that I had made a huge mistake in buying this. The first few sprays left me gagging in the bathroom. It was extremely strong and very overpowering. The first smell to hit me was that of fairy liquid, a rather sterile smell, but with woody hints.
This changed over time, but not for the better! It became more and more floral and spicy and eventually just floral. I could pick out lavender and faint hints of vanilla but it smelt more like a perfume for the ladies than an aftershave that would invigorate my body and mind!
At this point I will add that as the aftershave dried on my face it began to itch a little. I had just shaved so I expected some burn but my neck went red and blotchy! This subsided however after 10-15 minutes and I wasn’t bothered again.
The actual fragrance remained for 8-9 hours too long and it was well over 4 hours before the strong woody smell started to fade. I was not impressed at all.
Personally I won’t be wearing this again and I have now given it to my brother along with the Red version. I can’t picture an occasion where I would ever want to smell like this again and after wearing it for a night out the only mention it got was a “Ewwww, you smell like my gran” from my friend Danny.
As I said earlier, you think Gucci, you think quality. Not any longer…….
NOT RECOMMENDED, NOT EVER, NOT EVEN IF THEY ARE GIVING IT AWAY
So, in summary:
It isn’t cheap. The bottle looks tacky. The smell is vile. It’s very strong stuff. It irritates skin.
If you are sick enough to want to smell like a bouquet of flowers on a wet day, you might also be interested to know that Gucci also do a range of soaps, moisturiser and shaving foam scented with this *cough* delightful fragrance.
Gucci Rush (White) is being phased out over the few months and is to be replaced by Gucci Rush (Red). This version is slightly lighter, but still has the smell and feel when worn of an old wet sock.
Advantages: goes on and on all day Disadvantages: hard to grip bottle
...I was first introduced to Gucci by my brother who said that it was one of his favourite fragrances and so decided to try it for myself.
The bottle is cased in a square, white plastic covering and it has to be said that it's not one of the most easy to spray bottles that i have seen, still it looks good on your dressing table/bedside cabinet. With the name of Gucci on the bottle you know that you are getting a quality, long lasting fragrance that ... ...also goes very well with Gucci Rush for women (this comes in an even more ridiculous bottle that is impossible to spray) and the masculine and femenine smells bounce of each other quite nicely. The also look excellent side by side on your dressing table, you must have a female partner in order to do this though otherwise you'll get a few funny looks!
For a 75ml bottle at Boots this fragrance will cost you £29.00 but you can get it cheaper online ...

Advantages: Smells better than most Disadvantages: Not much for your money
...2 popular brands, Kourus and Gucci rush. In hindsight again I would like to think that the lady was on comission to sell thease brands.....and I fell for it like a fish to water.
Firstly kouros was an old brand tried and tested, popular, but I knew this already, the Gucci rush I hadn't heard of. This was rare I thought!, not many would have this one!
Having written off the Kouros, which was like the preverbial Xr3i of the aftershave world! (everyone ... ...a white box with the Gucci logo on it, it is reinforced and well boxed.
The bottle

On first view it looked like the aftershave was inside a plastic box, rendering thoughts of pass the parcel!, was this a little game by Gucci?, but on further investigation I saw that it was actually the bottle.
It has a white plastic front and back,and a clear plastic middle. You can see the small 75ml bottle inside. The top of the "case" has a square ...

Advantages: Crackin scent with excellent staying power! Disadvantages: Means I can't wear my fave Aqua di Gio!
I've had this now for about a month, and I have to say, it's creeping up on Aqua di Gio as my favourite! I've outlined all the positives, but kicked off with the minimal negatives! I've seen some reviews telling people to stay away from this because it has left a rash on them. What I would say is that different aftershaves can leave rashes on different people. I don't have sensitive skin, but I've found that anything from Dunhill has made my skin ... ...stop people from using this. All I would say is go ask for a sample, try it, and if there's no reaction, you'll be sold!!!
The other negative is the packaging. I have read the other reviews, and I see that packaging is a bit of a complaint. I have to say, I agree! Not so much that it looks cheap, but it's very impractical. It has a plastic pump action, which isn't the easiest to use, and worst of all, it plastic sleeve for it to slide in and out ...

Advantages: Smells fantastic Disadvantages: leaves a rash behind
Gucci Rush is a fragrance that has been around for a while now and has made its impact both as a womans and a mens fragrance. The unique and modern design of the bottles itself is not everybody's cup of tea, however it smells absolutely fantastic. My Rush has a very wooden, very timeless fragrance, it seems the whole bottle is filled with exotic sawdust.
There is however a downside to the product range: it leaves a rash behind (and you thought there ... ...response from other users of Gucci Rush about this matter.
After using it for a few weeks my skin has got used to it and the rashes have dissappeared.
Otherwise I can't complain about Gucci Rush for Men. The prices are falling because there are newer fragrances of Gucci on the market, which makes it a very good buy. You can pick up the After Shave for as little as £9.99 for 100ml and the Eau de Toilette sets you back about £17 for 50ml, if you ...

Quick review of Gucci Rush for Men
Great product for its low price in the fragrance market, long lasting mid and bass notes, very woody, very musky, very masculine. After a powerful hit of top notes (the Rush!) it settles down into a light refreshing scent but still retains its masculinity.
Of all the scents I use this one still gets people asking "what are you wearing"
No problems with skin but I do not have sensitive skin.
You could be mistaken for wearing something far more costly and classy than this really is.
Nice One. ...

Advantages: Cheap, cool bottle and packaging Disadvantages: Smells vile, lasts for ages, stuns females/males/animals within 50 yard radius
Today I?ll be writing about Diesel Zero Plus for Men, an aftershave I picked up on impulse when buying the ill fated GucciRush for Men a couple of weeks ago.
Why did I buy an aftershave I?d never heard of nor indeed smelt? Simple really:
1 Diesel is a pretty well known brand.
2 It was cheap.
3 The packaging was unique.
4 I?d never tried it before and was curious.
When I think of a Diesel product the first thing that springs to mind are jeans! Until I spotted it on the shelf in my local Bodycare I didn?t even know that Diesel had any fragrances on the market for men. Curiosity struck me and I bought a bottle for £7.99, yes that?s right, it was only £7.99 for a 50ml bottle. Alarm bells should have starting ringing but they didn?t?
Since buying my bottle I have seen this on sale in Boots and Rackhams and if you like it, don ...
Advantages: Long lasting, distinctive scent, it's from Gucci! Disadvantages: Can get quite sickly if worn too often
- a lighter, zingier version of the first version.
GucciRush for men, which I wouldn't bother even thinking about as it lets the range down (in my opinion!)
GucciRush Summer - also a lighter, summery (surprisingly enough!) version of the original, with an improved monogrammed casing.
The Price
~*~*~*~*
The RRP for a 50ml bottle of GucciRush is £38.00, but as always, shop around and you'll be able to grab a good bargain. The cheapest stockist I could find is PerfumePoint.co.uk, where you can pick up 30ml for £15.05, 50ml for £20.70 and 75ml for £27.49.
If you prefer high street shopping, Boots are selling a GucciRush gift set containing 30ml of GucciRush Eau De Toilette and 50ml of GucciRush Body lotion, packaged in a branded red Gucci box for £27.00 - a lovely Christmas present! The GucciRush 2 gift set is also available ...

Fragrance
I came across Gucci by Gucci on a trip to John Lewis where I was trying every perfume I could see! I sprayed a generous amount of the perfume onto my wrist and I could smell it before I put my wrist near my face! It was so overpowering it was very off putting, and I was out the store in a few seconds. It was a nice smell, but just much too overpowering. I got used to ...
