Recently, the company "Gucci" presented a line of clothing and accessories Bamboo, and to consolidate the success, released a new fragrance called "Gucci Bamboo". This perfume is still very young, released in 2015, but it has already managed to distinguish itself and get its enthusiastic ratings.
What's in Gucci Bamboo? The perfume, reviews of which were left by both admirers and those who did not fall in love with him, has a rather interesting composition.
Where's the bamboo?
Perhaps, someone believes that the name voices the main component of the perfume. An no. Here, the element of the bamboo stem is captured in the design of the bottle, namely in the form of a cap, but the execution is so subtle that at first glance you can not notice this moment. This perfume will become a dressing table decoration, you just want to turn the bottle in your hands, touch all its sharp edges. The fact is that the perfume "Gucci Bamboo" is intended for backing vocals of the collection of the same name, which uses an imitation of the stem of this caneplants.
But the content of the bottle also does not contradict the main mood and associations. Yes, it would be naive to think that perfumers will simply make the smell of bamboo the key to the composition, and that's it. This would be predictable. On the other hand, "Gucci Bamboo" shouldn't completely go against the grain of the name, as it wouldn't make sense. So, what is the pyramid made of?
"Gucci Bamboo": composition description
Perfume belongs to the group of floral fragrances. The pyramid is rather unusual, in particular, in that the top note is only one: it is bergamot. In the heart, everything is more complicated: there is a royal lily along with orange blossom and ylag-ylang. The base is fixed with noble amber, vanilla and sandalwood.
Sound of fragrance
If you just read the composition of the perfume, you might think that they will be typical fresh, because the bergamot in the first notes should probably outshine the subsequent ones, but this does not happen. Of course, each girl has her own skin chemistry, but among the main audible notes, lily is in the lead. Then vanilla breaks through, and in some places ylang-ylang. Lily and vanilla - a combination, at first glance, a strange one, but the taste and color, as they say … Especially since the lily is not suffocating, although there are many of them. On the other hand, the smell is dense, intense, but this is not surprising: with such and such components…
The general impression of this fragrance is: coolness and nobility. It's all thanks to the white flowers at the heart of the fragrance.
Perfume "Gucci Bamboo" is well associated with expensively dressedstylish young women. This image represents Gal Gadot in the promo video.
Slight coolness and barely noticeable peppercorns are felt, but the main background for all this is floral tenderness. In short, lily lovers will be delighted, they can safely buy perfume even without a preliminary test.
This is a high-quality, not musky perfume, everything here is well-tailored and expensive.
Resilience
This quality is worthy of individual applause. The longevity of this perfume is simply amazing. And from prolonged contact with the body, the smell is revealed even more. The sillage is thin, unobtrusive, barely perceptible. In the fresh air it sounds very attractive, indoors it will also captivate with femininity. For those who were captivated by the smell, but not satisfied with the concentration (it seemed too strong), the Gucci Bamboo eau de toilette would be the best solution.
And for the sake of those who like to buy all the cosmetics of their favorite perfume line at once, they have released both a shower gel and a body lotion with the Gucci Bamboo scent. Then the smell will accompany you all day and all night.
Similar to other fragrances
When something new comes out in the world of perfumery, there will always be someone who will say: "And it must have been somewhere already!" Gucci Bamboo was no exception. The perfume, reviews about which are so ambiguous, seems to some to be an echo of something already sounded a few years ago.
Perhaps this is a rather controversial issue, but some"Gucci Bamboo" is reminiscent of Hugo Boss Femme in direction, sound and character, and to some, Armani's discontinued Idol. Someone else heard similarities with The One from Dolce & Gabbana, only the latter does not have a fruity theme, but Gucci Bamboo does. Others (and there are many of them) unanimously speak of olfactory analogies with Body Burberry for women. Therefore, if the above-mentioned perfume is already on the dressing table, then there is not much point in buying Gucci Bamboo, since they are really very similar.
"Gucci Bamboo" price
This is a luxury perfume, so it cannot be cheap in principle. Of course, if you get on some promotion, you can save money.
So how much is this new product - "Gucci Bamboo"? The price for a 30 ml bottle of perfume is 2,500 rubles, for 50 ml you need to pay 3,500 rubles, and 75 ml of "bamboo happiness" will cost 4,500 rubles. Yes, the prices cannot be called democratic, but how much money can you not pay for the pleasure of exuding the noble aroma of vanilla lilies?
Reviews from those who didn't like it
Some don't understand why so many praises are sung for Gucci Bamboo. Perfume, reviews of which are sometimes so enthusiastic, some customers call it simply mediocre, just one of many casual fragrances. Although, in truth, no one presents any justified shortcomings, everyone mainly focuses on excessivesimplicity, spinelessness, typicality and facelessness of spirits. Like, with such an aroma you will get lost in the crowd. They are even scolded for the fact that the Gucci house, when releasing this perfume, relied not on content, but on the form and promoted brand.
But that's pretty subjective, because not everyone wants to smell like Dior's Poison or Lancome's Miracle. Someone, on the contrary, wants to exude the smell of expensive, but at the same time not screaming perfume. Therefore, "Gucci Bamboo" fit many.
It is also worth noting that this fragrance is highly recommended to be tested on the wrist, as the blotter cannot convey the essence of the smell, and sometimes it gives out some kind of stale note.
Yes, this fragrance may not claim to be a new word in perfumery, but those who appreciated this creation from the house of Gucci, on the contrary, put pluses for the relative clarity and unambiguity of this smell.
The conclusion can be drawn as follows: "Gucci Bamboo" - a perfume, reviews of which are sometimes not entirely flattering, still managed to find its audience.
