For Him
Guilty Pleasure

Gucci introduces a new member, Gucci Guilty Eau, to the Gucci Guilty fragrance line. Instead of following the tradition of sparkling, cool eau de toilettes, Guilty Eau Pour Homme adopts a touch of romance. While heady top notes consist of lemon and bergamot, at the heart of the composition are woody orris and orange blossom, which are laid on a contrasting base of patchouli and musk.

Scent and Sensuality

Boss The Scent by Hugo Boss seduces the senses with an original formula featuring a unique ingredient: the Maninka fruit from Africa. Reminiscent of passion fruit and rum, this aphrodisiac heart note is blended with lavender to leave a lasting, sensual trail. The intense leather base completes the fragrance with a magnetic masculinity. The collection also comes with a shower gel, after-shave balm and deodorant spray. Visit Fragrances Website
