Gucci guilty absolute changed my perception of perfume back in the day. Because of this fragrance I started to discover niche and indie brands. ❤❤❤

[@RamseytheRam]

I could totally see this perfume doing that to someone Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻

[@pranavshuklawho]

Glad to see Indian perfumers featured by the Rams, there's a lot of gems, including Prakhar and Divyam

[@RamseytheRam]

I am realizing this fact ... thanks for watching 👀

[@saabreplay7553]

Smelled like a bandaid and leather to me. Total love

[@rayeslami7911]

Thank you for the review. Happy to report that it has been rereleased in canada and available in stores.

[@RamseytheRam]

That is insane I guess it is being re-released I had no idea

[@oyilla]

spot on review, cheers

Thanks so much for watching & commenting 💪🐏

[@saabreplay7553]

Dude this is one of my absolute favs

[@RamseytheRam]

Absolutely agree for GG Absolute 🙂

[@user-vb3cx8hj8l]

Great video. I was surprised you didn’t mention Kilian Dark Lord. Considered by many to be a niche development of this by Alberto Morillas. Coming out in 2018. Dark Lord is very nice probably more ‘wearable’.

[@RamseytheRam]

Actually it's because I have never smelled Dark Lord...but I knew it was supposed to be comparable 🙏🙏🙏

[@houseadams4841]

I’ve worn GGA to the office a handful of times during the Fall and Winter months… Actually works very well… Great review as always.

[@RamseytheRam]

I agree not as intimidating as some folks make it out to be 💪🐏

Always great 🐏! There’s definitely some trampoline in there 😂 🍻👍

[@RamseytheRam]

Sometimes kids know best lol

[@Lee-ofar]

Nice review! I’ll have to get my nose on this again because last time I smelled it when it first came out I was into designer fragrances, and was intimidated by it.

[@RamseytheRam]

My guess is you will love it now 🔥

[@andreicutar9959]

A great scent, hard to believe it’s in the Gucci Guilty line. One of the first leather fragrances I loved, and I still love it. It’s still on the websites here in Romania, and for a good price. Every fragrance enthusiast should smell it at the beginning of their journey, or at some point. Cheers, Ramsey!

[@RamseytheRam]

💯% spot on 🙏🙏🙏

I love this shit, agree it's a top designer of the century 🫡🤌🏻 🐏🦆

Love love love this one. Smells like an elegant band aid

[@RamseytheRam]

Elegant bandaid smell 🤤🩹

[@joesmellsgood]

@@RamseytheRam in the most positive way possible. I think your description was spot on. So odd how something so seemingly medicinal could be so enticing to frag heads. Maybe we just like olfactory punishment like to imagine we're standing in the middle of a hospital

[@kavkazip]

Great stuff. Was surprised to see a bunch at my local drug mart a few weeks ago.

[@RamseytheRam]

Crazy they are still floating around for cheap 🥲

[@willie.sc3nts]

The few Gucci I love! Another one is the older formula of Intense Oud!

[@RamseytheRam]

I will review a few more Guccis coming up soon mate 🍻

[@brenlynch4811]

Cheers Rams, I gotta 90 ml couple years ago and yep right up my street,only about 8 months ago saw a bunch of them ,all different bottle sizes for cheapest prices I’ve seen on discount sites . It’s a mega store that sells chemists kinda stuff, I didn’t get a back up maybe a little trip today they might still have a few hanging around 🤞🤞. Great review man 🙏✌️👍

[@RamseytheRam]

Some folks are reporting its been re-released... i think it's probably just old stock getting cleared out 🙂

[@brenlynch4811]

@@RamseytheRam yep 👍 that’s more likely because it’s still only going to be loved and bought by the same people for the best part and ergo a fail yet again for the sales department ✌️

[@Grumpy1098]

Gucci Absolute - SOTD... At first my nose was too young to appreciate it.. thanks to your recommendations and lists I've built an appreciation for leather accords and animalistic notes. This stuff oozes masculinity I love it

[@RamseytheRam]

Yesssss I love it too 🙂 Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏

[@nm92xxx]

Amazing ! I was just reading a review about this fragrance. According to Fragrantica, it would suit me.

[@RamseytheRam]

Blind buy time!! Lol No the Ram never condones blind buys... do as I say not as I do 😂😂😂

[@nm92xxx]

@@RamseytheRam 😂 I've already tried Encre Noire but it felt random to me even if the smoky smell is unsual. Guilty Absolute seems to be close to Dark Lord by Kilian (same perfumer). If this one is ok to my nose, I'll buy one of Guilty Absolute.

[@JustinHight-py2sw]

I need to buy a few backups of Gucci Guilty Absolute. Its a masterpiece. They have it cheap at the place by my house. I love it.

[@RamseytheRam]

I still can't believe it's so cheap... I figured prices will skyrocket one day... it's probably just a matter of time 🤌🤌🤌

[@JustinHight-py2sw]

​​​​@@RamseytheRamyeah,I have been thinking that too. Just a matter of time. The reason ,at least my theory as to why it's still so cheap is because even though it's discontinued since no one but lovers of unique scents love it they haven't sold much. And it's such a mainstream designer they produced a lot of bottles so there is still so many of them at discounters. But now that you talked about it it will start to sell fast. Your channel may not have as many subs as Jeremy's or Ashton's but you still have thousands and since your followers tend to listen to only you and many things you like are limited In supply they get sold out or the price rises fast. With Adidas I knew Anooj had it for maybe a year or at least a few months before you mentioned it. I kept looking in on his site and it had not sold in a while I don't think because they had an option for quantity. Then when you got it it was sold out within days,or weeks or something. Plus,did you know that just a while before you mentioned it on eBay they had deals like two bottles the size you had,like 400 mil or something for 20$;. Yup,2 huge bottles of the Adidas cologne..not one cologne and one aftershave. 2 unopened massive bottles of the cologne for 20 bucks. They couldn't give that stuff away. I think vintage lovers didn't think they would like it because it was Adidas and rightfully so because most Adidas aren't good. And lovers of new stuff of course wouldn't order it. You have lots of pull. I'm glad though, because even though prices are higher, you and the Duck are getting more people into vintage and someday that may result in companies making more old school style stuff. Some already have. And ,btw also some unique designers I love in addition to Gucci Guilty Absolute are Narciso Rodriguez for him,Dior Homme, Fahrenheit,Marc Jacobs Bang,and a few others. Anyway,great video as usual. Love these individual reviews. Would love more " vintage fragrances still good in their modern form" if you can think of more that is. sorry about the long comment

[@proodscot]

Your videos are an education!

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks so much 🙂

[@SeanHH1986]

p.s. (i had to leave for work before i finished this vid this morning) when you mention that weird 80s freshness (and alberto morrilas) i thought of the original Xeryus right away....almost has touches that seem like an intro to what would happen in the 90s but with old school masculine stuff as well

[@RamseytheRam]

There is definitely a throwback vibe to this one... I love it 💪🐏

[@Genesis12nivana]

I have three bottles of Gucci guilty absolute. It's quite ahead of its time.

[@RamseytheRam]

Amazing fragrance indeed Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏

[@pokeapple]

GG Absolute smells like the interior of a nice old car. That aged leather, slight oily, gassiness with a subtle rubbery note. So addictive.

[@RamseytheRam]

Addictive indeed Thanks for Watching & commenting 🍻

[@GoranAbraxas]

I love Alberto Morillas, we just seem to click. Morillas does amazing work with leathery oud, cypress, and vetiver, and ironically, for the grandad of the bland designer trends that rule now, Morillas seems to be one of the rare perfumers willing to put out something different for designers - be it for Chopard, Gucci, or Philipp Plein.

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks so much for watching & sharing your thoughts 🙂

[@GoodDaySir]

Morillas knocked it out of the park with this one (for a designer). Really suprised me. I feel like Bvlgari Man Terrae Essence was his summer fresh version of this DNA.

[@RamseytheRam]

I have never smelled that but I will put it on the never ending to sniff list 😅

[@phutureprimitivedark]

We still have them here.. Always on sale.. No one buys them.. Amazing frag!

[@RamseytheRam]

That's nutz 🙂💪🐏

[@howyoudoin1234567]

I remember hearing all the talk about GGA, and then finally getting to sample it. It wasn't exactly off-putting, but intriguing. The vetiver accord is magnificent, and the leather/bandaid smell is oddly attractive. Also, Alberto Morillas went on to do Dark Lord by Kilian in 2018, just one year later; which is another take on the DNA. I wonder if he used the leather wood ingredient in that, too.

[@RamseytheRam]

It isn't listed in the parfumo database but that doesn't mean anything I have never smelled Dark Lord

[@timwilcox9600]

Good timing! My 50ml bottle's on its way. Dead cheap too from Notino. It was half retail and in Manchester, England it was still on sale at the Gucci concession in Selfridges department store last week! I tested some there and thought ohhh interesting

[@RamseytheRam]

I can't believe how cheap this fragrance is after being Discontinued for years Thanks for sharing Tim 🙂

[@MikeyCole8212]

​It's now produced in the u.k...not tried the new bottle yet but I'm guessing reformulated

[@RamseytheRam]

That is the rumor on the street...that the uk version is totally different

[@timwilcox9600]

Well my bottle is 'made in Spain' so I can't tell you. Very surprised if any fragrances other than niche are 'made in the UK', we don't make anything here any more...

[@JustinHight-py2sw]

Btw,i recommend Gucci Guilty Absolute to Johanna and she bought it and loves it. She said the women's version is if great too .and to me the men's version smells like bandaids ( like many people point out) plus cedarwood . I love it

[@RamseytheRam]

I have heard of a few women who love wearing this stuff... which is crazy because I wouldn't expect that but it is what it is lol

[@MarkAg47]

Agree with you on Gucci Guilty Absolute being best designer of the 21st century.

[@RamseytheRam]

Absolute definition of a banger 🤌🤌

[@LunaDad2020]

Love this one. I got my 50ml around 2020 and would carry it in my front pocket all day. Had to hold the bottle, admire the juice color, sniff the atomizer. I have issues. 😬

[@RamseytheRam]

I have done that with a decant! But I must admit never a full bottle 😂😂😂

[@filippomearelli9445]

A banger. Bought a 125 ml back up bottle for 50 bucks. Don’t remember a similar quality stuff from Morillas in years.

I just actually bought a 5 oz of this. It's a amazing scent.

[@RamseytheRam]

Congrats! And you got the tall boy 🍺

A great one. Who cannot find Gucci, Bronze Wood & Leather from Jo Malone is a good alternative. It's more polished and not as raw as Gucci.

[@RamseytheRam]

Never smelled Bronze wood & Leather but I do have some Jo Malone reviews coming up soon 🤌🤌🤌

[@Pro_96]

This one smells remicent of Dettol antiseptic, in my opinion. Also, Bvlgari Man Terrae Essence & Francesca Bianchi's Dark Knight smell similar to this. The Bvlgari is bascially GGA combined with TDH & more wearable. Black knight, I'd say, is about the same level of wearbility as GGA, albeit slightly louder.

[@RamseytheRam]

Someone just sent me a black knight sample & I black phantom sample ... lots of black frags to be reviewed soon ⚔️

[@Pro_96]

@@RamseytheRam I'm certain you'll love black knight since you enjoyed GGA, but to my nose, black phantom came off as a mess of extremely sweet notes, couldn't stand it whatsoever.

[@RamseytheRam]

Really?! That's sad to hear 😞

[@Pro_96]

@@RamseytheRam Yeah, well, perhaps it just wasn’t for me; looking forward to your review of it. Cheers!

[@sepehrabdoli489]

Ironically enough I gave this one a second try, and it was coincidentally on the same day when I had a shift as a bartender at grand prix, it was a sunny day in May, and tbh is also the only situation I see myself wearing this fragrance again, and boy the heat did this fragrance the justice it deserved, it smoothed out all the edges for me and became a way more of a well-blended and smooth fragrance to me, is weird, because according to a ton of frag heads, this is a winter fragrance, but imo some of this heavy stuff need some heat to smooth them out

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks for sharing 🙏🙏🙏

[@shallbee.]

Accidentally stumbled across it in the store, in the official boutique. So even if discontinued, still readily available. Good time to grab it for cheap from discounters for anybody who wants to grab it. I expected more from it to be honest. People make all sort wild claims how outrageous it is, idk, maybe it was outrageous when it just came out, especially from a designer, but for me personally in 2024 and given the point where I am in my perfume journey, it's not that outrageous at all. Bandages on fire? Hell no... we used to burn all kind of crap when were kids, I was always a tomboy 😈so I know exactly what kind of smell would that be if you burn hospital bandages, it would be much more outrageous smell. This perfume is just not. And it's kinda not that great overall, you can feel it's a designer, though a very good one, I mean for a designer it's gorgeous. What I get from it is some kind of industrial smell with leathery properties. If somebody would spill WD-40 on dirty leather gloves, that's how I would describe it. I also asked my friend who's not into perfume at all and she told that it reminds her the smell of farm, like the smell of a cow, which is surprising. She also told that it's really familiar scent from the nigh clubs. It's nice, but not nice enough to get a bottle. When I'm in the mood to wear stuff like that I'd rather reach for Amouage - Reflection M, Amouage - Myths M, Orto Parisi - Terroni or even the original formulation of Fahrenheit or Interlude Black Iris even. They don't smell like GG Absolute at all by any stretch of imagination, don't get me wrong, but give me the same type of mood and much, much better made.

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts... I love the WD 40 comparison 🤌🤌🤌

[@shallbee.]

But for some reason I keep thinking about getting a bottle. Oh dear me...
