    I loved it. This scent takes me straight back to my 20s. It’s such a shame it’s no longer on the market.

  2. I wore it for years and always got compliments. My coworker Vilma wore it at the office too; we adored it. It was delicious for us, and people always asked what it was. It was between 2002 and 2005. I bought it again for my collection and stored it alongside my Guccis for three years without using it. Yesterday, after a shower, I sprayed it on my neck and arms… ¡waooo! It brought all those beautiful moments back to life. It still smells incredible, lasts all night, and is super sexy for any woman. Thanks, Gucci Rush 2, I’m so glad it’s in my collection.

    It’s a bit like Air Sutil, they share some notes, though this one smells slightly sweeter, but it keeps that freshness. If you’re looking for something similar, this is your option.

    I loved this perfume back in 2001. The comments about sensuality, night, summer, clean, and sweet fit perfectly. I’ve been trying to find it in Argentina for years but can’t. If anyone knows of a similar scent, I’d be so grateful.

    It smells like a new Barbie, that sticky Barbie from when I was a kid, that doll hair scent. I loved it, it lasts a long time. What a pity they discontinued it 😢. I have very little left, but it’s one of my all-time favorites.

  6. I don’t get it, it smells like soap. I thought it would be something wow and spectacular, but I didn’t find anything special. I’d buy it because it doesn’t smell bad, but I’m not sure I’d spend that much; it would have to be on sale or a gift, haha. A bit disappointed because I got excited by reviews saying it smelled like sex and parties, but it didn’t 🙁

    Terrible! I can’t find any floral notes in this fragrance; to my nose, it’s just a bunch of dry branches. My 7-year-old niece found it addictive 😟 and took it. I don’t like it on her either.

  9. I was 20 when I was given a sample. I don’t know if it was the hormones of youth or the perfume notes, but it transported me to a party night with sex included. I’d never smelled anything like it. I bought it and it ran out quickly. It doesn’t smell the same today; it could have been a niche perfume perfectly. It’s one of the few times I can’t describe the notes, only what it makes me feel. It’s muuuuy sexy, a bit unisex, and slightly sweet.

I’d never smelled anything like it. I bought it and used it up in no time. It’s not a perfume you’d smell these days; it could have been a perfect niche fragrance.

  11. It’s my sister’s favorite perfume… it’s totally different. It’s sweet (not extremely) and has a freshness that makes it very sexy and playful, like a wink that cuts through its sweetness. It has layers; you have to feel it over time. Excellent longevity and sillage, not invasive but rather due to that fresh and green touch. It’s impossible to find in Argentina, but if you see it somewhere, take your time to smell it because it’s truly unique and has something that makes it very relevant.

    It’s one of my favorites. I’ll just say it’s fresh and sexy at the same time. Out of the hundreds I’ve used, it’s in my top 5. Its sillage is spectacular. The only thing I can’t accept is the bottle; I don’t think plastic is suitable for such a wonderful fragrance. You can say it’s modern, but I stick with glass, even if it’s a simple bottle.

  13. What a cool perfume! The first time I tried it, I couldn’t stop smelling my own wrist. It’s fresh but full of attitude; I’m sure it’ll be one of my all-time favorites. I absolutely love it, I love it.

    If Gucci Rush was already an aroma with serious weight, Rush 2 takes it to the next level. The mossy notes add depth to that floral field, but beware: it’s not what it seems. It hides a secret; it’s wild and exciting. It has a plastic touch and at times reminds me of something almost morbid, with nothing innocent about its suggestions. The longevity is brutal.

    I picked it up at an alternative perfumery and it smells like a doll—that scent plastic dolls or toys used to have. I don’t know how to describe it better, but it seems appropriate, even for a little girl.

  17. The success of the female version of Gucci Rush brought this extraordinary perfume to life, although unfortunately it’s discontinued and hard to find. Rush 2 is as handsome as its older sister, but with a more intense scent. The Italian house swapped the fruits of the original for blackcurrants with a masterful balance. Overall, it feels more youthful than traditional Rush: where we once had a formidable woman, here we have one with an overwhelming sexual allure. The scent is light but beautiful, lasting several weeks on clothes and over 14 hours on skin, with a trail that extends much further. Its powdery floral effect might be responsible for these performance levels we rarely see anymore. It’s an aroma like few others, part of the generation that made Gucci famous. The rectangular transparent plastic bottle is visually very attractive. In short, girls, if you see it, don’t hesitate a second to spend your allowance; Gucci Rush will return compliments, and why not, conquests. 10/10.

  18. Wonderful perfume, full of personality, and on my skin it has incredible sillage and longevity. It’s special, smells clean but with a sexy touch. It has a very green note and also a very floral one. I see it as perfect for spring and summer, especially on hot nights. It’s a shame it’s no longer available in perfumeries.

  19. I’ve had this perfume for about 10 years and for me, it’s been one of the three most beautiful ever made. It’s jovial yet elegant, intense… simply gorgeous. I’d give anything to get it here in Mexico. Pity it’s discontinued. Edit: I used Hugo Boss Ma Vie Pour Femme and it faintly reminds me of that delicious Rush aroma, although unfortunately, it falls far short of its glory.

  20. I wore this a decade ago and it’s still one of the three most beautiful fragrances that exist. Cheerful yet elegant, intense… simply gorgeous. I’d give anything to find it here in Mexico. It’s a shame they no longer produce it. Edit: I tried Hugo Boss’s Boss Ma Vie Pour Femme and it reminded me a bit of that delicious Rush scent, although unfortunately, it falls far short of its glory.

    It’s incredible that my 8-year-old niece found it so charming she took it from me. I wasn’t wearing it because at some point its notes smelled like baby vomit to me. But I will definitely be a fan of Gucci scents.
