Gucci No 3 is a floral chypre that is all Italian elegance, launched in 1985, created by Firmenich. With its top note aldehydes it has a beautiful tingly beginning going into a floral soapy middle and ending as a smoky, woody leather. A seductive fragrance that is a bit showy but not 1980s loud; it is more sophisticated than that.
This is the original eau de toilette version of the fragrance.
Fragrantica - "Gucci No.3 is the sum of all the wonderful aspects Made by chypres during the 70s. There’s a beautiful fruity pink rose in its opening. There is a honeyed aspect just like what the olden Givenchy III had. It has the beautiful and gentle herbal nuances Miss Dior has. It’s really impeccably done and well rounded, smooth."
Fragrantica - "This is the perfume I deeply miss, probably forever. I bought it when I was 20 years old in the late 80's. Time filled with joy, youth, beauty, friends, colourful fashion, disco music and everything seemed to be possible."
Fragrantica - "I used to spray this with abandon! Never thinking that the party would end! To me it smells like the inside of an Italian leather purse, wafting cool refrigerated air ~ a pack of assorted Nat Sherman's; Chanel lipstick and powder compact; fruit flavored trident and a little something from Pablo Escobar."
