Chere Marie-Helene,
How are you ? I have a question for you..
Gucci Rush - the original.. would you happen to know the notes ?
I am calling on behalf of my my friend Lea
(a Montrealer) . She, as well as I love this scent .
Merci Beacoup -
J'espere que tou va bien avec toi -
Amities-
Madelyn E
Hello Madelyn,
Nice to see you. Yes, the notes for Rush are freesia in the top, gardenia, jasmine, Damascene rose, coriander in the heart, and vanilla headspace, patchouli, and vetiver in the base.
Dear Marie Helene:
Thank you for answering my question about Gucci Rush original. I happened to read that Gucci will be discontinuing this fragrance. Is this true? I'll have to stock up as it is my favorite fragrance! How sad as it is a fabulous scent -- maybe if they changed the bottle?
