Rush 2
Rush 2 by Gucci is a feminine-leaning eau de toilette from 2001 in the designer price tier. It opens with rose, freesia and lily of the valley, moves into gardenia and narcissus and dries down to musk, oakmoss and blackcurrant. Expect around 5 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Freesia Crisp, slightly peppery floral. Clean and a bit synthetic in a good way.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
Heart
- Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
- Narcissus Green, hay-like and slightly animalic. Strange and beautiful.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
