    The one that got away. Gucci discontinued it, and the secondary market knows it. But what a scent, woods that feel creamy, a powdery warmth that lingers.Gucci Rush for Men
    A safe bet that doesn't feel safe. The jasmine-musks heart is the kind of move that either works or haunts you, and for many it works. The fragrance opens bright and inviting.Ascendant Pure
