    What do reviewers say about Black Violet and Gucci Rush?

    The dark violet and oakmoss combination is what makes this work, a sophisticated, slightly dangerous edge that works everywhere and lasts all day. The 8-10 hour longevity is the real selling point.Black Violet
    Rush doesn't whisper. It arrives. The waxy, almost plastic quality in the gardenia is either the thing that hooks you or the thing that sends you reaching for something safer.Gucci Rush
