Gucci nail polish is a new favorite of mine. After testing out Black Gold, I decided to try Iconic Ottanio by Gucci. This fabulous dark teal hue offers shimmer and shine; like no other teal I have ever tried. This is a fabulous, unique nail polish color.

Iconic Ottanio nail polish by Gucci looks amazing with all shades of blue, green, purple and pink; as well as all neutrals-of course! It is a beautiful color to wear right now and in early spring. I also feel like Gucci Iconic Ottanio nail polish would be fabulous to wear in the fall season. 

I tested out Gucci Iconic Ottanio nail polish with two coats of color, one base coat, and no top coat. The nail polish lasted seven days without chipping! Love that! I am looking forward to wearing Gucci Iconic Ottanio nail polish throughout the year. It is an eye-catching hue which I found random strangers comment on while I am out and about. That is amazing!

Gucci Black Gold nail polish review

I have been admiring Gucci’s beauty products from afar for quite some time now. When I spotted Black Gold at the Gucci beauty counter, I decided I had to try it. After all, it is an unusual color, and I love unusual nail polish colors!

Gucci Black Gold nail polish is a dark, sparkling black with heavy gold sparkles. It can also look chocolate brown at times. It has a little bit of a disco flair to it. The color is also a neutral, making it easy to wear on a daily basis. 

I tested out Gucci Black Gold nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color; no top coat. The nail polish was strong; it last ed a full seven days! The only reason I took it off was because my nails had started to grow, and I don’t like seeing growth at the bottom of my nail-beds.

I definitely want to test out more nail polish colors from Gucci. They are fresh hues, and the polish is long lasting. Love that!

Gucci Premiere eau de parfum review

Gucci Premiere_1

Pictured: c/o Gucci “Premiere” eau de parfum.

Gucci “Premiere” eau de parfum is a beautiful, luxurious fragrance from iconic design house Gucci. This warm, leathery fragrance was inspired by the Gucci Premiere Couture collection shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 2010. Gucci “Premiere” edp offers a luxurious, warm fragrance experience which is reminiscent of a star-studded, Gucci-clad red carpet.

Top notes: orange blossom, bergamot

Middle notes: leather, fur

Base notes: musk

Gucci “Premiere” starts off with a warm, floral scent which is string yet feminine. The musky base offers a warm platform throughout the day as Gucci “Premiere” cycles through its’ top and middle notes. Although “leather” is listed a middle note, the scent is light, with musk  florals dominating the fragrance experience.

This is a beautiful, warm fragrance which is perfect for a formal event, date night, or anytime you want to feel luxurious and beautiful. The warm notes and medium strength make Gucci “Premiere” perfect for cool weather and moderate weather up to about 75 degrees.

I’m looking forward to wearing Gucci “Premiere” on special occasions and when my mood is feeling a need for luxury 😉 This will also work well on cool summer nights, especially when the fog is off the bay.

Gucci “Premiere” eau de parfum is offered in both 1.7 oz and 2.5 oz. The fragrance can be found online here, here and here.
