Disclosure: This Guess Girl perfume review features a bottle sent to Baking Beauty for editorial consideration.
Guess says: Guess Girl announces itself with a burst of vibrant fruit. The flirtation continues with exotic, rare flowers, while creamy woods and vanilla tease the senses, leaving an irresistible and memorable impression.
Baking Beauty says: This subtle fragrance is perfect for summer.
According to Guess, the official notes are:
Top notes: Raspberry nectar, melon, bergamot mist
Middle notes: Brazilian paradise orchid, Provence acacia flower, lily
Base notes: Australian sandalwood, Madagascar vanilla
On first application I immediately notice the raspberry—bright and juicy, reminiscent of a fruity drink or candy. As it settles, the fragrance shifts into a softer, more mysterious finish that feels sensual without being heavy. I find myself repeatedly sniffing my wrist.
I appreciated how light and fruity the composition is. While Guess Girl is categorized as a fruity floral, it reads primarily as a sweet fruit scent with a subtle sparkling sandalwood undertone. The woods and vanilla provide warmth, but they never overpower the fruit.
Its moderate projection is a plus for warm weather. In summer I prefer fragrances that are airy and unobtrusive, and this one allows you to smell sweet and fresh without being overwhelming.
Guess Girl is also available as:
Eau de Toilette 3.4 fl. oz. / 100 ml $62
Eau de Toilette 1.7 fl. oz. / 50 ml $52
Eau de Toilette 1.0 fl. oz. / 30 ml $40
Body Cream 6.7 oz. / 200 ml $28
I also noticed a discounted Mother’s Day gift set on the brand’s site around the time of this review.
