About OCD
OCD is a vibrant floral oriental eau de parfum for women, inspired by Guilty by Gucci. It is the most contemporary-smelling fragrance in our range and the one that suits a modern wardrobe best.
It opens with a bright citrus sparkle and a peppery lift, the kind of beginning that feels clean and slightly sharp rather than sweet. There is nothing syrupy about it, which is unusual for a fragrance with this much warmth waiting underneath.
The heart is soft blossom. It reads as a blend of fresh florals rather than any single flower, smooth and lightly powdery, with a green thread running through that keeps the whole thing crisp. This is the part of the fragrance that lasts longest in the mind: pretty, but with an edge.
The base is warm and grounded. Amber gives a golden glow, a touch of patchouli adds depth and earth, and soft woods hold everything close to the skin. The finish is sensual without being heavy, which is exactly why it works as well at four in the afternoon as it does at nine at night.
Wear it in spring and autumn, by day or evening, to work, dinners, weekends and dates. Three sprays. It suits women who want a fragrance that feels current rather than classic, and it is one of the easier scents here to wear every day without tiring of it.
If you love Guilty
If you love Guilty by Gucci, OCD belongs to the same family. Both are modern floral orientals built on a bright, slightly peppery opening, a soft floral centre and a warm amber base with a little patchouli underneath to keep things from turning sugary.
Ours is a shade greener through the middle, which gives it a crisper feel, and our amber base is slightly lighter, so the dry-down sits closer to the skin than the original's. The overall character is similar: clean, contemporary and sensual rather than sweet. Longevity is good at around seven hours with moderate projection. OCD is inspired by that fragrance rather than a reproduction of it, and the lighter finish is where it goes its own way.

When to wear it
Spring and autumn suit it best, and it handles day and evening equally well. It is comfortable at work, at dinners, on weekends and on dates, which makes it an easy everyday choice. Three sprays at the wrists and throat, applied to moisturised skin. The 50ml at R120 is the practical size for a fragrance in regular rotation.
Questions people ask
Does OCD smell like Guilty?
It shares the same modern floral oriental character, with a bright opening and a warm amber finish, that people recognise in Guilty by Gucci. Ours is an original composition inspired by that fragrance rather than a reproduction.
Is it sweet or fresh?
It sits between the two. The opening is fresh and slightly peppery, the base is warm and amber-led, and the balance is what makes it wearable in most situations.
Is it appropriate for work?
Yes. Three sprays stay within your own space and the composition reads as clean and contemporary rather than heavy, which suits a shared office well.
Would it suit someone who usually wears fruity fragrances?
It is a natural next step. It has the same easy wearability but more structure, which makes it feel more grown up without asking you to change your taste entirely.
