Guess 1981 Los Angeles Women guess
by Guess
Guess 1981 Los Angeles is a light, sweetly fruity floral with a soft, creamy, and powdery drydown. It opens with a sharp, citrusy zing of mandarin orange and pear, quickly evolving into a gentle blend of white florals—jasmine, orange blossom, and peony—balanced by a subtle musk and vanilla. The ambroxan and cedar add warmth and depth, giving it a slightly gourmand, skin-scent quality. The performance is modest: it lingers only a moderate amount and fades into a delicate, intimate trail, making it ideal for daytime wear, especially in spring or summer. The scent carries a clean, soapy innocence, reminiscent of a premium body wash or a lightweight, modern soft perfume.

- −Some users find it generic or overly sweet, with a synthetic or musky drydown that can feel dated or unbalanced
