Gucci Premiere by Gucci was launched back in 2012. The nose behind this EDP version is Frida Giannini, former creative director of Gucci.

The inspiration behind this perfume was the gowns from the Gucci Premiere couture collection, which were displayed at 2010’s Cannes Film Festival.

Gucci Premiere Eau de Toilette came out in 2014 with a more casual vibe. Its release turned into a storm after they featured Blake Lively as the face of this floral perfume.

The addition of champagne, along with bergamot, is a new addition to this EDT perfume.

You can’t miss the hint of jasmine and rose that brightens the mood, and the depth lingers more due to the presence of leather.

Gucci Premiere EDT is suitable for everyday use and will last up to 6 hours. And if you are traveling, make sure to pack your perfume bottle properly to avoid any spill or breaking.gucci-premiere-eau-de-toilette-gucci

Now that you have the initial information about Gucci Premiere’s beautiful floral perfumes, it’s time to know their main differences.

Here’s the detailed comparison of Gucci Premiere EDT and EDP:

Opening

The first impression matters the most. I genuinely believe it. Because whenever I buy any designer perfume, I make sure the opening is outstanding.

Gucci Premiere EDP opens with bergamot. Its light tart bitterness with a mild spicy tone elevates the tangy juiciness of blackberry. The yellow color of the bergamot with it reminds me of the darkness under the light.

It’s always there and without which the presence of brightness becomes dull.

When I first sprayed Gucci Premiere Gucci, my sleepiness was gone in a minute. For me, it’s an instant mood booster.

Now, let’s discuss the Eau de Toilette edition.

The start of this perfume is infused with freshness, whose main reason is bergamot and orange blossom. This sweet white flower, along with the sparkling fruity aura of champagne, is a different touch compared to Premiere EDP.

My sister-in-law is obsessed with Gucci Bloom and Gucci Flora. Gucci Premiere Eau de Toilette is a new addition to her collection.

Its unique tangy opening is the main reason she got this one.

So, which fragrance has the better opening?

Gucci Premiere Eau de Parfum opens with a much more pleasing aroma, in my opinion.

Projection And Longevity

Before buying any designer perfume, there are some factors that you must keep in mind. Longevity and projection are such factors.

One common thing about Gucci Premiere EDP and EDT is their moderate longevity.

My Gucci Premiere Eau de Parfum lasts around 6 hours, while my sister-in-law said she reuses her EDT version after 4 to 5 hours.

Now in terms of projection, Gucci Premiere EDP gives moderate to soft projection and sillage. That means those who are closer to you will smell your perfume.

On the other hand, Gucci Premiere Eau de Toilette projects well for the first 25-30 minutes. After that, it fades away.

So, if you don’t mind frequent reapplication, you won’t have any other problems.

In a word, it’s a tie when it comes to Gucci Premiere EDT and EDP’s longevity and projection.

Complement Factor

A better way to get compliments is to smell wonderful. And Gucci fragrances are known for their wow factor that amazes everyone around you. Gucci Premiere EDP and EDT are no different.

Gucci Premiere Eau de Parfum smells incredible and energizing with its beautiful blend of citrussy, musky, and fruity tones. Even with its 6 hours longevity, people will come and ask you what you are wearing.

This floral perfume leaves its trail around your arm’s length. Let me tell you a funny story.

Last month I went to a party wearing Premiere EDP, and a friend of mine also did the same. So, when we were standing side-by-side, the whole room was filled with an enchanting flowery aura.

On the contrary, Premiere EDT comes with a modernized classic formula that also gets attention but lasts less than the original fragrance.

So, it’s clear that Gucci Premiere Eau de Parfum has the upper hand here in the complement factor.

Versatility

If you are still thinking which is better, Eau de Parfum or Eau de Toilette. Then their versatility will give you some closure along with their performance.

Gucci Premiere EDP is a remarkable scent for a successful and confident woman.

And this masterpiece is richer for hot summer days. It suits the cozy warm, yet chili fall, the bright spring and winter daytime.

You can also pull this well-balanced perfume in the evening.

Meanwhile, Gucci Premiere EDT, with its white floral, musky, and tangy calm tone, elevates most during the energetic temperature of fall and spring days.

Moreover, this soft and sophisticated perfume suits the warmer seasons, but as its sillage and longevity are moderate, it’s not the ideal choice for winter.

With that being said, Gucci Premiere EDP is more versatile than Premiere EDT perfume.

Value For Money

It’s not unknown that Gucci fragrances come with a hefty price tag. Now let’s compare which Gucci Premiere costs more and which one is budget-friendly.

Both Premiere EDP and EDT come in three size options.

A 50 ml bottle of Premiere Eau de Parfum costs $349, and a 75 ml bottle costs $479. Meanwhile, Eau de Toilette’s 50 ml bottle comes at $249.5, and a 75 ml bottle will come at $374.25.

It’s crystal clear that Gucci Premiere EDP is the expensive one.

Yet considering its performance, longevity, and complement factor Premiere Eau de Parfum is the better option.

Overall Scent

From the beginning till the end, Premiere Eau de Parfum holds a youthful, classy, and elegant aura.

The top starts with a blast of bergamot along with celebratory and feminine orange blossom. Its citrusy vibe is refreshing as well.

At the scent’s core, you will sense the intense aroma of white flowers, which mingles with the richness of musk and becomes more alluring.

Finally, in the dry down, this fragrance settles down with the earthy sweetness of woody notes along with patchouli.

On the other hand, Gucci Premiere Eau de Toilette opens with the freshness of bergamot and the sweetness of orange blossom, which evokes the smell of vintage champagne.

The heart is enriched with soothing jasmine, powdery freesia that mingles perfectly with rose and musk.

The closing of Premiere EDT is earthy and smoky, combining patchouli, leather, and woody notes. The base is quite similar in both of these versions.

Both Gucci Premiere EDT and EDP smell beautiful and alluring, but in my opinion, Premiere Eau de Parfum’s overall smell is more pleasant.

Final Verdict

Though both Gucci Premiere Eau de Toilette and Gucci Premiere Eau de Parfum have similar DNA, the original represents a more mature and darker side of women.

So, if you are looking for a more versatile fragrance with a bright opening and a more complement factor, Premiere EDP will be your jam.

And to enjoy a lively, bright, and elegant perfume with moderate sillage and longevity, Premiere EDT is the ideal pick for your daily life.

Now, I have discussed every nook and cranny so that you can choose your favorite floral Gucci perfume that resembles your personality the most.

That’s all from my part. Let me know which one you chose in the comment section.
