Where to buy

It is thanks to jeans that they made it. With the famous “Stone-watched”, the Marciano brothers revolutionized America. Building on this success, the Guess house launched into perfumery in 1990 with “Guess”. In 2014, the house presented “Guess Dare”, a floral-woody feminine fragrance offering unforgettable emotions.

A haute couture creation

“Guess Dare” was designed in the same way as a haute couture dress. The ambition of the “Guess Dare” perfume is to be audacious and different. The “Guess Dare” young woman is herself different from other women of her time. The Guess house stated that this perfume will make young women want to take risks, live freely, and go beyond conventions. The “Guess Dare” young woman presents a complex, multi-faceted personality. She is highly refined, sensual, seductive, audacious, elegant, mysterious… Guess invites us to show our true personality, to dare to be ourselves. Moreover, “Guess Dare” conveys Californian joie de vivre. More than a simple essence, “Guess Dare” is a genuine philosophy of life.

Guess Dare, an audacious fragrance

Signed by Bruno Jovanovic, the “Guess Dare” composition is a subtle blend of floral, fruity and woody notes. “Guess Dare” opens with a bright freshness of lemon blossom and kumquat, a citrus little used in fine perfumery and known for its tangy, mellow scent. These are joined by pear blossom, which offers a sweet and juicy touch. The heart is a blend of cactus flower, wild rose and jasmine. The base is exotic thanks to the presence of coconut. Blond woods, in turn, lend more character to the whole. Finally, white musks add a final touch of elegance and sensuality. As for the bottle, it is adorned with voluptuous shapes, as if to reaffirm the femininity of this essence. It also reflects an emblematic pair of jeans from the brand, with stud imitations displayed on the upper part of the bottle. This pair of jeans is the brand’s DNA, a great success that the house wishes to pay tribute to. The neck is wrapped in a pink-gold chain bearing the brand name, adding a sexy touch to the whole. The packaging features a denim print, topped with metallic pink rivets.

A composition filled with audacity for an ultra-seductive woman. “Guess Dare” stands here as a genuine philosophy of life. A very joyful fragrance, it embodies the Californian art of living, full of sunshine. “Guess Dare” is also a return to the brand’s roots, to its beginnings, when the four brothers decided to sell “stone-watched” jeans to Americans. A fragrance where anything is allowed…
