The male counterpart to last years Gucci Rush for Women. The bottle doesn't look like a bottle, more like a cassette box. The fragrance is woody and has incense and musk notes.

|  It is a pity that this one has been discontinued. As others have mentioned, this is a rather wood-heavy scent and comes across as a spicy oriental. The lavender and patchouli adds a herbal touch and the incense gives a slight powdery texture. I find this very enjoyable to wear. 29 October 2009 |

|  Notes: Top: Lavender, Cypress Middle: Cedar, Incense, Okoume wood Base: Patchouli, Sandal, Grey musk Rush for men is a spicy-woods fragrance which can be considered the progenitor of the cedary pencil shavings-dry incense accord that has become so popular over the last decade. With its cassette tape, plasticky bottle showcasing an ipod-like minimalist design, the juice is similarly sparse and effective and at the same time a bit boring due to its now well worn Ellena-in-a-lumberjack guise tone. Lacroix's Tumulte pour homme is probably Rush for mens closest knock off, and a very good (and cheap!) one at that. Rush opens with low-key lavender and herbal-woodsy cypress notes which almost immediately lead to the dry cedar-incense pencil shavings accord. The sandalwood and patchouli stay distant but provide a fuller body to the main accord. After the "shiver me timbers" plankwood heart, 4-5 hours later a light musky-woody base remains. By comparison, Tumulte pour hommes cedar-incense heart is more straightforward, slightly of a lower quality, and preceeded by (very minute) bay leaf and juniper notes but make no mistake from a distance they both smell similar. Rush for men, now discontinued, fetches somewhat absurd prices on the net. With a cheaper option in Tumulte pour homme, and a modern successor in Gucci pour homme which does more with the cedar-incense theme, one may have to think twice before splashing out $80 for a 4" X 4" dental floss box. That said, Rush men deserves some kudos for initiating the era of hip lumberjacks .. Rating: 7.5/10.0 23 February 2009 |

|  “Can’t go wrong” woody fragrance in a terrific flacon. It is very simple, well blended scent that is also extremely versatile. Notable cypress at the top soon makes room for this creamy cedar wood scent with hints of incense and amber. I have always thought Rush for Men smells somewhat very grey in colour. And still I wouldn’t call it too boring…. Highly recommended. This is very nice casual scent with great, subtle sillage. Three Gucci scents for men released inside few years time (Envy, Rush, Pour Homme) makes a very stylish trio. 15 February 2009 |
