Thanks for the additional pics! I was afraid the prices would be very inflated but now delighted the price point is similar to Dior, YSL and Chanel.
I checked the website but it seems to be only available in the boutiques in Europe and not the US.

I'm sure it can only be a matter of time before the make-up line goes global. Maybe it's a soft-launch? I didn't feel there was a huge fuss over it.
I hope to go and look at the products on Sat and report back. After all the proof is in the product
After the jump, we are now post-Pat McGrath, post Frida.
drawing a line -------------------------------------------------------------------
As you know we now have Thomas de Kluyver's vision for the brand.
Gucci do a powder (which a don't have) and a bronzer>
Here's my bronzer
I have the 01 - which I've been waiting to come in for ages
It's very soft, very slightly pink in tone - certainly not that orange/yellow that you mostly get. I mix a little blusher higher on the cheekbones and even highlighter (Pat McGrath - which ever was the original dusty pink-toned)
This comes with a refillable case. The powders (Poudre De Beauté) and the bronzers (Poudre De Beauté Éclat Soleil) have the same case but initially different colours. They will release refillable 'some time' so you could swap.
Short review.
Texture: Very soft
Scented: Yes, apparently, but I didn't notice anything
Result finish: matte-satin "glow", very natural, no micro-glitters, no pearls
Blend-ability: Practically blends itself
Shade (01) Fair. Very light for a bronzer. Wear as a trad atonal bronzer over the cheeks for the 'just caught the sun look' or if you're really pale as 'brontour' to sculpt. It's very hard to find such a light, non-orange bronzer. There's very little change you can overdo.
Purpose: Bronzer; bontour, contour, one-and-done shadow for the palest skin-tone or possibly natural blusher for deeper.
Packaging: Turquoise and gold (officially Aqua Blue) with pink velour pink cover. Includes mirror and brush (the brush stored in the bottom). No YTber likes the brush but I do. It means everything is in one place for the morning when I have less than 2 mins to put on makeup, perfectly OK. Much better and a pad. Use very gently since the power is soft. Not particularly heavy case, or should I say not as heavy as expected.
For future ref (from the gucci.com website):
Resulting in a sun-kissed glow, Poudre De Beauté Éclat Soleil unifies and sculpts the complexion and delivers a luminous looking finish. Available in 5 warming shades, the powder has a soft and silky texture and a buildable formula that smooths on and blends effortlessly, resulting in a natural colour and comfortable, long-lasting look. The delicate-scented, creamy powder is applied with an angled brush applicator stored within a coveted aqua blue compact.
