By the editors · 2 min readGardenia opens with a lush white floral creaminess that carries a subtle tropical undertone from coconut. Jasmine and narcissus deepen the floral heart with narcotic intensity while rose adds a classic romantic counterpoint. Leather emerges early, providing a dry and slightly animalic texture that contrasts with the floral richness. Oakmoss and vetiver ground the composition with earthy and green mossy qualities in the dry-down. Patchouli and amber lend a warm resinous base that softens the leather's sharpness over time. Projection starts moderately strong but settles into an intimate skin scent within three hours. Longevity extends through the evening, suited for formal occasions in cool weather.
