By the editors · 2 min readThe gardenia here arrives with a waxy, green-white density that feels almost sculptural. It's not the sweeter gardenia of Southern verandas but something cooler and more guarded, with jasmine threading through to soften the edges. Tuberose emerges as the composition settles, lending its characteristic creamy weight, while osmanthus introduces a subtle apricot-suede texture that keeps the white florals from tipping into excess.
The musk signature that runs through the Narciso Rodriguez line appears predictably in the base, though here it's darkened by patchouli that reads earthy rather than hippie-sweet. The result feels more substantial than many in the collection, with a density that holds close to skin.
This is for someone who wants the Narciso Rodriguez aesthetic—modern, minimal, musk-focused—but prefers their white florals with more presence and less powder. It wears like an architectural white shirt: structured, deliberate, quietly commanding.
