By the editors · 2 min readGardenia is the anchor from the first moment — the flower runs through every level rather than being staged in one phase. The opening reads dense, creamy, and slightly mushroom-funky in the way real gardenia often does.
In the heart, rose adds a velvet sweetness that mingles with the gardenia rather than competing. Jasmine threads in alongside, giving an indolic depth that pushes the white-floral character into something almost narcotic.
Vanilla and tonka in the base provide a quiet creamy warmth, sandalwood adds soft milky woodiness underneath. The overall character is a singular study in gardenia — opulent, slightly animalic, and floral-forward, with the supporting notes serving the central flower rather than diversifying the structure.
