Description

Gardenia was launched in 1996. Delicate and sweet, intoxicating and sensual, it starts with fresh, green and fruity top notes, which leads to the heart of gardenia, lily, cyclamen, tuberose and jasmine and the warm base of sandalwood and labdanum.

    Luca Turin gave it one star in his review book with the reason “it doesn’t smell gardenia at all” if I remember right.
    I bought a bottle of it (EDT) several years ago. It’s a fruity white floral scent, not very typical gardenia at all and not actually my cup of tea. But I don’t think it’s a one-star trash. To me, its fault is, Floris’ gardenia is too girly to stand among those nanny classics.
    If you expect a true gardenia scent, floris’s probably would fail you, it’s too candy sweet to be creamy enough, let along green-ish. Still, there are people who might just like this kind of scent.

    It smells like rabbit shaped rubber eraser from the eighties.

    Hm. I might have made a mistake here. I ordered this discontinued perfume from Floris because I absolutely love gardenia, because I read brilliant reviews about it elsewhere, and because it was half price. And now I have 100 ml of something that I am not sure about. Of course, my fault…lesson learnt: NEVER ever ever ever blind buy a scent!
    It does open fruity, but I miss the promised greenness. The fruity note quickly disappears, and then it is a white flower bouquet, a bit on the too sweet side. My beloved gardenia can be detected only if I smell very carefully. After testing Jo Loves Gardenia for days now, which is the ultimate gardenia scent for me so far, this is not REALLY gardenia.
    Having said this, it is a rather well balanced and elegant fragrance, and I am writing this review shortly after having applied it. I shall give it some time and come back with the update.
    Update: it is slowly, slowly growing on me. On the objective side: great longevity, quite unexpected, really, from a Floris scent. After wearing it all day yesterday, I applied one spray at 8 pm last night, and upon waking up this morning (6.30) it still lingered around me. And lingering it does in a very nice, subdued, dreamy way. I can still hardly detect gardenia, for my nose it is rather a large white floral bouquet.
    This is really a funny experiment for me, cause I would never have bought this fragrance in a shop. But now that we are sort of stuck together by chance, I do enjoy the dance of getting to know each other. I am not entirely sure we shall be a couple, but wait and see…

    Sadly, this is discontinued. If you see it on eBay GET IT. It’s a rich, creamy, intense gardenia. I have the EDP and love it in winter. The EDT is more suitable for summer.
