Scent Notes
Gardenia, White Flowers
It begins with a luminous burst of fresh-cut gardenia and delicate white flowers—a clean, bright opening that feels both natural and refined. These top notes establish the signature creamy warmth that defines this fragrance, unfolding with an airy sophistication that draws you in.
The middle notes reveal the heart of this composition: a seamless development of those gardenia blooms, deepening into a soft, almost buttery floral presence. The creamy character builds gently, creating an effortless elegance that feels intimate without being overly sweet.
A moderate composed projection carries this fragrance beautifully throughout the day and into evening, delivering 6–8 hours of presence that feels natural and sophisticated. The base provides a subtle, warm foundation that allows the gardenia to remain the star, with a sillage that turns heads without demanding attention. Versatile across all seasons, it truly shines during warmer months.
Performance & Wear
Expect 6–8 hours of wear on skin with noticeable projection. Apply to pulse points for optimal diffusion. Layer with the Body Oil to extend longevity throughout the day. Perfect for warm weather and spring occasions. HumanSafe™ Verified · IFRA Compliant · 100% Vegan & Cruelty-Free.
