I think this is one of the more true to life Gardenia scents around.I've grown them my whole life and they have such a hard scent to replicate.They are floral,creamy and have a hint of spice.Almost all gardenia scents just smell like tuberose but this captures the complexity of a real bloom perfectly.

I had such high hopes for this and got so excited to see cardamom listed as a note as I love the smell of cardamom. But what a disappointment. The gardenia and cardamom I can each smell distinctly but they totally clash with each other and create a horrible soapy smell. Truth be told, I'm predisposed against white florals, but in small amounts they're ok, and I wasn't worried as I liked all the other fragrance notes. Then the tuberose, which I normally like, joined the mix and it wasn't good. This is the first Jo Malone I have actually disliked. :/ At least the candles smell nice.

Worn alone it seems too linear and soapy, but makes a perfect duo when layering it with Vanilla&Anise, adding a new edge to otherwise too sweet for me fragrance.

this is a strong floral scent, with a strong high pitched tuberose. but don't worry. it wears off in a couple of hours. COMPLETELY OFF. I like the classic quality of gardenia, and LOVE LOVE LOVE Penhaligons Cornubia which I think also features Gardenia (although it's not stated here on fragratica), but wears for soo much longer and with a more complex pallate.

The first spray smells good and like wild strawberries,but then it just smells like alcohol,pitty because i like the very first smell of it.

This is the only Jo Malone sample that I really, really dislike. On me it smells of rotting funeral home flowers and terpentine.

The opening on my skin is a sweet candy tuberose with gardenia, very delicious and edible, but also a little fabricated. Then, a note like fresh oil paint (linseed oil, actually) creeps in and reminds me of college art classes. This is art school in a bottle to me. The paints, the faint perfume, the sunlight coming in the window of the studio...As the scent dries down, the spices come in murk the clarity up, making it harder to discern the separate notes and ruining the clarity and simplicity of the blend. In the end, I don't like it, but it was an interesting trip for awhile.

light and polite for this subject-matter, a kind of washed out girly spa version of tuberose & gardenia

I find this a relatively 'refined' gardenia scent, not as 'skanky' as the Tuvache fragrances ( Jungle Gardenia and Tuvache Gardenia, which I love to distraction). I don't get much in the way of incense, just a very pleasant tuberose-gardenia, not quite as decadent as I was hoping for. This I could even wear to work, whereas my beloved Tuvache DOES NOT accompany me there.

Oh, this is a lovely one: gardenia, tuberose, spices, wood, and myrrh, all of which I adore, and together they are absolutely luscious.

The gardenia and tuberose are almost equally weighted, to my nose, and that's just fine with me. I love them both, and they hold hands like sisters. The cardamom and myrrh are very aromatic; with the sandalwood and incense, they hold down the sweetness of those Big White Floral Sisters and add a rich grounding depth. This fragrance is relatively linear, and I get pretty much the same fragrance all the way through, although the florals finally fade before the wood and incense do.

Some may find this too sweet. I don't, but then I generally like sweet, warm, Big White Florals, of which this is a decadently lovely example.
