Cruel Gardenia

What does Cruel Gardenia smell like?

Cruel Gardenia opens on musk — the smooth hush of skin scent — and lets it set the mood. Beneath it, sandalwood settles as a smooth sandal note in lush air, while vanilla drifts toward dark pod sweetness with cured edges. Around it, rose drifts as honeyed petals with a soft apricot glow, tonka bean trailing a beige glow with almond shadows. Worn, it reads warm and edible — a sweet, woody centre lifted by soft musk and white florals.
