About this item
Only six components make up Demeter Gardenia, and the flower is allowed to be the entire point, green notes and citrus giving the top a crisp, sharp character, a brief introduction that clears fast rather than lingering. Gardenia and jasmine build the core, the gardenia given clear prominence with the jasmine simply reinforcing its indolic richness underneath. Creamy notes and musk finish it soft and skin close, the creaminess extending the flower rather than replacing it. Beyond the brief green opening, there is only flower and skin. Most gardenia fragrances surround the note with fruit or wood to make it easier to wear, and this house takes the opposite approach, presenting the flower. Gardenia belongs to easy, pretty daytime moments, a floral Cologne through and through. Comfortable, dependable and unmistakably Demeter, Gardenia wears exactly as promised.
