I can't decide how I feel about this. As GP dries down, it does smell sort of "gardenia - ish". BUT, it is somehow lacking some quality of real gardenias. Maybe adding clove would make it more rich...

I must start by saying that this is truly my holy grail fragrance. I loved it the first time I sniffed it and have now gone through multiple bottle of it. When I first moved to Texas, I planted...

Uh, where is the gardenia in this? I am unclear on why anyone thinks 'tubereuse'is interchangeable with 'gardenia'. These two flowers smell nothing alike to me. AG apparently believes otherwise...

A remembrance of collegiate things past. One of the first on the market before the Annick Goutal deluge. Beautiful gardenia, though potentially heavy. For evening.

Beautiful "wedding" fragrance. The gardenia scent is more realistic as a lot of reviews have said. Deffo warms nicely when on.

I love this fragrance. I have worn it for two years now and have also gotten my mother to love it also. My first attraction to Annick Goutal fragrances was the lovely bottles. I am a sucker for...

At $90 a bottle, this is extremly expensive. That said, I will keep buying and wearing this. The dry down compliments my skin, and I love that this is a 'warm' gardenia, not a 'cool' one like...

Very nice! The wonderfully generous AmyM was kind enough to povide me with a sample of this lovely gardenia fragrance. I've noticed many have mentioned that it seems like a rather heady or hot...

I got a mini of this in an AG mini set and was enchanted. Normally, I do not like gardenia or tuberose scents, but I do have a few (can count on one hand) exceptions. This is one of them. This...

I can't wear this... it's much to heady for me... I love gardenias, I really do, but this is like gardenias to the nth power, overwhelmingly strong and sweet. I got a headache within minutes, and...

i like this - its fairly rich and a little heady, which i prefer to sweety gardenia/tuberose scents like jean paul gaultier's. the base is warm, which i always like. i think its more of a winter...

This is much too heavy and sweet for me. I thought I'd enjoy it, but it tends to give me a bit of a headache.

I understand why some might find this too sweet or heavy, but I apply it lightly and love the way it dries down on me - sweet gardenia and tuberose, not too floral nor powdery nor old-ladyish.

A bit too sweet and heady for me -- it gave me a headache. I truly love gardenia fragrances, but only if they are *not* hot and heavy (no, I don't mean that :) !). Then again, I'm not a big...

This is one of the only fragrances I've ever repurchased. I've been wearing it for at least 8 years and it's still my very favorite gardenia fragrance. To me, this is the only fragrance that comes...

Well, you can certainly smell the Gardenia in this one! Jasmine and tuberose are also apparent, but it lacks the vanilla undertones of the original Passion. Strong rather than heavy, and fresh...

A true Gardenia. You feel like a blossom in a huge bowl of fresh water. Floating, just floating. Fresh and without a single fault. Its femenine, floral and very sexy. Lasting and thank god NOT...

This is a very heady gardenia. If you love white florals this is a good one. It is sweet and the gardenia is very realistic smelling, unlike many gardenia fragances that have that plastic smell to...
