Very nice, soft gardenia. I also really like Marc Jacobs perfume, but I could see having a small bottle of this in addition because they are quite different interpretations of gardenia.

Back in the late 90s, St. Ives produced a short-lived Gardenia 2-in-1 shampoo in a pale purple bottle. It didn't moisturize my hair very well, but it smelled FABULOUS so I used it anyway. Vintage...

Vintage Gardenia is heavenly. It's rich without being too heavy, floral without being cloying and sexy without being obvious. It's an elegant, lovely scent that, like all Jo Malone colognes, has...

This is a very nice scent. I love how it blends with my chemistry. It is a nice floral but not too sweet it has a lot of warm notes in it that really make it stand out from the other gardenia...

Gardenia is my favourite note and I've tried lots of gardenia perfumes but this one is very special. It's creamy and dreamy, calm and relaxed. Wonderful! Somehow Vintage Gardenia makes me feel the...

Wow, wow, wow! I've tried so many gardenias, including Chanel which I found too artificial smelling. *This* is what dreams are made of - beautiful, creamy, feminine, soft and lovely. Although...

I adore gardenia; it's one of my favorite notes. While most gardenias I like are more green, Vintage Gardenia starts out lush, creamy and elegant. The cardamom and myrrh give it warmth and depth,...

This is one of my favorites by Jo Malone. I bought it for my wedding last summer because it was such a classic scent that I felt fit the ocean-side: light, soapy but floral. I also wore it on our...

I love the smell of a Gardenia and I am always on the search for a good gardenia scent. Some are way to heavy and way to sweet. Now a gardenia is heavy and sweet, but still has the lightness to it...

very soft and delicate scent. Hardly noticable when I sniff my wrist, but now and then when I move around I catch the scent, yes it's there, subtle as a fragrance should be. Not an in your face...

Best Gardenia ever- elegant, think Grace Kelly- slik scarves, pearls, a black dress and champagne. A fan of Chanel Gardenia and Michael Kors, this is so much more interesting, a complex smell more...

I had to jump in when I saw my little baby, Vintage Gardenia, not getting the praise I feel it deserves. First off, I must politely disagree about bananas lurking in the mix. I am a lover of...

When I first joined MUA, before trying 100s and 100s of samples, I thought I liked gardenia, but changed my mind ... until this rendition. It is mostly gardenia, but has other ingredients blended...

To me, Classic Gardenia has a grassy sort of fragrance. I like it, but it doesn't smell like gardenias. Neither does it smell to me like bananas as some other reviewers have noted. The problem...

Totally insipid gardenia fragrance that smells of cedarwood from the start and has very poor lasting-power. The SA assured me that there is no cedar in Vintage Gardenia, so it must be the result of...
