What It Is:
Bewitching gardenia with a startling sweetness.
What It Does:
Cruel Gardenia is a delightful trap. Bewitching and almost hypnotic, the gardenia flower reveals a startling sweetness. The gardenia accord is imbued with ylang-ylang and charmed by enveloping musks. This vaporous aura bestows the fragrance with a tenderness that tugs at the heartstrings.
Gardenia, usually so sultry and opulent, becomes ensnared in dangerously sweet musk. Out of this sensual bodily encounter, the flower emerges deliciously cruel.
A genuine Flower of Evil, Cruel Gardenia has that same devastating allure as the writings of Baudelaire. His collections were among the favorite texts of the Guerlain Perfumers, who were particularly appreciative of the multiple olfactory references contained in his poems.
Gardenia is a powerful, sensual white flower with fruity accents. Yet, paradoxically, it stays mute in the world of Perfumery, unable to offer up its fragrance through the traditional techniques of distillation or extraction.
It must be written as an accord, as if composing a poem. For Cruel Gardenia, notes of rose, neroli, ylang ylang, and peach recreate its trail.
