What do reviewers say about Tubéreuse Impériale and Gardenia Supercritique?
This is tuberose that refuses to apologize for being tuberose. The opening keeps it honest, the heart is unabashedly rich, and the drydown turns luxurious. Not for those who want their florals demure.Tubéreuse Impériale
Here's the thing about gardenia: everyone does it tropical, beachy, sun-warmed. This one goes somewhere else entirely. The vanilla milk gives it a gourmand edge that sounds wrong until you smell it.Gardenia Supercritique
