    Real talk

    Gardenia is a note that splits opinion, indolic and intense on some skin, lush and transformative on others. This one leans creamy and lactonic, the fruit keeping it from going sharp.Classic Gardenia
    Jontue is for someone who remembers what green actually means. Not the synthetic freshies that flooded the market in the '90s and 2000s. This has weight. It has earth.Jontue
