Real talk
This is the aldehydic lift. Some find it old-fashioned, but that's precisely what makes it work. It takes gardenia from garden flower to architecture, giving the white florals a structure that holds.Expression
Ysatis doesn't negotiate. It opened in 1984 knowing exactly what it was, and the decades since haven't changed its mind. If you've been burned by aldehydes, this one earns another chance.Ysatis
