What do reviewers say about Gardenia and Minuit à New York?
This isn't the gardenia you find in summer soaps. Floris built a white floral with structure, bergamot keeps it crisp, but the gardenia and ylang-ylang underneath push toward something richer, warmer.Gardenia
White florals get dismissed as shouty. Here's what that misses: tuberose softened by peony and anchored by suede stops being loud and becomes present.Minuit à New York
