What do reviewers say about Flora Gorgeous Gardenia and Black Opium?
This is gardenia that decided to be fearless. The brown sugar and patchouli base transforms it from a pretty floral into something with real personality. Sweet, warm, and unapologetically present.Flora Gorgeous Gardenia
If you want a safe scent, look elsewhere. Black Opium announces itself with bold Orange Blossom, cools into Coffee and Jasmine intimacy, and stays close with Vanilla and Patchouli.Black Opium
