What do reviewers say about Gardenia and Innocence Flower?
Some gardenias smell like perfume. This one smells like the flower itself, natural, effortless, broad-smiled. It's the kind of white floral that gets worn for decades because it never stops feeling.Gardenia
Sweet without being sugary. That's the trick. The salt cuts through the gardenia's creaminess, keeping everything honest. It's the kind of scent that doesn't try too hard.Innocence Flower
