Tahitian Gardénia

Tahitian Gardénia is a plush floral-tropical fusion with a volcano of oud on the verge of erupting in the distance.

Don’t think aftershave, ‘fresh’ colognes, or cloying mainstream lipstick smells. Imagine sandy beaches and ritzy cocktails, gardenia pollen darting in and out of the flower bouquets that adorn the seaside.

If you own Musc Gardénia, you might be wondering about the similarity. Well, the two share the creamy gardenia facet to the extent that Tonkin Musk and Egyptian Musk share musk or Oud Sultani and Tigerwood share agarwood or EO3 and Sultan Red Rose share rose.

In other words, they are distinct perfumes with shared notes. And if you like Musc Gardénia, you’ll love TG.

The key difference between the two is how Tahitian Gardénia is composed more around tropical fruits instead of green, more herbaceous botanicals. For instance, there’s no rosemary or cypress in here. Instead, you’ve got a duo of high-grade sandalwood and Musk Mitti to impart the sandy beach tone sweetened by green apple, pear, and pineapple…

The sumptuous fruits are auxiliary notes that act like honey to sweeten the thick gardenia pollen that’s almost golden in tone, and it’s this union that brings to life the opulent tropical vibes. Lick it.
