Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Flora Gorgeous Gardenia EDP
A luminous, joyous white floral that blends creamy gardenia with juicy pear blossom and a playful brown sugar base. It is effortlessly charming and radiates feel-good energy.

Our Verdict - No.520 Gorgeous Gardenia EDP
No.520 leans hard into Gucci's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia - a bright pear-and-berry opening over a sweet gardenia heart. It skips the original's powdery finesse for a louder, simpler fruit-floral, so it reads a size cheerier and a size less sophisticated, but the gardenia-forward character is unmistakably the same idea.
