Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Gardenia
This isn't just a gardenia; it's a grand, creamy white floral that oozes vintage charm and serious elegance. Loved by many for its lushness, others found it too 'old school' or generic. Ultimately, beautiful but divisive.

Our Verdict - Tuberóza X
This isn't just another tuberose; it's a grand olfactory statement that splits opinions right down the middle. Some find it a heavenly, elegant white floral; others are hit with a brutal, synthetic blast that sticks around way too long. Tread carefully if you're sensitive to strong florals.
