The Essence Vault Flora Gorgeous Gardenia - 700 is an Eau de Parfum. Flora Gorgeous Gardenia - 700 opens with Brown Sugar and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Brown Sugar and Musk. The Essence Vault's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia - 700 carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

No. 700 keeps Gucci's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia's gardenia-jasmine-brown sugar shape recognisable, but comes out sweeter and simpler, missing the original's subtler red-berry lift and more considered floral balance.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

No. 700 takes its cue from Gucci's Flora Gorgeous Gardenia, opening with a fruity pear and brown sugar burst before a gardenia-jasmine floral heart, finishing on a soft musk-sugar base. It captures the cheerful, opulent white-floral character reasonably well, but the interpretation is sweeter and more straightforward than the original, which uses red berries and pear blossom for a more delicate, layered lift into the gardenia. Here the sugar and gardenia sit more upfront, making for an easy, likeable but less nuanced scent. Performance is moderate, offering a few hours of joyful, sweet floral presence well suited to spring and summer daytime wear, at a fraction of the designer price.
