Guerlaincruelgardenia Woman

Guerlain’s Cruel Gardenia is a mesmerizing floral fragrance crafted exclusively for women, offering an aromatic experience that captivates the senses. Released in 2008, this perfume is a distinctive creation by Randa Hammami and Sylvaine Delacourte. It begins with top notes of rose, neroli, and peach, transitioning into a heart where gardenia takes center stage, enhanced by violet and ylang-ylang. The base features a harmonious mix of musk, tonka bean, sandalwood, and vanilla, imparting a sweet, creamy foundation. The gardenia accord unveils an enchanting sweetness, almost hypnotic in its appeal. A delicate powdery essence adds an elegant softness, while woody and green notes provide a grounding effect. The sensual, velvety gardenia, infused with ylang and musk, introduces a whimsical touch. Part of the L’Art et la Matiere – Fleurs Passionnelles collection, this fragrance is akin to sensual lace, revealing a deliciously cruel and devastating charm reminiscent of Charles Baudelaire’s poetry.
