My lily in autumn
When I was looking for a fragrance with a lily, I happened to hear about Gardenia from Piguet, a short time later I was the proud owner of a bottling....The fragrance has done it to me from the first minute, I was clear - here I have to do with a real treasure.
This Gardenia has something appealing and yet distant about it.
Although the name of the fragrance may confuse some, in reality the noble lily presents itself here in its full splendour. Main actor even.
For me the perfect lily that doesn't cause headaches and is very wearable (even for the office).
Lily that appears spicy with a hint of green, not intrusive and not too sweet at all. Pure elegance.
Perhaps the leather chord lends here a certain structure and also order so that it does not become too much flowery and monotonous. The masculine side defuses here a little the sweetness and makes the scent rounder.
This lily unfolds especially in autumn and gives generously its warmth and protection.
Although the shelf life is not above average, but it is better that everything remains in moderation, after all, you do not have to smell strong for 8 hours uninterruptedly, a hint of this fragrance I still perceive over a longer period of time.
Gardenia combines for me the balance of presence and yet understatement, as well as a certain restraint (which can rarely be said of fragrances with lilies.).
I wouldn't be able to wear the scent every day. It's like with your favourite food - the special thing about it is that you only want to taste it at special moments and not constantly, otherwise it quickly loses its status as "favourite" and at some point it will only taste ordinary...
So it is with me with the favorite smells - rarely carry, only then it has something magical and precious in itself!
When I wear Gardenia by Piguet, the noble lily demands a completely different posture from me and the mood becomes corresponding. From head to toe I feel incredibly feminine, soft, vulnerable, yet unapproachable, confident and proud.
I would recommend this wonderful and exquisite fragrance to anyone who is looking for "the lily". You won't be disappointed!
In this sense I wish you much joy, fun, glow in your eyes, and sea of emotions while trying and wearing your many wonderful fragrances!
