Blue Gardenia

Blue Gardenia from the Argentine brand La Martina is a woody white floral worn by anyone, composed by Luca Maffei and released in 2020. Everyone who has described it calls it floral, about half find it woody, and smaller groups mention green, musky, ambery and citrus facets.

The notes are listed together. Bergamot and Paraguayan petitgrain open with a bright, slightly bitter, leafy citrus; the heart is a full white bouquet of magnolia, night-blooming jasmine, orange blossom, lily of the valley and white rose, with magnolia bringing a lemony creaminess and the jasmine a heady warmth; and the base of cashmere wood, sandalwood, amber and musk is soft, velvety and warm.

No wear reports have been collected, so longevity and sillage are unknown. A magnolia and jasmine floral over soft woods of this kind suits spring and summer days and warm evenings, and would appeal to anyone who likes lush white flowers with a smooth finish. It is sold in 40 ml and 80 ml bottles.
