Introducing White Gardenia Petals, from UK’s Illuminum Perfumes.

Worn by Kate Middleton on her wedding day and available in the US exclusively at Henri Bendel.

As fragrant as a vase of white flowers, quivering in the breeze by an open window, this is a delicate and refined perfume. The top note of Lily evokes a tropical seaside location, whilst the heart notes of White Gardenia, Muguet and Jasmine breeze bring a trio of white flowers into play, much like a bride’s bouquet. Amber Wood base note underscores this light and capricious bouquet.

A saturnine and Cimmerian odour: purplish haze of a scent which is by turns chocolaty, libidinous exotic and mysterious. The elements are Opponax, Tonka, Black Tolu and Patchouli: a whirling dervish of thick, dark odour. Incense and Musk add extra intensity and voluptuous carnality.

Nothing could be as delicate and alluring as a single blush rose fluttering in the breeze. There, a divine essence is extracted from the petals producing Otto Rose Absolute a lulling lullaby of a perfume note, as caressing and pink as  babies lips. Gentle flowers surround it in this naive and delicate bouquet: Egyptian Geranium, White Rose Bulgaria and Taif Rose. It is a symphony of roses underscored by a powdery sandalwood. Perfect for anyone who seeks purified femininity or a man in search the ancient scent of kings.

As calm and serene as a Lily pond this fragrance ode to classicism is predicated upon the delicate bloom of Egyptian Jasmine and Lily blossom contrive to form a pleasing bouquet of clarion white flowers. Musk accentuates it all with pillowy softness.

A curious aromatic scent in which Moroccan Orange Flower is made piquant with Red Thyme and Cambodian Oud. All the weightless zesty allure of the orchard with all the chiaroscuro effects of Oud. Golden Somalian Frankincense provides the base note, resonating with resinous charm.

Oud from Laos and Cambodia conspire to create a tropical rainforest effect with Cloves, Indonesian Patchouli at the heart and a subtle animalic base; altogether irresistible.
