What does Gardénia Tropical smell like?

Peach, plum and Sicilian lemon open on a fruity brightness, while grass and spices add a green, slightly sharp edge. In the heart gardenia, Egyptian jasmine, orange blossom and Turkish rose take over. The base of Bourbon vanilla, amber and white musk sweetens it and settles into a soft, powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of votes is small. With its floral, sweet profile it can be worn by men and women alike, and its fruity freshness suits warmer weather.
