What does Jardin de Borneo Gardenia smell like?

Voters find its longevity and sillage good, though the vote count is small, so the picture is tentative. There are no season or occasion votes to go on, but it reads neither distinctly masculine nor feminine.

It opens on gardenia and jasmine sambac. The heart holds gardenia absolute, sandalwood, lavender absolute and tuberose absolute. In the base, ambergris, Borneo oud, civet and Haitian vetiver add an animal, powdery, woody depth, while fruity and gourmand touches soften the sweetness.
