Gardénia Pétale

Van Cleef & Arpels · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2009

Another 2009 Collection Extraordinaire release, Gardénia Pétale opens on green lily-of-the-valley before revealing a luminous, true-to-nature gardenia heart. Nathalie Feisthauer finishes it with soft cedar and musk for a wearable, sheer white-floral effect.
