Notes
Our take

Gigi is a thick, golden white floral that leans heavily into tuberose and gardenia. Narcissus and jasmine add a slightly bitter, hay-like edge that keeps the bouquet from turning into pure cream. Mandarin orange flickers through the petals with a bright, juicy lift that feels sunlit rather than candied.

Cardamom and myrrh bring a warm, resinous spice that wraps around the flowers like a heavy silk scarf. Sandalwood grounds the blend with a smooth, pale woodiness, while vanilla adds a soft, rounded sweetness that never becomes dessert-like. The overall impression is lush, slightly animalic, and unmistakably oriental in character.

Green facets cut through the richness here and there, preventing the composition from feeling completely suffocating. The amber accord hums underneath, giving the scent a deep, slightly dusty warmth that feels vintage rather than modern. It is bold, unapologetic, and thoroughly saturated with floral density.

A woman who loves standing inside a cloud of heavy white petals will feel completely at home here. It belongs on a spring afternoon when the air is warm and the garden is in full, overwhelming bloom.
