   |  If you love gardenia, go try it. I'd even urge you to grab a bottle asap since it is probably the most exact portrayal of Gardenia in the perfume world. To me, it smells very much like the gardenia bush that my mom grows in her garden. The scent is very "white flower", i.e. stong and heady. Interestingly, its longevity and sillage is very poor at the same time (as mentioned by previous reviewers). Thirty minutes after application, you can bearly notice it 1 meter away. I guess that the tradeoff for an extremely low price. 21 November 2008 |
  | Very very nice gardenia. I also get a bit honeysuckle and hyacinth or lilium at the background. Gardenia is sweet and heavy in its nature; like jasmine or magnolia. These are bold notes and can not be airy. So this scent is a bit heavy but i think it appreciates the gardenia as it should be. 08 October 2008 |
 |  This was just horrible to smell! I thought it might lighten up when I wore it, but, nope! I just got a very strong, stinging chemical waste odor from this. Way too spicy! Yucky, yuck, yuck!20 April 2008 |
 | Wearing this is like crawling into the branches of a big fat fully blooming gardenia bush and getting intoxicated by the beautiful fragrance that's surrounding you. I have 3 kinds of gardenia in my yard, and YR Gardenia manages to smell like those pure gardenia flowers. I can honestly mistake it for the scent of gardenia in the air in my garden! Terrific stuff! 01 November 2007 |

| I love this because it smells exactly like a real gardenia: lightly creamy and sweet floral with a tinge of spicy greenness. However, it has almost no sillage and very poor longevity on me. It is very inexpensive though, so you can reapply often. 24 March 2007 |

| True to life gardenia scent, and nothing else! Very nice and reasonably priced. 31 May 2006 |
