I just want to introduce myself.
Hi there! i just found this website, and it's fabulous! I just wish I'd found it years ago. I love perfume, rose is my favourite scent. Gardenia is a very close second. I enjoy EDP's the most, although I will use EDT if I have no other choice. Any suggestions for perfumes with rose as the main fragrance would be awesome, any gardenia ones too. Or even better, if there's a rose and gardenia scent, where the 2 are mixed!
Anyway, nice to meet you all. I hope to get to know you better!

On Sillage:
If someone can smell me at more than an arm's length away, I'm probably wearing too much of whatever I applied; if she can distinctly make out the top notes, then perhaps I left the house a bit too soon..

I tend to compliment people on their frags to make short talks rather than anything more meaningful.

Re: I just want to introduce myself.
Hi Mosaic! Welcome from another newbie! I'm not a huge fan of rose, so I'm not a good judge of that, but as far as gardenia goes, I find the gardenia in Dior Pure Poison to be very pronounced. Still, all time favorite gardenia is Marc Jacobs. I wore it for quite a while, and I've been tempted to go back to it.
Re: I just want to introduce myself.
Hello, Mosaic. Have you tried layering your favorite rose with a favorite gardenia fragrance? It could work beautifully.

Just to start
Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart; but the heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as a fragrant forest.

Mosaic - welcome to BN - I suggest Eau Suave by PdE as something awesome for you to try out. Have fun.
Re: I just want to introduce myself.
Welcome aboard buddy. Please remember to always sample before your purchase, it will save you a lot of money and disappointment.
Re: I just want to introduce myself.
+1 for Stella McCartney. Paul Smith Rose is a lovely, true rose scent.
My favourite gardenias are Estee Lauder Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia, & Van Cleef & Arpels Gardenia Petale.
l don't recall any perfumes that have both notes.

Re: I just want to introduce myself.
try Hothouse Flower by Ineke. Soooooo nice. Ineke also makes a pleasant one called Briar Rose.
I'm pretty new here, too. Good to have you with us!
Re: I just want to introduce myself.
Welcome. Aside from any suggestions you have and will get, you can always try the fragrance directory; hit the advanced search tab and you can search fragrances by notes, or combination of notes. I just ran it and it said there were 155 fragrances with those two notes together. Have fun!
