Fragrance Poetry inspired by Cuir Gardenia from Aftelier.
You’re a fauna among flowers.
Seldom to settle down.
Both wondrous and wild.
Making men mad and madly in love.
At times, I plunge into your petals.
Soft, satin and smooth.
You’re a Garden of Gardenia.
And I’m inebriated in nectar.
But your dichotomy is dramatic.
You’re not frail and feeble foliage.
Pull your Petals and you will Prick.
Even, arguably, animalic.
To end, your allure is honored.
Your charm, cherished.
Your delicacies are delightful.
And your ferociousness, feared.

I can be a prick and I do make men mad but not at all in love unless it’s with someone else 😂

Good luck! The provide samples from their website. They are a neat company that uses all natural products. And I believe they search for the finest versions of those ingredients from all over the world. I found them from reading the perfumer’s book, “Fragrant” (Mandy Aftel).They have a museum in Berkley, CA where you can smell all of the natural ingredients, including antique versions of ingredients you can’t source anymore, like natural musk, or natural ambergris (which is hard to find).
