Description: Le Galion is an old French company whose old-fashioned perfumes are still lovely and enticing to vintage perfume lovers. Gardenia (1937), an extrait, is very much of the old school; the dark, tweed-suited gardenia of Miss Dior with a fearfully potent surge of fur and scent-soaked anthers – an exciting, if difficult, delving into the perfume past (when women presumably smelled like purring, powdery moths). When this initial flower-smog clears, balmed and vaulted with the unguents of passion’s dust, the perfume steadily attains an interesting beachy note – like rock flowers bathed in midday sun and the whirring hot-sand smell of the air. (from Black Narcissus blog with a bit of editing by moi) This is NOT a Tuvache Jungle Gardenia type, nor a Chanel Gardenia. It's it's own interpretation. My nose gets roses first and it reminds me very much of vintage JOY perfume, but fresher. Le Galion PerfumeGARDENIA1/8 oz.Opened and smelled by us (no fingers were used)
