Gardenia presents a complex, intensely creamy, waxy, and often heady white floral aroma. It possesses a rich, almost buttery texture on the olfactory palate, frequently accompanied by green, slightly mushroomy, or earthy undertones, particularly in natural or high-quality synthetic renditions. A characteristic facet is a subtle, sometimes pronounced, indolic quality, lending an animalic depth that can range from clean and bright to slightly narcotic or even fecal, depending on the source and composition. The initial impression can be sharp and green, evolving into a smoother, more opulent floral heart. Its intensity is typically high, projecting strongly and possessing excellent longevity, often functioning as a prominent heart note that lingers into the base.
