Perfumistas - is there something that smells like Jo Malone gardenia?

[InterestingShipNames]

I rarely wear perfume but when I do, it’s an ancient bottle of Jo Malone loves gardenia. It’s finally coming to an end and isn’t available any more - are there any perfumes that are similar? I’d ideally buy the same again, but can’t find it anywhere.

Chanel exclusifs do a Gardenia. I don't know either the one you mentioned or the Chanel beyond a sniff in an airport, but it might be worth a test?

M and S do a white gardenia ?

Chanel gardenia is gorgeous - but you can only get it in the salons

Plus o think they carry it in selfridges

Chanel Gardenia is lovely but ££££!
Bought mine from eBay.....

I’ve seen another gardenia recently, a mid price one. I will try and remember who it was, I’m sure it was a mans name eg. Thierry Mugler

Looks like the perfume parlour have it as a dupe. I’ve heard the pp jo malones are spot on.

Ooh, I will see if I can try the Chanel one at the airport next time I’m flying, thanks! And then possibly get it from ebay...

Tinyteatime I had a look at your link, but putting Jo Malone gardenia into the search box didn’t bring up any results. I’d love to find a dupe, what would I need to search for? I tried gardenia, but it brought up tons and started getting rather technical.

Gucci do a perfume called gorgeous gardenia- it is on offer in debenhams. I was going to buy it today but they had no open tester bottle so i didn’t want to risk it

Oops sorry I thought I’d posted the link to it. I think it’s this one-vintige gardens

Sorry Shipnames, you can only get it at the standalone Chanel Boutiques. They used to sell it in the small boutique in selfridges which is where I got mine.

Jo Malone has her own brand now, Jo Loves
There’s a gardenia perfume there

Oh, I’ve just looked at the website, only a candle now in gardenia fragrance
I’ve got the original Jo Malone one and the Jo Loves one....in my wardrobe

truffle Ah, this buying perfume thing is complicated. So that’s off the table.

Nana That’s the one I’m use about to run out of, the Jo Loves one.

Thanks, tiny, I will try a tester of that.

I wear Chanel’s Gardenia - it is lovely but very expensive - I buy mine online from Chanel it at the store in St Pancras.

Not the sage but a more “unusual” perceive I wear is Ester Lauder Tuberose .

Kai is gardenia based

This website is useful for searching by note, and includes lots of personal reviews: www.fragrantica.com/notes/Gardenia-19.html

There are lots of Gardenia perfumes which are easy to find.
Chanel gardenia is available at Selfridges, Harvey Nichols and on the Chanel website.
Kai is a soapy sort of gardenia,
Elizabeth Arden do a gardenia fragrance.
Jo Loves do one,
Marc Jacobs Woman,
Michael Kors has one,
M&S,
Crabtree Evelyn,
Agree- look on fragrantica for ideas.

Thank you all!

And especially Fresta, I know nothing about perfumes so that is a very handy list.

Marc Jacobs woman is my all time favourite perfume but is a bitch to find now.

Chanel Gardenia is available at John Lewis online
