The Scent of Fabulous: Vintage Gardenia from Jo Malone

| 4 Comments
jm_CATEGORY8535_272.jpgMy friend Janet gave me a Jo Malone candle in Vintage Gardenia and I am now obsessed with the scent.  I have always been a gardenia freak; my dream is to have a garden full of gardenia trees so I can pick fresh gardenias every morning for my table (it can be done if my hubby would just build me a green house to store them during the cold months!) 

Is there anything more intoxicating or seductive than fresh gardenia?  I've tried every gardenia scent out there and Jo Malone is hands down one of the best! I don't even know how to explain it but it is the scent of old world glamour to me.  Not trendy nor boring, but glamorous and timelessly chic.

In light of the economy, I told my hubby I only want a few of the Vintage Gardenia candles in my stocking along with the body creme and bath oil, that's not too much to ask for, right?  I mean this is coming from a girl who used to ask for Fred Leighton baubles in her stocking!  Check out the Vintage Gardenia line here.

If you are not a Gardenia girl like me, there are many other drool worthy Jo Malone gift sets you can pick up for the beauty snob in your life in yummilicious scents such as Pomegranate Noir, Grapefruit, Lime Basil & Mandarin, Nectarine Blossom & Honey, Amber & Sweet Orange, Lime Blossom, Orange Blossom, and Wild Fig & Cassis.  Gift sets from $90-$1,200 at Jo Malone boutiques and counters at Neiman Marcus, Saks, and Bergdorfs.

  • Vintage Gardenia is one of my favorites! I layer it with Jo Malone's Vetiver. I'm a gardenia freak too -- any other gardenia scents that you love? It's hard to find good ones!

  • I love Jo Malone products, but I can never decide what to buy because everything is sooo good. If I bought everything, i would be broke :( Looking forward to visiting the Jo Malone counter to smell your favorite product. :)
