Elizabeth TaylorWomen's Perfume, Eau de Parfum Spray, Gardenia, 3.3 Fl Oz

I am glad I went ahead and bought this even though some of the negative reviews said it smelled like old lady. This does not smell like an old lady perfume unless you think gardenias smell like an old lady. This perfume instantly reminds me of plucking off a gardenia and inhaling the sweet scent. But instead of having to keep going back to that flower for the smell, I am the smell. It makes me happy just to smell it. The fragrance lingers and you do not need to spray a lot to make it wrap you in the scent. I also bought Elizabeth Taylor’s diamond scent but THAT smelled like old lady perfume so much so that I had to toss it and run it to the can. This is not that.

If you like gardenia like I do, this is definitely the perfume for you!!! It smells amazing... It isn't overpowering and you only need a little for ling lasting scent... I would definitely recommend this and purchase it again!

I like that it smells sweet like real gardenia & white flower mixture. It’s exactly the scent I’ve been looking for. Some people have commented that the scent doesn’t last. I’ve found that it lasts much longer than several expensive perfumes I have that cost 10x the price of this one! At this price, I don’t mind reapplying it in the evening.

So this smells nice on my linens. Mixed with my body chemistry it smells old lady. Perhaps indicating I’m an old lady. Do not believe folks who say the scent is too light or wears off too fast. These are folks who have gone nose blind. It is a strong scent that lingers and smells like true gardenia. Not chemical as some say. I can only spray one spray on the pillow and then I have to sleep on the other side or it is too strong. And I spray it on the case and I can smell it on the pillow underneath. In short, it did not work as a perfume for me. But it’s a nice linen spray.

With all of the springtime flowers blooming, I was craving s gardenia-forward fragrance, and hastily blind-bought this Elizabeth Arden one. I was thinking that I'll reserve this as kind of a body spray for the hot and humid evenings that will be coming up soon, but now that I have tried it on, I think this would be perfect for daytime wear! It is VERY buttery in the beginning on my skin, but it has dried down to gorgeous, sweet gardenia. Just gardenia, nothing else. And it is VERY strong! Really love this; glad I bought this.

The scent is a rather strong scent and it smells of magnolias. It's a beautiful scent. I'm not sure of the authenticity as it does not seem to last long and you can smell the alcohol in it. You can wear it on a daily basis. You'll just have to reapply because like I said it does not last long.

If you LOVE gardenias then you’ll love this perfume! It smells exactly like a garden of freshly bloomed gardenias , I’m OBSESSED!

Gardenia is one of my favorite scents so I knew I had to give this perfume a try. Considering all of the great reviews, I was very excited. The bottle is beautiful...it looks and feels expensive if that makes sense. The smell is very strong and does linger. My only issue is, it smells extremely sweet and smells like a perfume an older woman of 90 would wear. Maybe I'll use it as a room freshener or gift it to someone.
