Gardenia

Gardenia is originally from Asia and found in works of art and porcelain made  thousands of years ago, but in western countries the Gardenia is an ordinary houseplant. Gardenia can be used as a flavoring of tea and is said to help with fever.

One cannot extract essential oils from Gardenia; the perfumer uses dried flower extracts. The scent is sweet, floral and feels silky. The scent is reminiscent of jasmine and feel as exclusive.
