Gardenia Extra-Bloom

I agree with the comment that says it smells similar to Girl of Now. It's so different than the original Zara Gardenia. To me it's giving a cosy, creamy, slightly sweet winter perfume energy.

The first fragrance this reminded me of was Girl of Now. It’s not a dupe or anything but the opening is similar. It’s got that almond note right away. Then I noticed that slight almost tropical gardenia. Then there’s a slight fruity sweetness and something a little dark, perhaps the caramel? Is this a twist on their regular gardenia fragrance? That would explain the fruity aspect because I think that one has raspberry. It’s quite sweet and while it’s a bit creamy I don’t smell this and think of ice cream. Update: Upon further wearing this is a toasted nutty almond/pistachio with slight florals and a creamy base. It still reminds me of GON. There might be tiny pinches of the fruit & coffee attempts of the OG Zara Gardenia but you probably won’t smell this and think of Black Opium, coffee, or too much fruit. To my nose it’s like GON but not as strong and with a twist.
