Gardenia Petale by Van Cleef & Arpels Perfume. Gardenia Petale is a delicate and subtle floral perfume for women that features soft and sweet notes. Prominent citrus notes sprinkle throughout the top of the scent, but are quickly balanced by a generous bouquet of floral refreshments. Gardenia, white flowers, lily-of-the-valley and jasmine combine to deliver a satisfying collection of sweet and luxurious scents. The lightness of the perfume makes it the perfect complement to spring evenings.
