Gardenia

Gardenia, An Artisan Folk Perfume by Wildfolk & Whimsy

At Wildfolk & Whimsy, scent isn’t just something we wear—it’s something we remember. Scent is more than adornment—it’s memory, mood, and meaning. Each fragrance is crafted slowly and with care, inspired by old ways of doing things—when perfume was personal, intentional, and worn close to the skin.

Solid perfumes are our foundation—the way this all began, and still the heart of what we do. Over time, the collection’s grown: rich extrait sprays, nourishing oils, and itty bitty “try me” sizes for those who want a whisper before the full song. But the soul of each scent remains the same—crafted slow, worn close, and made with care by real hands.

📖 Scent Story:

This is gardenia in full bloom. Lush, creamy, and heartbreakingly beautiful, it captures the heady sweetness of the flower just as it opens—petals still dewy, heart wide and wild with promise. There’s no powder, no pretense—just the floral soul of gardenia, untempered and true.

A whisper of green at the top fades into that familiar, intoxicating richness—creamy white petals and a sultry depth that clings like moonlight on bare skin. It’s romantic, nostalgic, and impossibly feminine. If you’ve ever buried your face in a gardenia bush at dusk, you already know.
