An uplifting scent for the new season ahead, think creamy gardenia topped with pear, wrapped in sultry jasmine and skin-like musk. Elegant and comforting, keep this one for yourself.
Post-pandemic, scent has become a powerful tool for self-care. The right blend of notes can manipulate our mind – improve focus, re-energise, or simply soothe us. Our sense of smell is intrinsically linked to emotion and memory. In fact, 75% of our daily emotions are down to what we smell.
So, if you’re in the market for a mood-shifting scent just for you, look no further than Miller Harris’ Secret Gardenia (£115 for 100ml).
Its star floral, Gardenia, is a little-known stress-buster. Research has found that compounds in its petals could ease anxiety and promote a better night’s sleep. Brought to Britain as an exotic houseplant, gardenia’s blousy ivory flowers will quickly permeate a room with its heady creamy aroma.
Secret Gardenia is a fresh white floral with a twist. Elegant and comforting, undertones of sensual jasmine and ylang-ylang bring warmth, but it’s the refreshing pear top note that transports you to sunnier climes. And with high levels of natural raw materials and serious staying power, it’s the perfect pick-me-up for brighter days.
Head Notes: Bergamot EO, Yuzu EO, Aqual and Nashi Pear.
Heart Notes: Gardenia, Jasmin abs Egypt, Ylang-Ylang and Violet Petal.
Lasting impressions: Driftwood, Creamy Sandalwood, Cedarwood EO and Musk.
New launch: after huge customer demand, Secret Gardenia will join the Miller Harris bath and body collection this summer. Watch this space…
