About tiare flower
The Tiare Flower, or Gardenia Taitensis, is a symbol of Tahiti and a cornerstone in exotic perfumery. Its scent profile is intensely floral, with a creamy richness that sets it apart from other floral notes. The aroma is both sweet and slightly green, embodying the lush landscapes of its native Polynesia. Tiare flowers are traditionally soaked in coconut oil to create Monoi oil, a process that captures the flower's essence and imparts a deeply moisturizing property to the oil. In perfumery, Tiare Flower is used to add depth and a touch of the exotic to fragrance compositions. It lends a luxurious, velvety layer to floral bouquets and can transform a simple scent into a complex, multi-dimensional experience. The note is particularly valued for its ability to blend harmoniously with a wide range of other notes, creating fragrances that are both unique and evocative of tropical elegance.

Perfumer's Tips
Tiare Flower is best used as a heart note to impart a creamy, lush floralcy to compositions. It pairs well with lighter top notes to create a smooth transition to richer base notes. Due to its potent aroma, it should be used sparingly to avoid overpowering other elements of the fragrance.
