How to choose a fragrance for a first date
A first date is like a little performance where every detail matters. Clothes, tone of voice, glance...
Bogue is an Italian niche house founded by Antonio Gardoni in 2012. Its fragrances are always distinguished by their boldness and depth.
Gardelia, launched in 2016, was created to mark the 50th anniversary of the Bologna boutique Profumeria Sacro Cuore and the wedding anniversary of its owners.
It is an ode to love and femininity, embodied in a lush white-floral accord.
Gardelia is a true fireworks display of white flowers: gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, and frangipani create a rich, almost intoxicating bouquet.
At its heart, spicy and animalic notes unfold—cognac and civet—lending the composition sensuality and depth.
A base of beeswax, black pepper, and metallic notes adds an unexpected contrast, leaving a light powdery-peach trail.
At the same time, the sillage is barely perceptible: the fragrance wears intimately, attracting only those who are close by.
Lovers of classic floral fragrances should take note of similar compositions: Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, with its aldehydic freshness; Jil Sander No 4, with its soft powdery accent; and Guerlain Jardins de Bagatelle, with its luxurious floral heart.
Gardelia is a women's fragrance in eau de parfum concentration, belonging to the Floral, Aromatic, and Powdery fragrance families.
It is ideal for evening outings, romantic dates, and special occasions when you want to surround yourself with an atmosphere of luxury and tenderness.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day

A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The fragrance pyramid opens with a vibrant accord of white flowers: frangipani, gardenia, jasmine, rose, and tuberose. At the heart of the composition are civet, cognac, geranium, magnolia, and a woody accord.
The base is formed by beeswax, black pepper, metallic notes, peach, and powdery notes. This complex, multi-layered bouquet unfolds slowly, revealing new facets with every passing hour.
