Elizabeth Taylor Passion (Eau de Toilette, 1988) is described as powdery white florals, smoky leather, musky vanilla, with aldehydes and coriander up top and incense, civet and leather underneath. On Elizabeth Taylor Gardenia (Eau de Parfum, 2003), expect dewy gardenia petals on fresh ivy; it starts with lily of the valley and ivy and settles on musk and carnation.
