The selection
Le Jardin Retrouve Tubéreuse Trianon
Le Jardin Retrouve Tubéreuse Trianon by Le Jardin Retrouve: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.

Le Jardin Retrouve also has Le Jardin Retrouve Mousse Arashiyama. We have no pyramid on file for it. Give it time to settle before you judge it.

Le Jardin Retrouve Jasmin Majorelle

How to test them
Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby. Ask someone you trust what they notice, because your own nose adapts quickly. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. Two or three samples at a time is plenty; more than that and the impressions blur. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing.

Questions
How were these samples chosen?
By the tags and note lists on record for each perfume. Nothing was added from memory, the order is not a ranking, and perfumes without recorded notes are described without notes.
Are these samples made by the brands?
No. They are decants: FragranceGems fills each one from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it. They are not official brand samples.
How many samples should I try at once?
Two or three is a good number. Wear one per day, on clean skin, and write down what you notice in the morning and in the evening before you move to the next.
