Question 1

is this made by tuvache the original maker of jungle gardenia

Accepted Answer

NO.  The "House of Tuvache" closed its doors in early 1977, and the formulas for all of their dozen plus fragrances were NOT shared.  In the early 80s, Yardley of London, Evian, COTY, and others, since the trademarked "Tuvache" and "Jungle Gardenia" had expired, all came out with fakes/Knockoffs that failed in the market as American women were not fooled.  The Tuvache formulas were not shared by the founder/sole owner when she disappeared in to her retirement.  At best, this a a copy of a fake/knockoff from the 80s fake/knockoffs.  Even the fragrance color is wrong from the real Tuvache Jungle Gardenia.  It may smell nice, but it does not smell like the original Tuvache...but neither did the fake/knockoffs from the 80s to early 90s.

Question 2

Is this the same perfume I would have used in the 70’s?

Accepted Answer

No, it absolutely is not. NO. The "House of Tuvache" closed its doors in early 1977, and the formulas for all of their dozen plus fragrances were NOT shared.

Question 3

Is this the same perfume I would have used in the 70’s?

Accepted Answer

No, however it is extremely close to the original which I loved. I am very happy with this product, and it is the best of any other ‘gardenia’ perfumes I’ve tried.

Question 4

Is this the same perfume made by coty? if not, it's not jungle gardenia.

Accepted Answer

Coty has not held the rights to Jungle Gardenia since the 1990s when they discontinued it.  This is the Authentic Jungle Gardenia protected by US trademark.
