Tiare (Tahitian gardenia) flower is a component from the flowers of Gardenia taitensis, the base of Polynesian monoi oil. INCI: Gardenia Taitensis Flower. In a formula it works as a fragrant conditioning component: it adds softness, gives a delicate floral aroma, and appears most often in skin and hair oils. It is primarily a fragrancing-conditioning botanical component rather than a standalone active. Allergenicity. As with floral components, contact allergy to tiare aroma compounds is possible in sensitized people; most do not react. Pregnancy safety.
