I love Gabrielle, I dont find it to be anything groundbreaking yet it is a beautiful, calming blend. It is warm, very feminine, and perfect for any occasion. Sillage isnt great but Im generally wearing perfume for me so Im okay with that. I find J'adore to be loud and screechy and not at all enjoyable to wear.Ive tried to appreciate it many times because on paper J'adore sounds gorgeous but all I get from it is something resembling cheap white wine.

Today's J'adore is pretty good (EdP is way better than the EdT) but nothing to write home about.

Personally, I am not a fan of Gabrielle, but Gabrielle Essence is a lot better than the original.

My pick from your list is J'adore L'Absolu EdP. 

One important note, if you can find J'adore L'Or (released in 2010) I highly recommend purchasing it as it blows today's J'adore (as well as any of its flankers) out of the water.

In order from best to worst (in my opinion):

J'adore L'Or

Top Notes: Jasmine, May rose
Heart Notes: Tonka bean, Vanilla absolute
Base Notes: Amber, Labdanum, Patchouli

J'adore L'Absolu

Top Notes: Ylang-ylang
Heart Notes: Jasmine, Rose, Tuberose
Base Notes: Fruits, Woods, Musk

Gabrielle Essence

Top Notes: Citruses, Red fruits
Heart Notes: Tuberose, Jasmine, Ylang-ylang, Tunisian orange blossom
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Vanilla, White musk.

J'adore EdP

Top Notes: Ylang-ylang
Heart Notes: Damask rose
Base Notes: Jasmine sambac, Sandalwood

J'adore EdT

Top Notes: Mandarin, Citric notes
Heart Notes: Jasmine, Orange blossom, Rose, Tuberose, Ylang-ylang
Base Notes: Woody notes, Vanilla

I hope this helped.
