Creamy Tuberose That Lasts Forever
Velvet Tuberose is full tuberose all through its many hours of its run. It's toned down a bit but not as much as I'd hoped. The base is supposed to have woods, spices, amber and musk, but for me, none appear. Nor do any florals. Just straight-up tuberose. Which is great for tuberose lovers. I'm just not one. But, if you are, the mix in this perfume is good. It's a creamier tuberose that gives way to a bit of buttered popcorn but comes back out to its original flavor.
Bath and Body Works always seems to use these superlative adjectives, hence, the word "Velvet" in "Velvet Tuberose". No velvet here. It's not smoother. It doesn't bring images of gothic tuberose, or castles of yesteryear and long-drawn draperies. Quite simply, if you're a lover of what tuberose smells like, pick this one up on Ebay on in thrift shops. It's no longer available at the store.
If there is a mutual love affair between tuberose and you, then Velvet Tuberose is your scent. It works well alone or for layering. If you're expecting something else to mingle in, look elsewhere. It stands alone as a sensual, mature scent.
Spray sparingly. It lasts for hours. It's well worth the price. It radiates in a cloud about you.
This is one of Bath and Body Works better floral presentations from 2007.
