The green soul of tuberose
After a lot of reading about it, I decided to give a try to what many have considered a beauty.
While I cannot disagree with such statement, I have nonetheless to disagree with much that has been said around websites.
I wore the fragrance about 1 and 1/2 hour ago.
The first spritz is a full blast of greenish tuberose, which reminded me immediately of my wedding fragrance (Gucci Bloom). It can't be said this is a creamy tuberose; on the contrary, its lovely green, waxy nature - not at all indolic - it's here endorsed by a crisp, vibrant jasmine.
No signs of coconut, or any of the woods listed in the notes here. Just a faint trace of musk - ghostly! - and perhaps a hint of peach blossom (though very, very weak).
All in all, this is a fantastic tuberose if you like the green notes which fresh tuberose flowers radiate when yet attached to the stem.
For those of you looking for a really creamy tuberose, try L'interdit by Givenchy.
Though the first spritz will blast up your nostrils a strong, "douce amere" candy-like scent, the drydown wil reveal to you the creamiest, tenderer tuberose I have found up until now.
Said this, I absolutely LOVE this fragrance!
