Fruit explosion and sweet almond kiss

From my notes during testing:
Fruit explosion at first spray, I get raspberry, dark heavy plum and sweet peach. Very quickly a wonderful deep sweet undertone is added, I strongly suspect tuberose, but not a heavy musty one, but a fruity light and beautiful sweetness that lingers for a long time. Here, the fragrance reminds me of JPG Paris By Night.
The violets also shine through, and I detect the heavy orange blossom from time to time. Very finely tuned overall!

15 minutes: hui, the tuberose picks up again and the whole thing gains sweetness.
The tuberose remains clearly perceptible the whole time, but not disturbingly so. Sillage is in the upper average range, the environment likes the fragrance very much.
As I don't have a tuberose fragrance yet and already had my eye on Scandal by night, I would opt for this one after testing it. It is finer and more balanced overall with good longevity and a clear but not overwhelmingly unpleasant sillage.

Struggling beauty

A myth tells that when the Greek hero Acamas went away for the Trojan War, he left his beloved, Phyllis, desperate, waiting for him.
After ten long years, she died, but the Goddess Athena, feeling great pain, transformed her into an almond tree.
Acamante returned and, having known about it, went to the tree and hugged it with love and pain. Fillide felt that embrace and made white flowers appear: flowering that, since then, has been repeated every year in spring.
Almond is an extremely sensual fragrance, of a struggling beauty: the flowers, in particular a clean green tuberose, are enriched by juicy fruit and soothed in their sweetness by a divine almond.
A creation full of love and beauty, like the story of Acamante and Fillide.

A white floral surprise

This should be called Tuberose instead of Almond! Sure, almond is detectable, too, but tuberose is the main star here. And what a beautiful tuberose it is: Intense and hypnotic, very creamy, always fresh and never stuffy. While it's very sweet, it doesn't turn bubblegummy like some other tuberoses do. A clean white musk keeps it from going to sugary. The sweetness in this scent comes from the vanilla and almond, not from the flower itself. I like how the almond adds a touch of nuttiness, in my opinion that often works very well with tuberose.
The fruit notes are also nicely done, they feel crisp and add liveliness to the top without taking over the scent. I can sense raspberry, zesty mandarin and stone fruits, but they all blend into one fresh splash of fruits. None of them feels overripe or jammy.
I thought there was a touch of rose in this, too, but maybe the brand name was misleading me, or facets of plum, raspberry and pink pepper, which all can be a little rosy, made me think of rose.

At first I thought this was just another white floral, nice but nothing new, but then I started to love it. Even if it might not reinvent the wheel, it's so perfectly well-blended, much better than most of the sweet white florals that dominate the designer market at the moment. It's a slow burn that becomes addictive after a while. Very intense and long-lasting, too, and the creaminess intensifies in the drydown.
