Girly, flirty tuberose

The tuberose here is pleasant, girly, a state of matter somewhere between powder and cream. However, from that price tag I expect more. Personally, I don't care for tuberose in large doses. Here, the concentration of tuberose is good, and the pairing with jasmine and ylang and ylang is ideal. My issue, and this is my pet peeve with a lot of BDK perfumes, is with the base notes. This is an expensive niche perfume, but when the base notes break through, it smells pretty average, like a lot of other vanilla-dominant perfumes that cost a lot less. I recognize that resinous vanilla-santal combo from a lot of other perfumes less pretentious or expensive.

It's a decent enough tuberose, but I wouldn't bother purchasing it when I know there are other amazing tuberose perfumes out there, like my first tuberose crush, Luci ed Ombre (Masque Milano). The tuberose in Luci ed Ombre is like a sexy Old Holywood blonde starlette, posing in the stage lights. Compared to Luci ed Ombre, Tubereuse Imperiale is like the fan girl backstage who came to the movie premiere, hoping to meet and possibly get the star's autograph.

Tuberoza aici este plăcută, abordabilă, fetișcană, o stare a materiei undeva între pudră și cremă. Dar la prețul acesta și cu eticheta de parfum de nișă, nu știu, parcă ar trebuie să-și dea mai mult silința. Nu este o concentrație enormă de tuberoză, care ar putea fi jenantă, și împerecherea cu stânjenelul, ylang-ylang, și iasomie este elegantă și bine balansată. Nici deschiderea de care se pare că se plâng mulți pe alte site-uri Fragrantica nu mă deranjează neapărat, deși nu prea îmi plac mușcatele. Problema mea este, ca și cu alte parfumuri BDK care sunt promițătoare la început, evoluția spre notele de bază. Aici începe să-și piardă farmecul, devine destul de obișnuit, ca multe alte parfumuri la prețuri mult mai rezonabile, aceeași vanilie rășinoasă cu lemn de santal care am mirosit-o în multe alte amestecuri mai puțin pretențioase.

E okay, dar nu m-aș omorî să-l cumpăr când știu că există și tuberoza din Luci ed Ombre (Masque Milano), acea tuberoză sexy, ca o blondă zveltă într-o rochie albă, a la Old Hollywood, pozând prim-plan în lumina reflectoarelor. Pe lângă Luci ed Ombre, tuberoza de la BDK este doar ca fata din culise care a cumpărat un bilet la premieră în speranța că o va putea întâlni pe starleta pe care o idolatrizează și poate, poate îi va primi și autograful.

Beautiful bubblegum tuberose

TI is a beautiful and easy to love, sweet and creamy tuberose scent. I feel like even those who absolutely detest the scent of tuberose would be able to appreciate and wear this.

With the addition of the vanilla and benzoin in the base, this fragrance has a beautiful, smooth, delicious ambery vibe to it that just elevates the tuberose. It’s not your average bubblegum candied tuberose scent, it’s definitely got some depth to it. From first spray, the tuberose comes through with some aromatics and with the support of a bright ylang ylang, powdery iris, and slightly indolic jasmine. They never take away from the tuberose though, and as the it dries down, that vanilla really comes all the way forward and adds a deep sexiness to the overall vibe of the fragrance. I don’t get heavy doses of the sandalwood or patchouli, but I feel they are just the perfect touch of woodiness to a mostly sweet, white floral fragrance. It’s really really REALLY nice. I wore my sample the other day and was getting glorious whiffs of it as I went around. My boyfriend really enjoyed the scent as well and kept his nose buried in my hair lol. I mainly wear my perfumes for myself, but it’s always a plus when my love also likes them too.

I could bathe in it

The first time I smelled Tubéreuse Impériale, in the city of fragrances right in Paris. And he was no longer out of my head. In general, my skin seems to be able to do well with the BDK fragrances. Therefore, some have already made it into my collection.
But how is the fragrance now.
She pleases me extremely well this tuberose. Sure, it is very pleasing, it has finally also gsnz quickly conquered my heart but I find it not less interesting. In the head it shows itself depending on the day form really different.
Only today I smelled a light not sour lemon, no idea where it came from, the pyramid does not give it. Most days, however, I smell a nice light green tuberose right at the beginning. It is not bubblegummy but nicely floral. Slightly sweet but in no way sticky sweet, as still a bit green durchbitzt. Exactly that pleases me extremely well.
In the course of the drydown comes to the tuberose of ylang-ylang to it and it becomes tropical, sunscreen-like. This is also what my environment erschuppert. The frabe of the juce I therefore also find very appropriate.
The scent is very present without being intrusive and lasts surprisingly long. With four sprays in the morning I riche him even in the evening still good. It is never too much for me, this tuberose and I feel feminine and well-groomed with it. It just works with T-shirt and jeans during the day but also dressed up for dinner.

Super feminine.

Tubereuse Imperiale is a fragrance where you have to be a little patient. Something is missing to make the fragrance really interesting.... If tuberose, which is rarely the case with me, then it must really crack, so bubblegum of the finest, which is not the case here. Chic but also a bit dull..

Immediately after the aufprühen smells the very arbitrary. One of those fragrances that you felt a thousand times where else has smelled. A bit sharp in the nose. Tuberose, rose geranium and ylang ylang the usual mixture ...? In the dry down but the fragrance becomes softer and much more interesting . A touch of incense blends beautifully and uniquely with the vanilla and a touch of pepper, with the tuberose being the absolute protagonist.... For me, the pepper comes through strangely only in the dry down very weak...The fragrance becomes almost creamy at the end and very very feminine and noble.... Nevertheless, it is very arbitrary, which must not necessarily be something negative. Not everyone wants something super extravagant..
Durability is quite all right, sillage for my nose too weak but the still comes on my WL....
