Tuberose Odyssey
After I received a real tuberose bouquet for the first time in my life with a delivery from my flower bouquet subscription, and my entire apartment smelled wonderfully of it for days, I was on the hunt for an authentic tuberose scent.
I also noticed that in the fragrances "Caron, Secret Oud" and "Sama, Deva des Fleurs," although tuberose is not listed, it clearly plays a pleasant role for me.
Now I knew how tuberose should authentically smell in perfumes.
In the past, I had smelled some fragrances that listed tuberose, and I thought I recognized the bittersweet charm of the flower.
In reality, I was smelling a lovely and finely tuned mix of white flowers without animalic notes, as I now know.
However, in many other fragrances, I detected a listed
tuberose note that presumably referred to tuberose. But I perceived its scent as musty, stale, sometimes like damp, overly used dishcloths (which I occasionally mentioned very briefly and flippantly).
That was and is my perception of those kinds of fragrances.
So, after my encounter with a fragrant tuberose flower, I set out to find the ultimate tuberose scent. And I encountered the pleasant fragrances with white flowers again. Tuberose was also part of the scent play in some fragrances.
Then I saw the fragrance at ALzD: Caron, Tubéreuse. Unfortunately, no sample was available. I contacted ALzD regarding a sample order.
They wrote to me that they were selling out the Caron fragrances from their range.
If I wanted, they would send me for free both the last nearly empty bottle of Tubéreuse perfume and Tubéreuse EdP along with the ordered samples, plus a sample sprayer with Tubéreuse EdP.
Such a thing is for me a small huge happiness. And what a lovely generosity and trust is being extended to me.
And now the bottles are in front of me.
First, I tested the EdP. I like it, but I also perceive jasmine among others; I will test it again later and list it.
Then I respectfully sprayed "Tubéreuse Parfum" and: Voila! This is truly the tuberose scent I was looking for. "Tubéreuse Parfum" is very similar to the EdP, but the perceivable notes are less complex; it is entirely focused on tuberose.
And it has a medium sillage like extraits/perfumes usually have in contrast to EdPs. The longevity is at best mediocre, which suggests very good and natural ingredients.
"Tubéreuse" Parfum starts with a harsh, almost rough tuberose note, a hint earthy and powdery, somewhat green. Here, I would suspect iris. As it develops, a fresh, airy note flows through the fragrance, which is probably meant to be "peach" in the pyramid. Because "Tubéreuse" Parfum remains powdery dry, but becomes a bit softer and sweeter. I always perceive peach in fragrances as a pleasant powder, more like scented geranium. After that, "Tubéreuse" Parfum becomes softer, more lovely, and - I perceive it this way - creamy through a fine, subtly dosed sandalwood note.
Nevertheless, "Tubéreuse" Parfum will never be a pleasingly sweet or an overwhelming, intrusive scent of white flowers for me. It remains a superb and quirky, not sweet fragrance.
And now I happily perceive - yes, I can say so - the wonderful scent that once delighted me for days with the tuberose bouquet.
Otherwise, I do not perceive anything else individually in "Tubéreuse" Parfum.
Rather, in "Tubéreuse" Parfum, only the strangely and strongly fascinating, mood-lifting noble-elevated scent of tuberose dominates.
Which also guarantees a quality fragrance.
And exactly that scent I have been searching for - and now found.
However, one should like tuberose without ifs and buts. Since the perfume is not so expansive, I will also dare to wear it in everyday life in the company of other people.
