What does Tulipe Noire smell like?

It opens with coriander and bergamot, which give it a fresh, spicy start. In the heart, tuberose and jasmine lead, and the floral side turns creamy and soft. The base of cedar, sandalwood and white musk makes it woody and smooth, with a slightly synthetic sheen running through the accords.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter not far behind, while summer trails. It leans towards evenings and leisure wear. More voters call it feminine, though a good share read it as masculine. Elementals Metal and Ormaie Les Brumes have a close profile.
