CreamyWhat does Tubéreuse Impériale (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with Egyptian geranium and pink pepper, fresh and lightly spiced. In the heart, Indian tuberose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and iris form a rounded floral, with the powdery, creamy side leading. In the base, Bourbon vanilla, sandalwood and benzoin sweeten and soften it.
Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, and it leans towards leisure, night out and daily wear. It is unisex, though most voters read it as feminine. Isabey Prends-moi and The Merchant Of Venice Imperial Emerald have a close profile.
