PowderyWhat does Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters call it feminine, some classic, and very few see it as masculine. It can be worn to the office, but night and evening wear lean slightly ahead.
The top opens with lilac, rosewood and neroli, and the heart is built from orange blossom, tuberose, white lily, jasmine and gardenia. Carnation and Bourbon vanilla in the base bring sweetness and a little spice. The accords read fresh and green, with a powdery, woody touch and a faint animal undertone.
