What does Tulua smell like?

Tulua lasts well and projects moderately, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it is chosen mainly for leisure and daily wear. Masculine and modern votes are tied, with feminine close behind, which fits its unisex build.

The citrus leads at first, then milk ice cream and amber add a creamy, sweet softness while jasmine and magnolia carry the floral side. In the base, cedar, vetiver and ambergris dry the sweetness down onto a clean, woody floor. The overall impression is fresh, fruity and slightly synthetic. Xerjoff Erba Pura and Xerjoff Erba Gold have a close profile.
