What does Tuberosa smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the vote count is small, so treat that as a rough guide. Voters lean towards evening and nights out, with daily wear and the office further behind.

The top opens fresh and floral with ylang-ylang, jasmine and bitter orange blossom. In the heart, tuberose meets black pepper and clove for a spicy warmth. The base of sandalwood, styrax, benzoin and cedar lays down a sweet, powdery, resinous and woody ground, with an animal edge running through it. Anna Zworykina №3 and Dior New Look 1947 have a close profile.
