What does Venus in Tuberose smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it leaves a clear trail where it is sprayed without filling a room. The vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It does not lean masculine or feminine, and its fresh, sweet character suits either.
Tuberose and hibiscus form the floral backbone, while raspberry ice cream and cream soda add a creamy, gourmand sweetness. Grass and lime zest balance that sweetness with a green, fresh line. The accords also include a synthetic note, so it reads as a bright, fruity floral rather than a natural bouquet.
