Contemporary Tuberose

It opens heavenly! Summery sunscreen-like expensive smelling tuberose. I was instantly addicted and rushed to buy another bottle. When I sampled a spray, I initially strongly could smell cashmeran in the dry down, and wasn’t crazy about that note. If you're not a cashmeran fan, you might want to pass on this. After giving this a full proper “wear,” I felt it really reminded me of Marfa by Memo Paris, which is one of many tuberose scents in my collection. Only this is sweeter, “prettier” and more feminine, and lacks the hay and green notes in Marfa that make it quirky. This has a soft carnal creamy tuberose more similar to Lys 41 (though this doesn't quite smell like that, it isn't a dupe), not that sharp soapy shampoo tuberose like in Bora Bora, La Vie La Mort, JPG Fragile, etc. Not like Fracas or Gucci Bloom either. I picked up a sample of Tubéreuse Vertigineuse by Molinard as it came up in the reminds me of section here and IMO it's a radically different fragrance with little to nothing in common with this one. This is warm, sweet, summery, youthful. It’s musky in that musky-honey way like Marfa and Scandal by Night are. TV is indolic, spicy, mature, and seems more of a winter scent, it really clashed with my chemistry. Contemporary Tuberose is great for warm weather and sunshine. Femme-leaning. More of an intimate sexy scent. A lovely addition to my collection. Great for daytime dates. It seems soft but you can spray a little extra and develop a nice scent bubble. Unfortunately it fades in about 3-4 hrs but that’s about the average for many true tuberose scents in my collection, at least in my climate and with my skin. I blind bought this and it was extremely successfull. It's quite youthful and doesn't come fof as mature on my skin at all. Update- I ended up stocking up on backup bottles of this one. After I realized it reminds me of a prettier Marfa, and remembering how much I paid for my bottle of Marfa compared to the avg price of this on eBay, I’ve just wanted to bathe in this scent all the time and couldn’t pass up the opportunity to stock up!

The Poster Below; "Aqua76xxx" Nailed it. Said it all. It's a Great big perfume for a little tiny price (online). Despite the notes, this can so easily transition into the fall very nicely. P.S. It does "REMIND" me of something. But, I just can't seem to put my finger on it now. When it does. I'll be sure to let you know. Which I'm absolutely sure will be at some random obscure time probably in the middle of the night when I'm going to tinkle in the bathroom, I'll yell it out loud and freak out my entire household at 3:00 am. Lol Anyway. When I think of it. I'll come back and post an addendum.

Wondervalley666 I completely agree that this smells like Marfa. The mid and dry down of Marfa smells like this whole perfume. I get a lot of tuberose in this and it feels summery but it’s thick and heavy so I can’t wear it in the summer and works better in the winter for me. Not as suffocating. I’ve had this for a while now, almost a year. Recently I’ve been mixing it with coco vanille from mancera and it is the most beautiful combination.

This fragrance is gorgeous and exactly as described - intoxicating! Lasts forever... If you want to make a "statement" that is 100% NOT unisex - this is your juice women. This Tuberose, Heliotrope, and Jasmine combo turns into an absolute narcissus oil extract ("Mariposa" brand-type oils that we were able to find in the West Village during the 80's), combined with a peach note! This fragrance is a sex bomb. And totally underrated too!

Aloha! I will start - I will start with a beautiful bottle, a heavy, gold-colored cork, a beautiful label with the Italian name LA PERLA. Smell mmmm ..... that's what I like, the beginning is pretty heavy feel mandarin with jasmine, then there are amyl salicylate, tuberose and heliotrope in the lower notes palpable tonka, cashmere and cedar, the whole after mixing gives something beautiful how to say in Italian "crema di tuberosa" divine powder and cream tuberose from spring to autumn and for the whole year. For me an Italian fairy tale and even unisex for men who like tuberose and flowers, the most. I am delighted with the persistence, each new fragrance is tested on paper and leather here ooo 6 hours max. You can always prank for this we have. It is a nice honor to have it in my collection, another way of the pearl. Grazie Italia. 9/10 very, very rich and long lasting.
