Fougere Emeraude

In typical Les Indemodables style, the perfume is misnamed. It's not a fougere, nor does it have anything to do with Emeraude, the 1921 legendary classic from Coty. Emeraude translates to emerald in English, and since gems do not have a smell we must presume it was named for the color. Coty's Emeraude was so named for this reason, as it was meant to evoke a vision of an emerald green fern, and became modern perfumery's first fougere (trans. fern). Aside from the green blast of the top notes, there really isn't anything else that is green/emerald about Fougere Emeraude, little alone fern like, so, we'll start there, with the only part of the perfume that is green. The opening accord is a blast, a big one. You get an effect of hesperidics without getting any actual hesperidic notes: there is a sourness and piquancy to the opening that tickles the nose in the way citrus would, but it's vividly green. Camphoraceous and soapy sage and lavender amplify the naturally sweet green pepper type note that usually hovers over the top of a tuberose accord. LI has taken that green note of tuberose and turned it up to 11. It's incredibly striking, if only for a few minutes when the only green/emerald/vaguely-fougere type notes of this perfume give way, fully and completely, to the yellow florals of mimosa and the sweet and creamy florals of tuberose. Within 30 minutes or so these notes are filled in and rounded out by an earthy vanillic tonka bean. Fougere Emeraude then spends a significant amount of time undulating back and forth between these creamy, sweet, white, and heady floral notes and the vanillics; the golden yellows of mimosa mostly playing the role of glue between the floralcy of what used to be the lavender note to the sweet earthy vanillics of the tonka. I smell Fougere Emeraude on the back of my hand, and then immediately go to smell it on my forearm, and it smells different: on the back of my hand it smells of "tuberose", but then on my forearm I get a lot more vanillics. A few minutes later I smell both sections of skin again, and I get something different - maybe a touch more mimosa and lavender type florals and heady tuberose notes, and on the other sections of a sweet, creamy, and earthy vanilla like that of a pudding or creme brulee. For the first half of FE's life, it's an incredibly pretty deconstructed tuberose; it's tuberose without really ever being tuberose. It's in the dry down where I remain a little unsure, since, as time passes, it leans heavier and heavier into the creamy, vanillic sweetness that makes the whole of the experience seem more like a gourmand perfume with a significant floral theme far more than anything of the fougere genre. The vanillic gourmand is one of my touchiest and least liked categories, so while I don't have a natural affinity for this genre, leave it to Les Indemodables to present one that I happily credit with exception. The materials in FE are absolutely sublime, as one would expect of Les Indemodables; their quality and richness keep the Pulverails' reputation well-intact. But, if you're hoping for an actual fougere, either of a cologne style, or even one of a richer cold-weather-appropriate green and earthy aromatic affair, be warned: Fougere Emeraude is none of those things. This has far more in common with a gourmand or an amber with a significant floral theme than it does anything in the fougere or related genres. Taken on the merits of the quality of the materials and the blending gone into creating this perfume, and for the very unique way in which it presents tuberose to us, I absolutely love it. It's a gorgeous piece of work, even and especially for one that's having an identity crisis.

I went through every drop of my sample (rougthly 2.5ml) to try to understand this composition that to my humbe opinion seems to work very well in summer: there is a certain vacation-relaxation vibes that emanate through it. The idea is ingenous: take the most "masculine" within the fragrance genres - fougere - and makes it heart with one of the most "feminime" of flowers - tubereuse. Now, the idea of using tubereuse in a "masculine" construction is not new; we can point out the interesting Savile Row, Richard James where the aromatic, zesty, and spicy opening is followed by a heart of tuberouse laced with lavender. But what makes Fougere Emeraude unique is the quality of raw material and the beautiful blending. A blendong so well done that isolating the tubereuse becomes quite an enterprise. It opens with a tubereuse that has nothing to do with Fracas: it is crisp, fresh, sweet, and green-tinted. This greeness is enhaced by a good amount of clary sage (again Les Indemodables is paying homage to its Alpine origin territory). It is fainlty soapy, very herbaceous and refreshing. The most gorgeous part is when a muscular lavender, smelling both floral and aromatic, barrels its way onto center stage, seizing the now herbal tuberose and giving it a spin. Within minutes, mimosa will join the party; it is replete with sweet yellow pollen and a little bit creamy. I am surronded by a cloud of green, white at purple that is voluminous and robust up close, but sheer and light from afar. This is elegance! I was lucky enough to smell the materials even if only in a bottler; the tubereuse alcholat is indeed very green, but what I really (and I mean really enjoy) is the lavender. In Fougere Emeraude, the lavender smells like the fresh, quietly sweet flowers growing in a meadow. The material smells predominantly floral in nature and does not posses any of the aggressive pungency of the dried lavender sachets. The mixing of the herbaceous and floral aspect is a study in contrast that renders the scent profile extremely interesting. The tonka bean from Venezuela imparts that vanillic smothness that I usually like. Follom me on IG @alexolympia6

I truly love this potion. What an amazing tuberose and mimosa that also succeeds at being one of the most bearable tuberose and mimosa scents I've smelled. By all accounts, I should hate this one knowing those notes of tuberose and mimosa in other fragrances have never worked on my skin and have always assaulted me like cheap hotel soap or makeup powder being propelled up my nose. But Fougère Emeraude has charmed me like no other. To me this does not wear like a fougère though - maybe the brand is trying to be artistic with the name here - but after this I'm all for accepting the new direction. The Fougère is typically referenced as a genre or olfactive family that is reserved for males where the characteristics of green and brown, leafy and woody materials are displayed like pine resins, cedar, sandalwoods, ambers, vetiver, coriander, cardamom, cinnamon, carnation, geranium, anise, peppers, as well as herbs such as lavender, rosemary, basil, mint, thyme, sage and tarragon. The typical notes that indicate the backbone of a Fougère being a creamy sandalwood and/or a soapy lavender on a pedestal of coumarin or tonka bean. But Fougère Emeraude is bent on entertaining the looseness of identity in smell and semantics by throwing something controversial into the mix: White and Yellow florals. What this scent encapsulates is an expensive hotel spa experience where a hot water bath has just been run for me. This scent is the expensive hotel branded bath soap and shower gels made of real natural essentials that are the stars of my bath. I smell a fantasy of healthy, bright, sharp, flowers and soapy sweetness in steamy air. I am on holiday, and I can only afford this experience once this year so I indulge in a long endless soak and let all my thoughts await me on the towel only a reach away... 🧼 🌸 10/10

I am adding another review now that I used quite a bit of my full bottle. Part of the first quartet released by Les Indemodables, Fougere Emeraude is an attempt to subvert the classical masculine fougere structure. It a scent where an incredible creative work has been put into. The fougere element are all there: the herbaceous and lavender opening and the tonka-vanillin dry down, but the floral heart is not about geranium, but about a green camphoraceous tuberose softened by a hint of dusty pollen replete mimosa; soft, but sour; dusty, but floral; comforting, but unusual. Let me try to explain it better. The opening is a gorgeous green, GREEN and not coconutty - tuberose which greeness is elevated by the usual @atelier_francais_des_matieres 's clary sage: a hint of soapyness, a faint leathery undertone, and a tons of herbal nunaces. Soon this tuberose laced with clary sage is siezed by a muscular lavender...and what lavender! Herbal and dusty, but also very floral. The floral component seems to gain territory once the mimosa comes into play: sweet and yellow pollen, creamy and ivory. What a surprising touch that shifts me away from the classical fougere territory. In the meantime, the lavender with its floral aspect becomes more prominent and so does an added "sweetness" from the base; bear in mind, that sweetness is a relative term here, as the scent still retains its herbal and aromatic DNA; only now it is less prominent. In the drydown a tonka which is quite vanillic and without comunarin reinforces the base adding the feeling of dusty powderness below the floral bouquet made of tuberose essentially and a hint of lavender, the mimosa being disappeared.

This is absolutely stunning! *eyes wide open, full agape* If you're into French perfumery, this is for you. If you enjoy fragrances like Sultan Vetiver (esp in the late dry down), this also is for you. If you like long lasting, discreet fragrances, with a distinct, manly and classy appeal: THIS is for you, my friend. To use tuberose in this way is just genius. Due to Tubéreuse criminelle and now this, I am currently on a tuberose kick and will definitely be buying both: Odor 93 (Meo Fusciuni) and the recently announced, Tubéreuse Astrale (Maison Crivelli). Just when I felt I was content with what I own, in comes something creative and new (to my nose) and just reinvigorates my passion. In any event, I will be selling a good chunk of my fragrances (outside of my custom shelves on Fragrantica). If I can get rid of about 100, I will be acquiring everything from my "want" list and, from that point forward, focus only on rare notes that are done well. I just have to stop being lazy and post them on somebody's site. Until next time... UPDATE: This thing thrives in balmy, wet, weather

The tuberose in Fougère Émeraude reminds me of Ginevra de Benci by Leonardo da Vinci. Cold, detached, on the surface or maybe even deep down virtuous. Now instead of the sprig of juniper in Leonardo's masterpiece stick in a sprig of lavender and sage and cut out the laurel and put some mimosa instead. There you have the frag. fougère scents are all reminiscent of cool, calm collected personalities to me with some idiosyncrasies depending on the scent. This fougère floral scent is all that but oozing nonchalant sensuality at the same time. Do I want it boy. I think I should stop buying redundant stuff and save for this gem. Ps: the lavenderesque fresh and green woody accord in the drydown of this reminds me of Paris-Édimbourg by Chanel. Add some distant tuberose to that mix and you will have a rough idea of how this smells like as it dries down. However the opening was aromatic and floral.

Reviewing a sample from 2024. Fougere Emeraude was launched in 2016. A unique soft herbal floral allowing for a unisex tuberose. This opens with dry bitter lavender and clary sage followed by Indian tuberose and moroccan mimosa. The lavender and sage balance the tuberose which is green, creamy and soft. Mimosa adds more greenness and a slight woody base along with the Venezuelan tonka bean. This is not a tuberose bomb. No sweetness ; a touch of powder. Quality- excellent Unisex Performance- stays close; it could do with better diffusion/sillage , very good longevity Beautiful and elegant clean tuberose on a bed of lavender and sage. Subtle enough to be the perfect skin scent. Although typically I don't care for loud scents, I would personally like this fragrance as many others from Less indemodables to be a bit more intense with better sillage. 8.5/10

This one is another wonderful perfume from this amazing brand. High quality raw materials and a classic approach to one of the oldest Olfactive families around, with the surprising use of tuberose absolute in heavy doses to add the oomph factor to the (un)usual fougére. The most sensual Flower of them all is brought upon our skin on the wings of a breezy, most refined lavender to ever grace our nose, a dazzling, electrifying composition, assertive yet welcoming, brings to mind the classic vintage barberhop vibes of Fabergé's Brut33 (well, a most luxurious version of it, actually) embellished by the dewy and earthy-green facets of tuberose absolute. I can immagine myself wearing this on a sunny morning, late springtime, to face the day with a smile on my face. Beautiful! P.S. this one goes straight intorno my wishlist!

A surprise! This is not at all what you expect when you see the word fougère. Yes this has freshness and a metallic touch from the light, aromatic lavender and the clary sage but the main accord is something soft, cool, textured and quietly perfumey that I struggled to pin down in a blind test. Mint and rosewood? Violet and labdanum? Not quite. It's immediately interesting, unexpected and a little arousing! Is there an animal in here? It's tuberose! But not cloying or indolic or even particularly floral. As light as a breeze, almost green. And the soft, grainy chill of mimosa mixed with tonka, yes! A hint of bitter tea from the clary sage restraining the flowers. This is genius. A beautiful, fresh, semi-floral, spring-time fougère. Gentle and un-gendered. Quietly original and highly recommended.

Les Indemodables Fougere Emeraude (2016) - tuberose lavender - @odorescence Has an interesting career spanning over 20 years focusing on innovation & r&d within the fragrance industry. Previously from Firmenich, she is an expert in sourcing & extracting new fragrances from raw materials and a mentor at @isipcaparis . Her perfumes have a sense of minimalism to them - letting the ingredients speak for themselves. But, she is able to make it so nuanced and elegant. Take for example, this unique fougere accord with Tuberose mixed with Lavender & Clary Sage. I thought it would be a floral bomb, but it’s polite. Soapy, camphorated, herbal yet creamy. A great Fougere and quite versatile & universal.

Another pleasant and creative fragrance by Les Indemodables, though not one I feel any urge to rush out and buy. Opens with a gorgeous, sunny tuberose that hangs around for a few hours. In the dry down, the metallic lavender and very tasteful dose of tonka/coumarin makes for a familiar, cool fougere. Very dry, not sweet. Along with the listed notes, I get vetiver and mandarin orange. A distinctly masculine structure, but I think Fougere Emeraude is totally wearable for a woman. Winter & Spring. 4/5 PS: reminds me a lot of Grey Flannel.

I rocked this all day, the opening is absolutely stunning. I don’t think I’ve ever smelled Tuberose like Fougere Emeraude: she’s a soapy, herbal stunner.....even a little powdery note due to the addition of mimosa. I love it but need to test it in warmer weather. I had to spray several times throughout the day as the sent dissipates in chilly weather. Still, so fricking impressive. I can’t wait to try Fougere Emeraude in warmer temps. This brand is knocking my socks off.

This one is perfect. I've tried all collection and after a whole year of testing I think this is the one everyone should talk about. The real gem is Fougere Emeraude, not Vanille Havane. But no one would know about Les Indemodables without Vanille Havane's hipe so it's a good thing. Most tuberose scents are for women, but this one doesn't feel like that. Very harsh opening but let it settle. One spray is enough.

This is a remarkable fragrance... I mean, Whoa... I often dislike tuberose - almost always, for myself - but here, this is perfection. Truly impressive & beautiful. Hard to put into words, honestly. Prominent tuberose in a fougere, & it works so well. It smells luxurious & expensive... Clearly top-notch perfumery, no doubt about it. Good chance this turns into a FB!

یه تشابه های کوچکی با کارنال فلاور داره ولی اصلا مشابه هم نیستند کارنال فلاور یه عطر کاملا گلی با محور توبروز(گل مریم) هست اگر نگیم که فقط یه گل مریم هست ولی این یه فوژر هست که با یه تاجی از گل مریم یکی از بهترین فوژرهایی که تا حالا تست داشتم و به خاطر کیفیت موادش بسیار متفاوت با همشون، کیفیتی که خیلی راحت حس میشه 10 از 10

I don't like fougeres. I HATE clean/soapy scents. But I do LOVE tuberose. This is definitely a fougere, it's even a little bit clean/soapy, and it's not even that much tuberose....but I'm crazy about it. This is the fabric softener scent of my dreams that I thought I didn't want but never knew I needed.

What doesn't seem to fit together, ultimately fits beautifully: a very green tuberose, lavender and coumarin. Carnal Flower meets Rive Gauche p.H. and they get along so well that they bear a child together. The ingredients are of the highest quality and you can smell it. Very nice!

Incredibly beautiful and unique in the floral genre. To me, this is mostly powdery mimosa with a light lavender twist that blends beautifully to create a new identity. As it dries down it loses what I loved. The powdery mimosa disappears and the herbal notes take over.

Very aromatic, green, tart, not sweet. Not the friendliest tuberose, but not nearly as vicious as Naomi Goodsir Nuit de Bakélite. Slightly scratchy, but playful, not aggressive. One of my favorite scents of this brand. But for this money? No.

Extraordinary. A brilliant use of florals on a fougere base. It shouldn’t work but here we are. Perfection.

Les Indemodables can do no wrong in my eyes. They are spectacularly good fragrances, creative, transparent on the amount of naturals used and fascinating from a technical point of view on just how the perfumers bring them out. The compositions are original, they don't release too much or spunk free bottles away on tiresome, social media, gurus and reviewers etc... I love them. The seem French, arrogantly puffing on a Galosises and not giving a merd what you think! They are here to be artisits and create beauty. All that good stuff. But I don't really like this one as such. haha However it's still BRILLIANT!!! The opening is orange blossom, a spectacular orange blossom accord full of petitgrain, mutating into a more creamy/waxy floral but light on it's feet an with the 'fougere' bit threatening to rumble just beneath the surface. If this was just a nice Orange blossom, I'd be like okay, it's a safe pass fragrance but never with this brand, they don't allow mediocre to slip through, even their tropes are fresh and new, Musk, I mean how exciting can a musk be? Musc des sables? Just try it! Anyway then develops a smell of minty, resinousness, I described as white camphor/elemi/frankinsense/cypress/eucalyptus/atlas cedar...Those vibes. Mix this with the white floral effect and petetgrain and there you have something highly original and then there's warmth of fougere vibes setting it perfectly as this herbal, floral melting pot! So looking at the notes here I can see that clary sage also has these properties of sharp and mild camphor as does some lavender sometimes. Even Tuberose has a minty quality and the heft of the midrif combined with petitgrain (Which I feel is definitely here as well as orange or tangerine) will promote an orange blossom smell, I reported in the opening. This is a strange fragrance and not a typical fougere but still fits the character of one in some strange sense. I need more time with it because I really started to fall for it as it dried down.

This came as part of a sample set and as I don’t particularly like lavender (smells too potpourri for me) I ignored this one. Finally am wearing it and I’m confused that the note pyramid doesn’t include vetiver because I swear that it’s strongly present in the opening but perhaps that is a ‘wet’ sage? Thankfully the moldy roots facet of the sage (or maybe vetiver) dissipates and not long afterwards in swoops a green, lush, musky tuberose tempered by the suggestion of lavender. I can’t say that mimosa has appeared enough for my nose to go, “oh yes powdery sweet mimosa, there ya be” but I can’t argue it’s not there either ... edit, as it turns out I definitely get mimosa in the far drydown, and on my second wearing. This one, and MEM by Bogue (lavender masked by heavy ylang yellow flower + ethyl maltol yumminess) are my current two favorite lavender fragrances. Counter-intuitively, this seems like a perfect muggy weather Spring-Summer scent although lavender (the plant) generally blooms best in Autumn. Buying a full bottle!

I've been badly behind on my Christmas shopping this year, but at least I've managed to discover a few new independent houses I didn't know before. Les Indémodables is one of them. I haven't had time to consider all of them yet, but so far Fougère Emeraude is one that I'm really liking. I'm a sucker for a good fougère, and this is most definitely one; it's white floral notes set it apart from the direction a lot of other perfumers might have taken with the form. That said, there is a strong classical foundation that runs through the collection and, that's probably not a surprise given the house's name ("The Timeless Ones"). I love the way the clary sage works in this fragrance and like to think that it has something to do with the fact that they are using a locally-sourced alpine version gathered from this beautiful slopes of this region on the French-Swiss border—the house is based in the historic lakeside city of Annecy—because, whatever the reason, it definitely has a greener, cleaner tone than I would have expected.

This is such an elegant perfume I almost feel bad for not loving it. This brings to mind the bud of a tuberose flower just before it blooms - a seamless blend of green and floral that is like pure silk. And a fougere staring tuberose is a novel take, but is it actually a fougere? Would I identify it as such without the name? Beyond the beautiful lavender, not likely. So as a green floral is it interesting after all? After several wears and much wavering I have to say no - not at these prices. The wow stops at the quality of the ingredients, again and again the combinations are just too restrained to really move me. Performance is fine. I get a solid 8 hours but not much sillage - I wore this heavily today without notice by my partner but it only took a couple of sprays of Fathom V by Beaufort (to compare) to get noticed...apparently I smell evil now...better than nothing.

Green floral fougere. Fresh lavender mixed with pollinic florals, an herbal clary sage, and a faint pop of slightly rindy citrus. The greenness seems to come from the sage at first but once the opening settles, a creamy tuberose kinda comes to the forefront of the scent and it might be that. Moderately soft projection for ~2hr, longevity 4-5hr. Oh, what an interesting twist on a fougere. A tuberose fougere. Rather shares the spotlight with the lavender and really smooths everything out, like a lotion rubbed over all the rougher textures: the mimosa pollen, the aromatic sage, the zesty citrus. While projection isn't amazing on me, I get surprisingly terrible longevity from it.

The fragrance is really "indemodable" (literally not going out of fashion). It does, t belong to any trend on the market. It is Fougere but not like the new excellent Tom Ford's Fougeres though it has some similarities. It is more floral than what you would expect from a Fougere and this comes from the excellent tuberose essence in it. It reminded me slightly of the surprising for the time of the 90s "Insense" by Givenchy for men. That unusual green aromatic floral accord but without the blackberry note. The materials used are very good quality which it seems is something typical for this relatively new French perfume house. Interesting.

The tuberose into the fougere structure is interesting. It’s deftly executed with balance between herbs, spices, a lavender heart and a blooming tuberose. Who is it for? Is this a Hillary Clinton pant suit or Ross’s Salmon shirt from Friends? Olivier Polge’s Boy on the other hand had was more of an intersection of masculinity and femininity through gently weaving florals into the fougere. This is more avant garde, while Boy was more transitional and easier to wear partly due to being less polarizing. Not an endorsement of Chanel in anyway or form.

Fougère Emeraude opens like a shout-out to the golden age of fem chypres that takes a sudden barbershop segueway towards a splendid powdery makeover, merely prettying up as a phantom fern in spirited maquillage in its end result... Interesting top note of a delightful stripped tuberose beaten down by a lavande fix, a mimosa rub, a fine tasty sage nuanced in a veneer of tonka that collectively holds down as a sexy heel of Brut Original in floral wear. Imagine that!

I tried this as I was exploring tuberose notes. This is an interesting tuberose. The tuberose itself is a bit bubblegummy to me. Hard to pick out other individual notes, but the overall impression for me is some hyper-modern, androgynous tuberose. Kind of a space-age perfume. I do detect some of the woody-amber aromachemicals that are popular in modern niche perfumes. I like it and find it pleasant and interesting and fairly easy to wear.

After smelling this on skin for about 2 hours I just realized what this is similar to, not exactly the same but if u take away the tobacco and sweetness in jazz club, u got the powdery woody note exact same as jazz club. Could say it’s a freshened up version suitable for a signature scent

Beautifully floral. White floral. I lose the lavender in the prominence of the Tuberose. A bit of musk. The sage? Fairly light sillage for LI. 4-5 hours length. Linear and simple. More feminine but wearable by all.

Elegant tuberose. Not at all what I expected from the name. I am not a tuberose fan but I still find it wearable. It is understated and gender neutral. I can see a lot of people enjoying this one.

The only perfume that made me want to rethink my bias against lavender. The use of high quality ingredients is so visible here. Such a fine creation.

Fougere Emeraude is an interesting and paradoxical scent I find myself perplexed by, but I don’t particularly enjoy it. To call it a fougere is strange when it categorically isn’t, however the ‘Emeraude’ or ‘Emerald’ aspect tracks as it’s particularly green. Initially it opens with this bitter-green herbal facet, which is dry and masculine with a grassy sharpness. The tuberose acts as an almost honied, narcotic musk which is at once sweet and chewy, yet contrasted by the persistence of this herbaceous edge. It smells like a complete and thought-out creation, but I feel these two opposing scent profiles clash too much. It’s an interesting contemporary take on the ‘Fougère’ idea but that doesn’t mean it is one. I’m not a fan.

I find that the lavender really tames the tuberose a lot. Tuberose runs the risk of coming across UBER girly, which is not usually a problem, it's just that it smells like teenage body spray kinda stuff (which is great at a particular point in time), and so I'm really getting how refrained the tuberose really is here. There is some raw, unprocessed 'green' in the back, not much, but enough for me to feel it, and it works with the other components quite well, I'm just not feeling this for 'me' reasons. It's too polite. Not enough weird or unique here. This smells great, I really mean that. This brand and the line has generally been quite good, it's just not tapping into what I look for in a scent...

I am not going to lie, the word 'fougere' usually leaves me cold...but when I smelled this fragrant but not-too-sweet tuberose tamed by the lavender, it immediately gained my attention. It's a quite unique combination, unexpected, given the name. Unfortunately, as it dries down, it starts to make sense. It becomes more masculine, more herbal, soapy clean and aromatic. More fougere. I have the feeling Les Indemodables lean more masculine, maybe it's time to pass the samples to my husband...

A clean glue of green, mentholated, medicinal tuberose. With light shades of lavender, mimosa, tonka and clary sage with a retro touch. I collect memories of opening toothpaste. The development is an unusual fougerie where the notes that support the tuberose are also clear, fluid, loose. In the long evergreen finish, the tuberose softens a bit into a frosted and mentholated sugared almond while remaining pulsating and alive for a long time. Sliding.

I think tuberose is very prominent and very much leaning towards being a fragrance for women. I just don't think I can ever wear this. I put it on my wrist and thought it was so far from my personality that I never even applied the full sample. Somewhat reminiscent of Taylor of Bond Street Eton College, but more feminine leaning.

6/10 A little bit too feminine for my taste but it's still quite nice. Tuberose isn't a white floral that I normally gravitate towards but I feel like it works well in this.

I wonder how long do people need to test a fragrance I personally give it a couple of chances in different settings Such as weather and time as well as location But it shouldn’t take me very long to decide a fragrance is for me Wasting weeks in my short life is just unacceptable for me A bottle of fragrance takes between 700 sprays to 1500 depending on the size and if you spray 5 to 10 times a day that means you won’t have much to try in your lifetime Coming back to this atrocity I hate it Sour tuberose is not acceptable to my nose Don’t waste time on something you can’t stomach Give it a chance and move on

I disliked this when I first tried this several months ago. I retried it recently on a blotter and it's growing on me but it's starting to give me a headache. I thought it smelled like a modernized older lady type perfume. After reading the reviews I think maybe I don't like the hints of masculine? I would definitely put it in the spicy lavender clean fragrance category.

I do not like it. It smells like a freshly cut meadow: you got grass, lavender, sage, a bit of thyme, tea leaves, lime, sharp icy anise. Overall a medieval apothecary full of herbs together with an alcohol, ready for distillation. I would like to smell it in that apothecary, it is appropriate there. But not on any person.

#713 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This is the eighth Les Indemodables fragrance I've tried. I've loved the first seven, but this one is a complete failure for me. So floral it's like being face down in a bucket of Mrs. Meyer's Lavender Laundry Detergent. It's repellant. I'm shocked they let this mess out of the lab. Beyond beast mode. It's something you'd give grandma to cover up the smell of a full adult diaper. Hard pass.

This is an aromatic floral fragrance around the main note of tuberose. The fragrance has a high amount of tuberose oil (15%). Tuberose is not a favorite note like vanilla, rose, or citrus, ... And it's interesting to create a fragrance with this high dose of Tuberose. It is introduced as fougere, but it does not have citrus, vetiver, or oakmoss commonly used in fougere fragrance. But it definitely has the aromatic character of the fougere especially because of the clary sage note here. As the natural essential oil used in the fragrance, it is more complex, and has depth and some dirtiness and oily aspects of the natural ingredient, which is a positive point for the fragrance. Although it has a high amount of tuberose, the fragrance is totally unisex because the floral aspect of the tuberose is balanced with the aromatic and more masculine note of lavender and the clary sage. 7.5/10

The more I wear it, the more it reminds me of Nasomatto's Nudiflorum, only if that one was created around tuberose. It has the same woody-musky character, like imagine you wore nudiflorum to bed and in the morning sprayed a tuberose fragrance on top. Smells stunning. In the opening, it’s a bitter-indolic yet creamy tuberose covered in lavender dust. Once warmed up, it becomes similar to the one in Malle’s Carnal Flower, but much creamier and oilier, and not as vegetal. Also, while the green notes in CF stay throughout the composition, here they vanish after the opening, together with the dusty lavender. overall, this tuberose is slightly powdery and makeup-like, creamy yet not too sweet. a great alternative for those who find Carnal Flower too green and pungent, this one is much softer and fluffier.

Who thought Tuberose will work with a fougere accord! Fougère Emeraude is really unique and somewhat an artistic fragrance, I believe that some people might find it polarizing. I immediately detect petitgrain in the opening followed by a beautiful classical fougere accord (Lavender and Coumarin, or in this case Tonka absolute with hints of clary sage ), a few minutes later, the rich dense complex creamy slightly green and earthy Indian Tuberose appears, it does smell like the natural absolute and they didn’t try to hide any facets of it or mask it with additional notes to make it more polite, it smells raw if that makes sense. I detect hints of dusty slightly sweet mimosa in the background.The late drydown has patchouli and vetiver. It is neither a typical fougere not a typical floral.

Very floral and strong fragrance that is tuberose heavy and takes some courage to wear with a straight face. So far I'm finding this houses' offerings quite challenging to wear. The materials are great but this has the same thing in the base the other perfumes in this house have; a strong ambroxan-like note that smells rather like a dryer sheet to me...This wears very similarly to Oranger Sirocco (both heavy white floral) and performs just as well. Creative fragrance that I might just need to spend more time with. Will update if needed should my opinions change. Update: Enjoying more...on hot days the tuberose comes across as the freshest clean smell ever with the unmistakable beauty tuberose offers. I wish this was cheaper. It's great but not $250 great for me.

Sprayed before looking at the notes and never would have guessed its tuberose-heavy! Once i looked it up, it made sense though. Im just used to armani my way and givenchy l'interdit, whereas this tuberose is a different world, and so much less syrupy sweet. I like masculine frags only, and I'd wear this. A bit "rich" though, it has a dense potency to it while still being diffuse. Very appropriate for an extrait, but interesting for this scent profile which is typically lighter. I'd probably prefer an edt/edp version of this. EDIT: not coming off as dense as it was previously, I wish the spice from the opening remained, as the drydown goes more floral heavy, but this is one of the best masculine florals that i've experienced. Really Really nice.
