Noix de Tubereuse

A fun and slightly nutty (pun intended) take on tuberose. Is no one else getting nuts? A bit of almond, marzipan and macarons? This is heading into yum-yum-ti-tum gourmand territory, I want to eat it rather than wear it. Powder puff sugar on creamy heliotrope (not listed but I'm getting it, must be the mimosa) and sugared almonds ensconce a pillowy, substantial tuberose. Tonka stonker - yes, powdered violet - yes, honeyed clover, yes and dusty pollen laden mimosa making this a crazy, fun, nutty sweet composition that seems to be about a scrumptious edible tuberose. Posh sweeties for grown up kids. Layers of dusty pink fluffy chiffon. A birthday party perfume. For those looking for a Tuberose soliflore, this is not the place to go, better to come at this from liking playful, powdery, sweet and comfortable compositions. Noix de Tuberose wafts and radiates beautifully in my personal space and keeps partying on my skin long past my bedtime. A fitting image for this perfume is Hermione Granger in that fabulous pink floaty, frilly dress at the Yule ball, she is having a wonderful, head-spinner of a time but is a bit out of her depth and it all ends in tears. But it's going to be ok because her friends are for real. I know it's classified as a floral oriental/amber floral, but I smell this as a very good and interesting floral gourmand, contemporary, but with a classic feel to it. Sillage is moderate/good and longevity great on my skin. Edit: I wore this out on a really chilly January day and it showed itself to be less edible sweet and more floral - soft, rich, creamy tuberose powdered with almond-like heliotrope and mimosa - I really enjoyed it, very comforting, friendly and easy to wear. Edit: I'm addicted - This has become my number 1 for a powder fix - just lovely in chilly weather, I think it will also be wonderful in the Spring - full bottle worthy.

Luca Turin describes this perfume as "bubblegum tuberose" and for me this definition is not appropriate at all. Noix de Tubereuse on my skin develops into a beautiful powdery, melancholic tuberose. We are far from the creamy beauty of Fracas, far from the opulence of Carnal Flower, far from the greenness of Maitre Gantier et Parfumeur Tubereuse. I love Miller Harris's style, she is a master in achieving feelings and sensations as if she had a paintbrush and a colourful palette of watercolours. Watercolours on rice paper, not oil on canvas. Her touch is light but not banal, her strokes are gentle, never harsh. The tuberose here is accompanied by a lovely mimosa that does not want to steal the show but denies a role behind the scenes. Same for the violet. The two modest, shy flowers, accompany the queen on her path, never leaving her, never a step behind but side by side. The result is stunning. The tuberose is made less opulent in gaining softness, gentleness and the mimosa and the violet gain importance with such a royal companion. I would suggest this scent to all who say that they cannot wear tuberose, for those who find Fracas either too strong or too sweet. Noix de Tubereuse is not worse or better, it's different and for me, just like Fracas, it's WONDERFUL

Intelligent peppery mimosa-tuberose that is difficult to grasp and intoxicating through all stages of development. Neither a bubble gum tuberose, or a deep green, wet flower (like Do Son), nor the powerhouse some claim it to be (it does not resemble Fracas or original Poison), but rather a moderately sweet and powdery, slightly boozy, ambery coconot milk vanilla tubereuse that melts into the skin and is both soft and slightly sharp. This makes wearing this perfume an intimate, fascinating experience. On the one hand this perfume feels historic, and old worldy - I am reminded of the last drops of tonics and waters left in art deco bottles from the early 20th century - on the other hand it is an adolescent that make fun of you for taking her so seriously. One of my signature scents. I also experience a little nod to L' Heure Bleue on some days. The perfume is not similar in compostion, but the atmospheric emotion is, and maybe a few ingredients. The Guerlain is described as "a fragrance of bluish dusk and anticipation of night, before the first stars appear in the sky", this one as "a scene of sunset, laying in the fields beneath the flowers and gazing at the sky as it changes colour from orange to pink to purple."

There are days when you take a long bath, you go through the skin routine that you've been skipping for weeks, and give yourself a big hug. Those days when you want to consciously take care of yourself and celebrate your existence, which is a far cry from the usual self-preservation stuff. On such days, I reach for this beauty. It's a floral competition where tuberose and mimosa are neck and neck but in between your nose picks up green ambery honeuesque facets and woodsy powder. There are no aldehides listed in the pyramid, but it feels aldehydic as well, I mean there's an aldehyic zing to it that delivers the lush bouquet prim and proper. I love to sport something simple with this, like a quality timeless cardigan with no dramatic additions. It's really charming. Ps: forgot to say that in the drydown you've got a whole lot of mimosa pollen so mimosa's the winner of the match

LOVE THIS! It is more potent than the average MH and there is no harm in that. It is so rich and maybe a touch vintage. I cant say I think of old ladies when I wear this. This is the fragrance of a woman who knows what she is about and when she walks into a room full of people gets noticed for all the right reasons. Her confidence, her stylishness and uniqueness. It is curious how I keep detecting coconut along with the rich buttery tuberose. I suspect its the combination of the tuberose, tonka and mimosa. Tonka has a definite soft edible sweetness. I am very sensitive to the normally strong tuberose note but this has not induced a migraine. The resins give a warmth, the clover a delicate honeyed sweetness. The orris and violet cool and calm everything so it does not screech. This is definitely a fragrance for night wear. Good longevity and moderate silage.

This is the first Miller Harris perfume I (blind) bought and everything else has been a slight disappointment since this magnificent creation. Its a tuberose, but its a round, cognaccy, tonkay, nutty tuberose with other, top notes added into the string section in the background. Its powerful but soft, its confident but not tough - its like a beautiful piece of cake from an exquisite French patisserie and with every delicious bite you discover more hidden flavours, like a hint of mandarine. This is a perfume I would have liked to have made, it is sophisticated and unselfconscious, unordinary without pretense. Utter delight and a fragrance that deserves more recognition.

Beautiful! I adore all stages of this amazing scent. The sweet, powdery dry down, the chorus of notes dancing in the middle but the first hour is pure heaven! ❤️ I need to exercise some serious self control to keep me from respraying 😂 This is no longer available on the MH website, so I fear it is being discontinued. Stock up while you can! I have my back-up bottle already 😊 EDIT- This bewitching potion has now made it's way onto my top shelf and every time I spray it, I fall a little deeper in love with it ❤️ My stash drawer is getting fuller!

To my nose this fragrance really isn't about the tuberose, the tuberose is just a nuance. The opening is about the very herbal clover and the green mandarin, then as the fragrance progresses it becomes a dusty mimosa, violet, almond, tonka make up powder fragrance. The tuberose is there but not the star of the show. It is a lovely powdery fragrance that while giving a nod to old fashion powdery fragrances of old it is very wearable today. If you like mimosa (which is the floral that is the star in this one) give this one a try.

This opens and goes on perfectly on me, it is a full/rich tuberose followed by sweet and green mimosa, which usually does not work on me, but here it plays a lovely role. I do think that this is similar to Fracas, but let's be honest - it doesn't. In Fracas the tuberose is loud and majestic, here it is more creamy and tropical, more suitable for everyday wear. I actually love this, it smells lovely on me, none of the Miller Harris perfumes I've tried before I've enjoyed, but this is very nice. 9/10

I don't usually say that a fragrance paints a picture, but on first spray and throughout, this evolves an image of a sultry 1940s femme fatale sitting in a dimly lit corner of a smoky bar - almost a Jessica Rabbit sort of thing! It is powdery and floral and the very best sort of classic vintage, with just enough sting to make it incredibly sexy. My partner goes nuts on this, my secret weapon! And as usual with Miller Harris, it has incredible staying power.

I love this for its drydown only. The opening is feminine but the drydown is manly. This perfumes is really polarizingly unisex. The blending is such a fine art. So gorgeous. The tuberose is so controlled that doesnt blast off dominantly like mainstream others. That makes men wear this. And also not animalic, who says that??? Poor nose! Very lasting and sillage. The juice color is so tempting to see. A must have for everyone.

Beautiful floral scent. I say "floral" and not "tuberose centric", because to my nose, tuberose and mimosa play almost equally important parts in the composition of this fragrance. It is a powdery, round, tame floral with quite a substantial nod to the past. It almost reminded me of Farnesiana by Caron, with added amber, a bit nuttier and more dense, but fitting the same audience, imo.

It's soapy and powdery on my skin... maybe it's the mimosa-tonka-violet combo? Anyway, I can see some similarities with Vanderbilt by Gloria Vanderbilt (minus the aldeydhes)! So I like it very much, even if I'm not a big tuberose fan!

So gorgeous.. I was looking for you and now I found you. To me, tuberose and mimosa are prominent in a pleasant combination with the clover. Warm, feminine, enticing. The perfect autumn scent :).

I seem to love tuberose scents and they seem to love me lol. This seems to last and last and last, very comforting, smells a bit fluffy and pink if you know what I mean but in a nice way lol

The tuberose here is splendid, gentle and elegant. Charming ambery sweet scent. Nothing really more to add - perfection. The frag has a moderate sillage, which makes it a nice office scent.

Nobody else feel it has fig in it? And very obvious fig . Stunningly beautiful! My absolute can't do without!

so beautiful scent !!! pure clean tuberose

I get mostly mimosa from this. Contrary to the name, the tuberose is in the background and not a feature of the scent. This is more a mixed floral bouquet with mimosa being the strongest note. Pretty, but not what I expected though I might just wind up buying this because it is a gorgeous mimosa dominant perfume that smells very natural. It's as if I am smelling a Mimosa tree in full bloom. 11/8/25 - Stumbled across a more than half full 100ml. bottle of the original vintage version (the bottle design is different), for $30 bucks with free ship from someone decluttering. What luck! Someone else is selling the same 100ml. version for $399. That is nutz! 🤪 If there is a change in fragrance as there is in bottle design, I'll update this review. Maybe I'll get the tuberose more than I do now. 11/14 - Received the half full bottle and it is so different from the later bottle I tried that there is no doubt in my mind that this scent has gone through a reformulation. Besides the juice being much darker, which I could attribute to age, it is also much smoother. Contrary to my initial reaction that this was more a mimosa scent than a tuberose scent, the opposite is actually true and now the name of this fragrance makes sense. This is mostly tuberose with mimosa playing a supporting role. Also, in the newer version there was a little bit of a sharpness riding underneath, though not annoying, that I am not getting here at all. It actually smells somewhat different from the reform, a little bit classic whereas the newer version is more contemporary. I happen to like both versions and would consider buying the reformulation in the future should I run across a bottle at a good price, as I really like the heavy mimosa in that.

Disclaimer: I believe I am allergic to tuberose and I have never liked tuberose, certainly not in the 80s and 90s when I first had contact with tuberose-heavy perfumes. Tuberose causes sinus inflammation (nose pain, itch) and headache in me. But it's the 2020s and tuberose is all the rage, so of course I have been exploring my limits and pushing the boundaries of what I can wear. Entrer Noix de Tubereuse. The allergy: I struggle for 20 mins if spayed on clothes, 10 mins if sprayed on skin. So I agree with pretty much all reviews before me stating the the heady tuberose subsides after the first minutes. It is actually wearable for me after that (I would never spray my neck though). The scent: It smells like the 90s to me, I would not find this a tuberose with a modern twist. It reminds me of something from that time. And no, it is not vintage smelling or "classy" smelling. It is slightly retro, but not necessarily out of style. As many before me have mentioned, it gets mellow, smooth, powdery, a tad sweet and slightly floral in the dry down. For me, the lingering scent is mostly about a mimosa-amber-vanilla accord, with violet and tonka being clearly there. This is, in my opinion, yet another introspective scent by Miller Harris, it is comforting, intriguing, and something one would easily get addicted to. This is one we would wear for ourselves. Who: I'd say the person who wears this is quite sensitive, calm, sweet, and for some reason feels a bit different from others. I want to meet this person and hug them. Final thought: It is lovely. Simply adorable. One of those cannot-get-my-nose-out-of-it kind of scents.
