Infusion de Tubereuse

I am amazed to see so many negative reviews. This is lovely! I went to the department store to do some retail therapy as a pick-me-up, and although I will admit that I was determined to buy a new perfume, this one beat all the others hands down. It's not like anything else I have smelled before. The only thing remotely like it in my opinion, is Forever and Ever Dior, and the Dolce and Gabbana limited edition fragrance (purple), Rue de la Fortune. Infusion de Tubereuse doesn't smell like Tuberose. Well, in fact I have never smelled a tuberose flower, but it does not smell like other scents that are supposed to have tuberose in them, or be tuberose soliflores - like Jo Malone Tuberose - which to me smells sickly sweet. This is nothing like that. Infusion de Tubereuse is mauve - if one may assign a colour to the smelling experience. I would describe it as light, soft and floral. But if you were to ask for names I would say... maybe violet, lilac and something fruity, purple grapes. I never would have picked blood orange or petit-grain! This is an incredibly pleasant, unique, soft fragrance. And it definitely smells expensive - a Prada child fully.

This is very much like "Infusion de Iris" especially in the drydown phase. Infusion de Iris is like a grey wool, no ruffles, modern, well-tailored skirt suit. The Infusion de Tuberose is like that same suit with a small sparkly flower pin on the lapel; just a little bit of femininity. I smell the tuberose in the beginning & then it fades within the hour to a gentle flower scent; it's still there but it's very close to the skin. The scent really goes to the same powdery "Iris" scent with just that hint of the flower. I would really like more tuberose and flowers to make this stand out. This Tuberose version lasts just slightly longer on my skin than the Iris but just a smidge; maybe 3 hours. Sillage is very close to the skin.

Someone here described this as smelling like a meadow and not only do I think it's accurate, but I love it. The petitgrain lends a nice green layer to the scent and the tuberose is creamy and powdery. I do get a little citrus from the blood orange, and I have to assume that the rest of what I'm getting is the labdanum since I'm not terribly familiar wit that note. If so, it blends in very well and does smell like a meadow. :) I was nicely surprised. I thought I had smelled almost every variation of white flower fragrance around and this is unique and charming, classy and fresh.

I love this one. A blind buy after trying Fleur d Oranger and reading the reviews here, then seeing this greatly discounted. At the first spray I thought this smells just like Jungle Gardenia from millenia ago that's come back again, oh no! But then something like magic happened and the edges rounded; probably the blood orange and petit grain peeking in. It smells well done to me. My only objection is after 4 hours it was ending and at 6 hours it was gone. Glad I didn't pay full price. Pretty bottle too.

i'm in love with it. very light and transparent. does anyone have the memory of the distinct smell of a new doll? something about the plastic/rubber inside a cardboard box that hasn't been yet touched by grease or even air... maybe the same smell of the inside of the doll after you've just ripped its head off. :) on my skin, this fragrance is like a new doll + tuberose. and i love tuberose. couldn't help but loving this infusion. doesn't last long though...
