Tuberose lovers you must rejoice and try this. This blue liquid is magic tuberose. When applied theblue disappears and leaves you with a wonderfully striking tuberose perfume. I smell other notes - orange blossom and ylang ylang but it is predominately a tuberose perfume. A little is all you need and this will last for a long time. So altohugh the initial outgoings are expensive, the little bottle will last some time.

For some reason Blue reminds me of the Hilary Swank role in the Film Black Dahlia.It reminds me of a nymphoniac that has a bag of dirty and dangerous secrets.Ok maybe i'm exaggerating a bit But the aggresivness of it doesn't help me to think otherwise.This is TUBEROSE.And i like tuberose,and it's fantastic that it has sillage though the staying power is fairly average on me.When the top notes ease a light refreshing orange emerges mingled with a bit of deep dry wood and the ylan-ylang is also recognisable in the end stages.The tuberose never fades but takes a step back for the scent to develop.This is gorgeous stuff,especially if you love tuberose but i'm not very fond of the fact that this is an oil and i find it strange for a scent so powerful not to have reasonable steying power.

Whooooooa Nelly! This is some big white floral we got here! I sniffed this in the container at Scentbar and thought it smelled fresh and light, so I got a sample. I know, I know, the intense blue color should have given me a clue that this was no light, clean sort of smell, but whatever. So last night, I dabbed it on both wrists and went off to work. First of all, my wrists are still blue. Second, NOT a work-friendly scent. Third, I used to like tuberose! My head is pounding and I'm a bit nauseous and if I scrub my wrists any more, they're gonna start to bleed! I now feel safe saying this is not a light fresh floral and I should have known better.

Tuberose fans, this is your holy grail. You won't find a richer, truer, creamier rendition anywhere else --so three-dimensional it's like biting into the flower's heart instead of just sniffing the petals. Blu is tinted the deep aquamarine of the sea of Capri, and it goes on a rather frightening inky blue, but as the fragrance melts into your skin, so does the color. (I wouldn't be so rash as to apply it on my clothes, though.) Other notes are listed, such as orange, sandalwood and ylang-ylang, but they don't surface at all, to my nose. From beginning to end, all I get is tuberose absolute. This baby makes all other pretenders seem pale and watery by comparison. Those not afraid of this "aggressive" flower (as Acampora himself puts it) will have quite a tool of seduction in their hands.
