Some tuberoses hate me...as much as I try to work out some sort of relationship, there seems to remain this harshness between us. It's just that it can be so pushy and abrasive on me, like a...

Vicks, Denorex... let me add Windex. That's what the top notes of Tubereuse Criminelle reminded my husband of. Personally, I swooned over this scent when it was subtly applied. When I was more...

I am so sad...I wanted to like this SO bad, but it smells like medicine on me and in the bottle, I might even agree with a previous reviewer that it's similar to a toilet bowl cleaner.

What a bizarre fragrance. Opens with a burst of musty, heady tuberose, as if I've come upon a recently hidden bouquet in an ancient, dusty closet. Then there's about a minute of pure, fresh,...

I love every bit of this--from the gasoline/ menthol opening to the creamy flowers that emerge from it, never quite losing (on me) that wonderfully strange note. DH: That's not gasoline, it's...

I love tuberose...but not when it's mixed with Denorex coal tar shampoo. I even waved my wrist under my husband's nose to make sure I wasn't imagining the coal tar, and he confirmed my reaction. ...

To those who aren't Serge Lutens fans, I'm sure it becomes incredibly tiresome to watch otherwise sane people morph into drooling zombies, prepared to endlessly fawn over his creations. In fact, I...

Retried Tubereuse Criminelle recently after I tried Tuberose Indiana as part of one of my forays into the new (for me) world of tuberose fascination. Tub. Indiana was well mannered. Actually,...

Let me start off saying that I'm not a tuberose fan, hence the average rating. This is a confident, in your face tuberose scent, feminine and daring. This one's for the girls who want to make an...

I love tuberose so I really tried to like this fragrance. I had been wearing it for several hours, the nasty top note was gone, when a friend of mine walked up and said, "I smell Clorox. Have you...

This is the best tuberose I have ever smelled: creamy and not TOO heady. However, I had to give it four stars instead of five, because no matter how hard I try, I still dislike the menthol...

This is the only tuberose fragrance I have ever liked. In the beginning, it is to tuberose like Voleur de Roses is to roses-- there is a eucalyptus or something note-- very strange and intriguing....

An alarming hospital top note makes one panic, long before the flowers appear. It is so akin to anti-bacterial disinfectant or mouthwash as to scare away most people. I am convinced not many stake...

I call this "The Absurd and the Sublime." The opening is so absurd that you can't help but comment. However, on my skin, the strongest phase of this spearmint, menthol note is extremely short-lived...

Doesn't anyone get wintergreen from this? (i.e. rootbeer, surgical spirit, methyl/ethyl salicylate in chemical terms). In England it would remind of euthymol toothpaste. I am told the wintergreen...

At first application, I admit I was a little worried. There was a moment(actually 2 minutes) when I thought I smelled moth balls and that this scent would not work for me. Then it became comical,...

The Myth of the Tuberose Criminelle! This has to be one of the most infamous scents on MUA - its reputation precedes it. It sure is criminal. Opens with a petroleum gaseous menthol THING that is...
