buttery beach tuberose
As a dyed-in-the-wool tuberose hater, I wouldn't have bought this generous sample of bright blue juice (it was part of a sample pack from Indiescents). The first two times I tried it, I was pleasantly surprised. With one very light spray, I got a very pleasant coconut-ginger with floral hints - like an amped-up Urban Rituelle Beachcomber or a beachy Cabotine de Gres. I was able to overlook the buttery tuberose scent because it was only part of the lovely beachiness of it all. If I had to buy a scent containing more than an iota of tuberose, this would be it.
Until today. Carelessly, I gave two good sprays. It was like melting a cup of tuberose-butter on my arm, drowning out the sprightly ginger and coconut. After about two hours, the tuberose finally died down to a dull roar. By then, this scent was on my "Never Try Again" list. Shower time!
(Note: I rated this higher than I personally feel because it's well-made and a lot of people don't share my tuberose hatred.)
