Reviews of Noix de Tuberéuse| teardrop EnglandShow all reviews | This is a tuberose made warm, rich, & sweet by mimosa, tonka, amber & fig. There is a honeyed, almondy quality to this which makes it very different from other tuberoses l've tried. l'd say it would be best not to wear this in very warm weather, as the sweetness could be overpowering. l like & respect it, but it's just not quite me, hence the neutral rating. 30th January, 2011. |
| VintageVogue United StatesShow all reviews | Miller Harris's Noix de Tubéreuse smells like a perfect combination of Fracas and L'Origan. The opening is tuberose and bubble gum, and then a few seconds later something like coconut emerges. I'm not a fan of super-sweetsie fragrances, but I don't find this stage offputting. It's fun, interesting, short lived and totally inoffensive. What emerges in the middle notes is something that smells very much like L'Origan. There's an oriental vibe here, a nice balance of what smells like heliotrope, a little powder, some violet-like notes, and a bit of amber. The ultimate drydown is basically more of the same. I have no idea what specific consumer MH had in mind for NdT, but I would recommend this for those who love the greats like Fracas and L'Origan, especially. NdT seems to be an homage to these classics. Sillage is subtle, much more so than Fracas. 2nd February, 2010. |

My fears that this would remain firmly in the feminine camp were unfounded, as became clear once the dense floral weave was sweetened, and embraced by the Amber. The resulting warm, almond like accord, is truly worthy of the entrance fee alone. Although there was minimal evolution post top notes, there didn't need to be. Once in it's stride this was languid, smooth and a delightfully engaging. 12nd March, 2009. |
| LedByMyNose CanadaShow all reviews | This scent is the definition of why I dislike tuberose in some frags (i.e. this one) and not in others. This was too heavy, sweet and cloying for me, although objectively I wouldn't call it "bad" - it didn't smell synthetic at all. Just not to my taste, at all. Something I can see wearing with red lipstick and fur. Very glamourous and feminine. 10th September, 2008. |
