During the Renaissance it was a forbidden for young women to enter into the gardens at night for one reason only; the erotic power of Tuberose. Supposedly turning them in wanton women, the allure to the Tuberose was too great, it was too carnal fro anyone to escape. The captivating scent of Tuberose Virginale – a Tuberose blended with Tangerine and Cherry is enough to make any body weaken at the knees. Designed to tickle your imagination, this is a romantic floral with just a little touch of exotic decadence. A truly forbidden scent of the times! This seductive fragrance has the richness of Tuberose blended with the soft dryness of Blond Woods. Frangipani, Gardenia and Jasmine in its heart make for a composition of Virginal purity that gives off an enveloping trail, both suave and carnal. The perfect scent to take you from day to night and to create a stir!

HOW IT WEARS
This fragrance is an Eau de Parfum and the longevity with Histories de Parfums is generally about 6 – 8 hours, however we really get around 7 hours with this particular scent. Deep and captivating for the duration of the scent, we find it does soften down, but the richness remains. The Cherry note mingles with the white florals in the opening creating a playful floral then the woods ground the scent. A wonderful fragrance for lovers of white florals!

Masha –
This is a beautiful, natural, sexy tuberose. It has a bright feel and is safe enough for day wear (partly because it sits close to the skin), but it’s still sexy and certainly not just a clean innocent floral. On my skin I get a yummy honeyed tuberose with soft musk. Wears well in hot weather (have yet to try it on colder days). A new favourite for summer!
