I do love tuberose normally, but I’m not a fan of this. For me, it has the same problem as the Guerlain Joyeuse Tubereuse: VANILLA! I’ve realized I really don’t like that combination – it seems to spoil the tuberose for me.
Truth Or Dare shares this and one other flaw for my nose – fake creamy smell.
I’ll be sticking to Carnal Flower, Fracas, Do Son, Jardins de Bagatelle and all my other tuberose faves.

Similar to Madonna’s Truth or Dare. Sweet, creamy vanilla-tuberose. Obviously Amouage has nicer and more complex ingredients, but they are sisters.

It’s official: I don’t love or like tuberose as a dominant note. This one smelled almost mentholated and indolic like jasmine, but it was definitely tuberose. Just not for me, unfortunately, but on others, it probably smells lovely.

This reminds me a lot of Chantecaille’s Petales, but so much stronger. Maybe a tad sweeter. It dries down to an expensive creamy scent and I think this is when I like it most. Nothing too unique here but very pretty and it’s definitely quality. In the end the tuberose/gardenia combo is just too much for me. One more thing. Before now I never understood the concept of “wedding fragrance” however after smelling this, all I can think of is: bridal scent. Worth a test for sure but not the price for a whole bottle.

I, I Think.. No. I know. I’m In Love….
This looks like it will be my perfect Tuberose perfume.
Swooning….

This is an opportunity lost for Amouage. They could have shown the world how Amouage does tuberose. Animalic or lush, smoky or delicious. But all we get is a generic soliflore, same as thousand other sprays. Sad.
It opens with a tuberose sprinkled with tuberose and enveloped in tuberose. After 15 minutes it becomes Joyeuse Tubereuse but synthetic and less vibrant. Guerlain did it so much better.
Among positives is strong sillage and unbelievable realness of opening which gives you headahces immediately. Probably cures rhinitis.

Unfortunately, I don’t “love” Amouage’s ‘Love Tuberose’.
Now I do LOVE tuberose normally, just not when it’s teamed-up with my nemesis vanilla. And boy does ‘Love Tuberose’ equally love vanilla, it’s almost like a tuberose/vanilla duo. In that sense, it reminds me of Guerlain’s ‘Joyeuse Tubéreuse’ as that too is a heavily dependant vanilla-tuberose. I think they worry about tuberose being a screechy white floral (which it can often become) so they soften the screechy edges with boring-old-reliable vanilla. For me, vanilla evokes feelings of nausea, but I realise that’s a personal issue which I suffer alone, so I’m aware I shouldn’t inflict my bias on fellow Fragranticans. The other sweetness weapon used to unscreech the tuberose is the whipped cream – this along with the jasmine, is a combination also seen (or smelt) in Jean Paul Gaultier’s ‘Classique’ Essence De Parfum.
In conclusion, I’m thinking that the use of the word “love” in the title should mean “vanilla”, as ‘Love Tuberose’ is the vanilla/tuberose buddy to ‘Blossom Love’s’ vanilla/cherry-blossom. If you love the tuberose/vanilla combo then you’ll love this. If you love the mighty white floral which is Amouage’s ‘Honour’ then you should try ‘Love Tuberose’ as it’s more comforting and (dare I say) more interesting. Let’s not forget that this is still an almighty Amouage with the same holy quality, and Amouage is (quite possibly) the best perfume house of all. I await what else they are cook-up in the future (just not with vanilla or graveyardy incense).

Do not blind buy this perfume, far too expensive and too simplistic in scent.
I can smell the cream and the tuberose, but nothing that is outstandingly warranting that price tag.
I got a sample this morning and whilst it’s beautiful.
It smells sweet, clean and you can not really smell the vanilla and cedar and the other notes.
It just smells like a sweet white floral perfume.
I would say that you can get so many cheaper perfumes for less than half of this and enjoy it far more.
I was expecting to have a great enjoyment in spraying and smelling it, but I did not.
I have never owned an Amouage perfume and I wanted to smell the secret garden collection, after this experience, not too keen now, a masterpiece (no), well advertised (Yes).
Do not blind buy unless you have unlimited money to splurge.

A rich, green, earthy tuberose, though nothing new for a genre. I smelled dozens of tuberoses like that that cost many times cheaper. For example, Diptyque Do Son.

I’m ready to blindbuy this one as soon as it hits the shelves of any of the local perfume stores
I believe I can call myself an Amouage fan after buying six different Amouage Fragrances and sampling dozens of them
I LOVE Secret Garden collection of Amouage,on the other hand,I love white florals(I’m craving tuberose and gardenia these days more than anything else)and I love the idea of blending them with cream and vanilla.so this new offering seems to be right up my alley
It’s not available here so I haven’t sampled it yet but tuberose and cream reminds me of Tom Ford Orchid Soleil which I like a lot but I wish cream and vanilla to be stronger here and to see a tuberose without green naunces.a friend of mine who lives abroad and has tested it,describes it as a feminine,very creamy tuberose dominant white floral with right amount of sweetness and great projection
it sounds dreamy

I try this in their shop at muscat, first smells like lovely tuberose which i like. After it drys down it smells to me like a very ripe variety of a mango which is unique and delightful. Lovely scent.

An AMOUAGE new release for me is almost the equivalent to a new coveted album of MARIAH, ROBYN or even BJORK. They no longer happen that often but when they do, it’s always a major event to look forward to.
I think AMOUAGE has a good mix of perfume stories and thus enough releases to keep you interested and keep to invest into an ‘olfactory wardrobe’. Mine is evergrowing (I sometimes have to lock novelties away to force myself to finish the oldies, but my spritz-consumption is not nearly as strong as my shopping habit; sounds familiar?)
This now 3rd offering of the “Secret Garden” Collection is a great and rather excellently blended story of tuberose, jasmine (the climbing type), Chantilly Cream, Sandalwood and Cedar. The mentioned Gardenia is more like the sum of all the former, although there is a tiny bit of botanical mushroom (the flirty and dirty) note as well, yet ever so faint (it’s a whisper, not a scream).
Beautifully feminine, but then again, if a man added some more woods on other pulse points, I am confident a grown-a$$ man can equally wear this: I recommend additional applications of “Honour Man” to make it more ‘manly’ if needed.
Yes it is sweet, but not cloying and the Chantilly cream note doesn’t make it fat and greasy, but more silky and Cashmerean in appeal.
It is overall quite smooth, but also sharp and pungent in the beginning; possibly a bit ‘penetrant’ due to heaps of tuberose (a very strong and very natural smelling kind), along with the jasmine and gardenia notes.
An expected class act from AMOUAGE and a welcomed stronger contender from the garden story, given the previous effort was much less of an oomph.
I would like to see this worn by a beautiful lady dressed in winter cashmere from Loro Piana (white, beige, browns). If there ever was a warm winter white colour, this is the complimenting scent for it.
VERDICT: 9/10. Almost masterpiece as I would have hoped for a true gardenia moment in the heart note, but overall sensationally good and classy. Blended to perfection.
