I found two Miller Harris perfumes at TJ Maxx and snapped them up: this one and La Feuille. I sprayed them both in the car. La Feuille was a dream: creamy floral with a hint of green, just gorgeous. Tuberosa was also dreamy: golden, sweet, creamy. I was thrilled with my find. A couple of days later, I put La Feuille on and it was pure tomato leaf. Nothing else. TOMATO LEAF. No milky floral…no hint of green…just a strong blast of something I’m not that into. I sprayed several sprays into the air (like 20), waited a few days, tried again, and still nothing but tomato leaf. Bad bottle? I tried the Tuberosa with apprehension but it was still the same luscious rendition of tuberose. Nevertheless, I returned them both, worried that the batches were old, or Tuberosa would go in the direction of La Feuille the next time I chose to wear it.
Fast forward a month and while perfume shopping at the mall I kept drifting to fragrances heavy on tuberose. I kept thinking about the lovely one I had returned. Nothing smelled as happy as that Miller Harris interpretation. I stopped at TJ Maxx on the way home and there was my Tuberosa! On clearance! The same creamy sweet buttery happy floral. It is one of my favorite perfumes, it lifts my mood, and I reach for it on rainy days, busy days, and important days when I need a lift. Highly recommend.

This was a blind buy for me. I excitedly opened the beautiful box, it’s made to look like a book ( from the “library “ of perfumes ). I sprayed , it s was soft ,a little camphorated. It reminded me, ever so slightly , of SL Tunerose Criminelle. A few seconds later that note evaporated and my disappointment began. The perfume turned sweet and creamy, probably because of Ylang. It didn’t seem indolic like Diptique’s Olene, or fecal like Fracas can be , or heavy and sticky like the Tuberose from Illuminum .
It was brigh, sunny, creamy and happy. No drama here. The queen that blooms so rarely is turned into a plain beauty that seemed a little boring.
I Immediately listed my bottle for swap. But overnight I sprayed it on my hands again, I went to bed and I could not stop sniffing my hands. Somehow the warmth of my bed made it evolve into this slightly animatic and buttery flower, lovely and addictive I wanted more. So I decided to keep it after all .
My conclusion ? Give it time. Let it develop. It has no drama and little complexity , but it is so natural and feminine it just says elegance and beauty. The lasting power was average for me, better on clothes, with gentle, medium silage. It is not loud and obnoxious like Tuberose can often appear. Lovely, happy, elegant.

Miller Harris Tuberosa is a sweet, bright and rosy, fruity tuberose. I think my expectations were a bit high given the packaging, descriptions and price.
I’m an admirer of Lyn Harris and a handful of her creations have made their way onto my ‘like’ and ‘love’ shelves, but I don’t find this one very captivating.
I should mention that I’m a bit of a tough customer and I’m always on the lookout for my perfect fit tuberose perfume. This is not it.
It’s apparent that Tuberosa is very well made and it smells natural. It opens in a popular, bright and fruity style and stays that way for several hours. Mandarin, rose and ylang ylang are detectable although masterfully blended with the tuberose. I’m not getting much indole, a light touch of camphor perhaps. And there’s nothing animalic, carnal or erotic here as far as I’m concerned.
During the softer musky far dry down, if I sniff very hard I think I can smell an opulent, plump and lovely soapy non-sweet real tuberose flower, but then it’s gone. Oh, if only I could have that gorgeous, fleeting smell from beginning to end!
Ah well, never mind.
Sillage is radiant for a good couple of hours. Longevity, up to nine hours.
This is a quality composition that smells very natural, so, if you like your tuberose happy, sweet and fruity then it’s definitely worth a try.

This is a gorgeous tuberose fragrance. I can see why someone smells a similarity with Andy Tauer Flash Tuberose. The similarity is very obvious at the start but then they diverge. Tuberosa quickly gets more buttery and much softer within the 1st half hour. Tuberosa isn’t as strong as Andy Tauers. I definitely detect the sambac jasmine and neroli. There is also a creaminess which I will guess is the work of the musk. Tuberose can be a tough note to wear but here MH has created quite an easy to wear tuberose. Moderate silage and longevity.

I love white florals. Jasmine and Tuberose in particular.
They made you feel special. Especially where i live; a hot tropical climate. The creamy projection introduces an uplifting state of mind for me.
My first tuberose centered perfume is Do son by Diptyque, which for me was intoxicating. I was in tuberose heaven. Read the review of legendary Fracas and Carnal Flower, wish I have the chance to experience them.
Own a few bottle of Miller Harris, notice that her signature is the sweetness on every perfume she creates. I like the “center” smell of almost all of her perfume. It’s somewhat very delicate to the nose and yet strong in protruding their creator’s message. You cant seem to have enough.
Tuberosa lasted a good 12 hours on me. Still projecting her creamy notes after a whole day at work. Its tuberose is sweet, raw and almost animalic.
Against Do Son which have 7-8 hours of silage but the perfume changes from the fresh honeyed tuberose to a bit powdery on the dry down.
Its probably not fair to compare against my EDP Tuberosa and my EDT Do Son, but I feel there’s a need to have a base for my comparison.
Tuberosa runs linear on me.
Most people will notice you even with 2 spray – just smile.
I like the presentation in overall, from the box to the bottle. Not so much on the price.
I owned a few sample of Tubereuse 3 by Histoiries de Parfums. Very animalic and addictive, but wouldnt call it total/centered base tuberose perfume, but worth to look them up.
I remember the smell even after. Not something you can easily forget.
Queen of the night indeed.

This tuberose scent to my nose is appalling. There’s something off putting(leather-like) about the flowers used in this frag that just does not agree with my nose.

Miller Harris surprised me as I usually struggle with this line..I’ve never been a floral type but I really appreciate this approach to tuberose.Tuberosa is one of the most beautiful tuberose scent I have ever smelled. A superior quality buttery tuberose scent, so natural , so well crafted. This is even better than the legendary Fracas. Thick tuberose, tropical with only just a hint of sweetness. Amazing staying power and medium sillage.Exceptional!
