Rubbery, fresh horse dung that’s rolled in grass clippings. Smells like the countryside in Spring.

Tuberose esordisce con un aspetto freddo e brinato,canforato,inquietante e quasi alieno,di sicuro effetto sorprendente.
Poi pian piano si addolcisce in modo naturale con fiori ipnotici di gelsomino notturno e rosa,un tocco di pepe pungente,ma è lunare,suggestivo.
I profumi prima di recensirli andrebbero provati sulla pelle e per varie volte a distanza di tempo, e non su una striscetta di carta.

First thing that came in my mind was root beer. ANOTHER fragrance that smells like root beer! *bleh* Pretty much the same reaction to Serge Lutens tuberose fragrance. Smells almost identical in that regard. SL has so much more depth though and mentholated too. All things I do NOT like in perfume lol Run away!

This scent is not for everyone. However, I think it really deserves some cred. Actually, I absolutely adore it. If I’d named it, I’d called it “Dirty Tuberose”. I feel strong white lilies and jasmin in the opening, not clean and fresh white flowers though, rather something dirty. It also has something that reminds me of bubble gum or scented eraser. Eventually, the somewhat “dirty” note disappears, and I feel clean, soft tuberose. Longivity is very good, and sillage is moderate. It’s sophisticated, and very interesting. Also quite sexy in my opinion. In my fantasy, this is something that Sylvia Plath or Simone de Beauvoir would have worn. It’s like a punch in the face.

When i tried a sample from Keiko Mecheris “Tuberose”, i could not believe it, first i thought my sample has gone off.
The opening is pungent fishy and soapy. I wonder what flower Mrs Mecheri smelled, when she created her “Tuberose”. Maybe not a fresh but a half-rotten one ? Sorry.
I already smelled fresh Tuberose flowers, the odour is heavenly, nearly edible. First there is a whiff of eucalyptus and freshly cut melon in the opening. After a while it smells lactonic like coconut-milk mingled with gardenia flower and jasmin. In the drydown there is a milky sandalwood. Yummi ! The dead heads smell a bit meaty like raw chicken or mushroom, maybe indol, but i never, never detected something that fishy.
The fond of the fragrance is ok, when the fishy odour is gone.
Nonetheless it is disappointing.
Keiko Mecheris fragrances are usally musty, creamy, elegant and decent, but “Tuberose” is a bit of a strech.

This is awful. I’m a huge tuberose fan and this is the worst of all of the tuberoses fragrances I’ve tried. This REALLY smells like a cleaning product. It’s something I would use it on the floor and think “yeah, smells ok”. Also, it’s the kind of clean fragrance you would smell at your dentist. Starlight_Angel described it perfectly “overly pungent aroma of synthetic tuberose coupled with an incredibly sickening soapiness in the dry down”.
Indeed, very soapy. Soapy to the point I thought my sample had gone bad or something. This smells like the cheapest soap you could find in the supermakert, really. I don’t even understand how they had the nerve to call it “tuberose”. It’s ridiculous.
EDIT: something really funny just happened. I found a sample of this among my other samples and decided to try it lol, started writing this review, and then noticed I had already done a review last year LOL! Anyway, this is my 2014 review >
“BLAH. This fragrance smells so medicinal, synthetic and just cheap. If someone told me this cost $10.00 I would say it’s expensive. Really, the opening is not tuberose and the drydown is just so awful and synthetic. Thank God this isn’t strong because I just took a shower and I would have to take another one if this was stronger. If you are thinking about buying a sample of this or buying it: don’t. I’m a tuberose fan and I don’t like this at all.”

Of all the Keiko Mecheri scents that I have tried, Tuberose is my least favorite.
I find this fragrance to be harsh and even slightly astringent with a chokingly bitter edge.
Perhaps it is because I am not a tuberose lover, that this did not appeal to me.
But I felt like my senses were being assaulted by this overly pungent aroma of synthetic tuberose coupled with an incredibly sickening soapiness in the dry down.
If you enjoy this scent, then a positive point to this perfume (although for me it was a definite negative) is that it lasts through the entire day, even through a shower.
But, in all honesty, there are way better tuberoses on the market than this one, many of which are less expensive.
I have come to expect a lot from Keiko Mecheri’s perfumes, but this one did not live up to standard that I have become used to with her creations.
Unfortunately, I find this to be a very disappointing scent.
