    I wore Mary Chess Carnation and Mary Chess Tuberose perfumes in the late 1970s and early 1980s. I haven’t sniffed either in years, so this review is based solely upon my memories. I mail-ordered both from one of those discount cosmetic catalogs that came in the mail back in the day (“Beauty Buy Book” was the name of one of them).
    TUBEROSE was a bit disappointing for me, as it didn’t smell like its namesake at all on my skin. Of course, I was looking for something like Fracas, which has been my favorite fragrance since I started wearing it in the 1970s. Instead of the creamy (yet sharp) and sweet (yet earthy) scent that I associate with tuberose, The Mary Chess fragrance was was heaver and warmer – this sounds odd, but something in it reminded me of Faberge’s Tigress or Frances Denny’s Hope. I recall that it was sweet, and what I would have called “old-fashioned,” which makes perfect sense since it came out in the 1930s. A nice fragrance, but not at all what I was expecting. I see that the Vermont Country Store sells something called “Mary Chess Tuberose Gardenia.” I have no idea what it smells like, but I’ve heard bad things about other vintage fragrances that VCS stocks remakes of.
    CARNATION, though was exactly what I was hoping for – it really did smell like carnations, or other flowers in the dianthus family, with a little clove and vanilla thrown in for good measure. In fact, it’s the closest to the real flower that I’ve ever experienced in a perfume. Some of my friends thought that it smelled like a man’s cologne – perhaps the carnation scent is more prevalent in masculine fragrances rather than feminine ones.
    I hope that someone out there in perfume land can sample some of the actual products and let me know if I’m remembering them correctly.
