    Kind of orange blossom with faint oriental supporting notes. Okay, a bit watery floral with sweet lush candy flower notes, but a bit too much like orange blossom in the end. Great if you like...

    This is a gorgeous white floral composition with a cassis undercurrent! The quality is absolutely incredible--especially for the price! I find this very classic--rich and elegant. If you are...

    The Mouillette d’Or award that Patricia won for this fragrance is very well deserved. A very feminine well constructed white floral which is elegant and long lasting. Being a lover of white...

    A very pretty, well-made, tidy-little white floral, that won a French prize apparently. Ho hum. It's just not that interesting. I prefer her quirkier creations like Sacrebleu. Swap, anyone?

    I'll be honest-I don't like tuberose. I read the description of this on BH and thought I might like it. Thankfully I only got a sample because I had to wash it off immediately. One of the most...

    As a white floral lover, I find this to be an exquisitely crafted fragrance, demonstrating well defined yet fluid top, heart and base notes. Aldehydic, yes, but no more so than Sacrebleu or some...

    I've come to a point where I really like white florals, but when I first put this on I had the impression of a fierce army of white flowers marching down on me. Not a comfortable feeling. Very...

    Number One is a winner -- a seamlessly blended white floral. This is so well-done that it makes me wonder if Patricia de Nicolai aimed to win a contest. I'm not being cheeky (okay, so I am a...

    My husband gave this to me after I had our first son and it became my signature scent for a long time. It is richly complex and a majestic fusion of tuberose, lilies and jasmine. Also leaves a very...

    At first, I thought this smelled like strong detergent or soap, and then it settled down to tuberose. It is an interesting scent, worth trying if you like florals, but it ended up smelling...

    I'm no fan of transparent, sportif fragrances. PdN Number One is another of my favorites. This is a pure, white floral that smells as I believe a perfume should-- GLAMOUROUS, FEMININE and...

    This is a very nice white floral with some aldehydes. It smells very much like La Chasse mixed with Chanel #5. The drydown is nice, but unremarkable, with no singular notes outstanding, just kind...

    A complex, somewhat dressy and refined white floral - I do get tuberose as part of it. And there is some depth here for those who feel a lot of white florals are too gossamer to wear, for them....

    Baroque but a little austere, too. For a woman with a studied composure and measured flare-- a faded grand dame with a heavy heart. Big and seamless.

    "Strong" is the word for it. Another word? "Serious" A very perfumey and strong tuberose smell . If you want a nice Tuberosa scent, try "Fracas", by Robert Piguet. Maybe, I could give 4 lipsticks...

    I really did not like this one. It has a very strong scent to me. I can hardly described the smell. Basically, a bunch of different scents mixed together for one big uncharming smell.
