Not to be confused with rose, tuberose is a white floral with a sweet, green heart. It's also everywhere this season. Case in point: Ralph Lauren's brand-new EDP, Woman ($84). It's undeniably feminine without feeling frail, marrying sweet tuberose with juicy pear, tangy rhubarb, creamy hazelnut, and a sheer blanket of earthy sandalwood.
Another wonderful option is Aerin's Tuberose Le Soir ($215), which was inspired by the sun setting in India over a field of full tuberose blooms. The sandalwood and vanilla make it an elegant, warm perfume, while bergamot adds zest and mandarin adds a bit of zing. This one's the perfect date-night EDP.
Finally, let's talk about Lalique's Mon Premiere Cristal in Lumiere ($180). While the previous two are quite feminine, this option is ideal for those who prefer to put on a bolder, spicier, unisex fragrance. At the heart, you'll find tuberose and jasmine, which costar with dramatic actors black saffron and bitter almond. The base offers a warm, sweet wash of mild patchouli.
