Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford's Tubereuse Nue is a divisive chameleon of a fragrance - at once a bold white floral bomb, yet surprisingly clean and even 'plastic' to some. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but if you're chasing that 'kinky sexiness' or just an unashamedly powerful tuberose, this could be your new obsession.
This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its bold, dark character and say it's niche-level quality, a true masterpiece. Others find the aggressive opening too much or the performance a letdown. Discontinued and now fetching ridiculous prices, it's a coveted gem for many.
