Laboratorio Olfattivo Tuberosis is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Jean-Claude Ellena. Tuberosis opens with Coriander, settles into a heart of Spicy Notes, Tuberose, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Musk. Laboratorio Olfattivo's Tuberosis carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This isn't your average bombastic tuberose. Tuberosis offers a polite, fresh, and subtly spiced take on the white floral, a divisive scent that some adore for its understated elegance and others find disappointingly weak or too-herbal.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its subdued projection and clean, fresh profile make it excellent for office and casual settings where you don't want to overpower. The soft sillage, though frustrating for some, prevents it from being too bold for warmer weather or more intimate dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Tuberosis opens with a clean, slightly green burst of delicate tuberose petals, soon joined by a distinctive spicy warmth from coriander and carnation. The white floral heart is tender, not indolic, resting gently on a musky base that adds a fresh, almost watery transparency. It's a nuanced interpretation, avoiding the loud, creamy clichés of many tuberose fragrances.
