| holidayhoo's Full Review: Marc Jacobs Woman by Marc Jacobs 3.4oz S Perfumes ... |
This is a lovely perfume of very high scent quality. Does not smell like some cheap gardenia perfume from the dollar store. Scent is not overpowering and the floral scent is balanced by clean notes so that the perfume is not to powdery overpowering and noxiously floral. It is floral though. Some reviewers say it smells like gardenia and for the uneducated nose it does. But anyone who has smelled tuberose will knoww that THAT is what it smells like. I grow tuberose in my garden and the fragrance or smell is very similar. Almost exact. Tuberose is slightly "greener" than gardenia and a little fresher..... less powdery. This perfume smells predonminantly of tuberose but as I said mixed with other things so that the floral scent is not tooo overpowering and SOME strong florals (besides maybe something like muguet de bois) can be. I find most truly gardenia perfume offensive powdery and overpowering but this tuberose one is lovely. Highly reccomended one of my favorites.
