The take

What works

  • One of the few perfumes to capture tulip convincingly — green, watery, and alive
  • Perfect spring scent — olfactory equivalent of a flower market in April
  • Vetyver base grounds the florals without weighing them down

Trade-offs

  • Limited seasonal range — loses its magic outside spring
  • Longevity is modest; reapply by afternoon
