The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1980 by Creed, Tubereuse Indiana was crafted by Olivier Creed as an ode to the rich and evocative Indian tuberose. The top note of bergamot introduces a bright freshness that quickly gives way to the lush heart of Indian tuberose, known for its deep emotional resonance and serenity in Ayurvedic medicine. This floral intensity is then grounded by base notes of ambergris and vanilla, creating a scent that is both exotic and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points for a lasting effect. The top note of bergamot fades quickly, giving way to the rich heart and base notes that develop over time. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room.
