The review

On paper, The Forbidden Black Tuberose is a strong bet if you want L'Interdit Tubéreuse Noire for less.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is L'Interdit Tubéreuse Noire's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 it costs 78% less than L'Interdit Tubéreuse Noire.

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on tuberose, turns to tuberose and orange blossom, and settles into precious woods, patchouli and coffee. That is the brief The Forbidden Black Tuberose is working from.

Top

  • tuberose

Heart

  • tuberose
  • orange blossom

Base

  • precious woods
  • patchouli
  • coffee
Tuberose petals held over a flame, with coffee smoke curling through; addictive and strange.
