Atkinsons Tulipe Noire in plain words

What it smells like, how it wears and who it suits.

What it smells like

It opens tart and bright, with sharp rhubarb and a fresh, spicy lift. The heart is a rich, creamy white floral. It dries down clean and soft, with musk and a dry woody touch.

How it wears

The perfume community finds it lasts a long time and projects strongly, though some wearers report both as moderate.

When to wear it

Wearers like it on spring nights, and autumn and evenings suit it too, especially if a sharp floral opening appeals.

Who it suits

Suits someone who loves white flowers but wants a crisp, tart start rather than a sweet one. It is a polished choice for men and women, and strong enough that a light spray is plenty.
