Tuberose
The White Fever
A flower that smells like skin, heat, and trouble.
✶
Tuberose is the most carnal of the white florals — creamy, intoxicating, with a green stem-snap and an almost rubbery, mentholated underside. She has been considered dangerous for centuries, and not without reason.
A commanding heart note, she fills a room with humid, narcotic sweetness; nothing else flowers quite so loudly.
