Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi or, “Do You Want to Sleep With Me” is a surprisingly erotic and suggestive name for such polite and refined fragrance. I really enjoy how this smells but it doesn’t convey the sort of imagery you expect; instead, I think of a rich, important woman dressed to the nines in all her finery. Tuberose can be a tricky note for some. If done right, I find it’s one of my favourite notes of all time. This is a good tuberose - but it’s not a great one. It nails that chewy, bubblegummy feel that you would expect from a tuberose scent, but it lacks any carnal, sexual aspect which holds it back - however I can see why they might have done this to appeal to the mass market. Overall it’s a fairly typical tuberose, tempered by a buttery ylang amongst other white florals, rose and a touch of vanilla. Smell great I can’t argue with that, but it’s a little to clean and safe for my liking.
