by L'Erbolario
A tropical, sweetly gourmand floral with a strong coconut and vanilla core, Tiare by L'Erbolario evokes sunny vacation days and the scent of seaside suntan lotions. The opening features a blend of white florals—lily of the valley, ylang-ylang, and cyclamen—woven into a creamy, coconut-rich heart that gives way to a warm, sweet base of vanilla and musk. While some commenters note a faint salty or seashore-like element, this is more likely an impression prompted by the gourmand sweetness than the presence of actual marine notes. The fragrance is consistently described as powerful and long-lasting on clothing, though many perceive it as short-lived on skin—lasting no more than an hour for some. It's ideal for warm weather, particularly summer, where its sweet, beachy profile is most effective. Despite the brand's affordable pricing, many users hesitate to wear it beyond brief moments due to the intense sweetness, likening it to a sugared treat or a cake-like aroma. Some suggest it works best as a body spray or layered with more tangy/fruity fragrances to balance its richness.
