White floral, 1999: Tubéreuse Criminelle
Smell White floral on paper before it touches skin. The year to write is 1999, the line is “Tubéreuse Criminelle,” and the figure is 1999. Do not lay two scents on the same wrist and call it a comparison. Lutens and Malle split the flower into crime and photograph.
Concentration is oil in alcohol, not a quality score. EDT (about 5–15%) shows more top; EDP (about 15–20%) shows more heart and base. Houses vary; this is not a lab assay. One or two sprays on skin or cloth — sternum or hair, not a cloud in a lift. Let it turn an hour before you add more.
Warm nights. Cold offices flatten indole into soap. Yes. Warm, moist skin amplifies sweet and spice; dry or cool skin can turn the same juice woody, soapy or short. Test on your skin, not only a blotter. IFRA sets industry limits on some naturals and synthetics. A reformulation is usually a legal edit, not a betrayal. This atlas is not a safety sheet.
Any ethics or materials I should know? Read the materials chapter for the actual load. Niche and designer often share a family and disagree on dose. No. This atlas is cultural and editorial. Fragrance can irritate; oakmoss, eugenol, citrus oils and musks are common triggers. See a clinician for reactions. Nothing here is a diagnosis, treatment or safety sheet.
Speak of White floral as 1999, “Tubéreuse Criminelle,” and 1999. A scent is an order, not a ranking.1999
