Tuvache' was a New York company who used a French name to compete with all the pre-World War II French fragrances controlling the industry. Madame Tuvache' is a character in the famous French novel, Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Bottle we are decanting from is the original Tuvache Jungle gardenia and it doesn't get any better than the original version.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tuvache Jungle Gardenia is became the standard for gardenia Parfums -  and the signature scents of many actresses such as - Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford, Joan Bennett, Annette Funicello, Natalie Wood, Elizabeth Taylor, and Fay Wray wore it while filming King Kong.  It's even rumored that Frank Sinatra liked a drop or two of Jungle Gardenia.

The original Tuvara premiered in 1948. A lovely mixture of Chamomile, Lavender, Myrrh, Labdanum, Vanilla and Musk.  Obviously, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Tuvara copied Tabu, but made it lighter. Youth Dew copied Tuvara, but added the depth back in.  If you like either Tabu or Youth Dew, you will love Tuvara.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBasenotes - This is a spicy fragrance with woody and subtle floral undertones. Warm and somewhat heavy; better in cool weather... a slight myrrh-like bitterness followed by layers of deep herbaceous\/spicy goodness\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFragrantica - My review is for the vintage perfume version, not the modern update. I think the bottle mine came from is the 1950s, so it's either a first or second formula. It smells like buttery, slightly yeasty, delicious cinnamon rolls waiting for their frosting. It's delicious, warm, and spicy. I detect faint notes of tuberose, which combines beautifully with the cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, coriander, and what must be very smoothly blended sandalwood, ambregris, civet, and possibly deer musk. It shimmers and smells incredible. Absolutely LOVE this one! It is spicy enough and gentle enough on the florals to smell equally good on men as on women. Due to the natural components, it does fade before the 12hr mark on skin, but the longevity is excellent in the bath oil and perfume versions. I'm on the hunt for a full original bottle now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI can't speak to the updated version, but it does look like the listed notes have changed a lot. Added more aldehydes, added myrrh (which I absolutely cannot stand in perfumes. It makes my throat swell. If it's in the original, it's such a tiny amount that it's not triggering my allergies), decreased the vanilla, and increased the geranium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lavender here is gentle and not camphorous. There are hints of nag champa incense and a touch of magnolia, but again, so finely blended that you really can't detect them unless they're favorite notes or you despise them. To me the cinnamonum verum (not cassia because this version is too sweet and dessert-type as opposed to strongly spicy - if you cook quite a bit and use them for different recipes or Asian cooking, you will know exactly what I mean.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the dry down the cinnamon quiets, the aldehydes fade, and you're left with a whisper of a white floral over an amber-musk base (except there is no benzoin and no actual amber). It's strange to describe and exprience an amber with no amber. If you normally hate amber or benzoin bases, this is a good perfume to try to get that soft, sweet, almost aquatic base, but without those ingredients or the common synthetics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragrantica - I'm absolutely loving this! Tabu is listed as a similar fragrance, and the first whiff out of the bottle did remind me of that. But a few moments later, I realized this fragrance is like nothing I have. And is just what I've been looking for--a warm, sort of spicy (but not too much), sultry (but not over the top), and not-too-sweet fragrance. I need more of this! It's already become a favorite. This is one of the highest-rated fragrances I've seen on this site, and I can see why.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragrantica - Testing a vintage Spray Concentrate, perhaps 1960´s... Wow, just wow. This is a wonderful wonderful perfume that should be far more famous. Opens with a fresh herbal floral,with a touch of floral sweetness. Woody and fresh and spices too with a touch of sweetness. Powerhouse and yes can cut through smoke most likely but it is not cloying..\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragrantica - WOW! What a powerhouse! Who would have thought sweet little carnations could pack such a wallop? To call Tuvara heady is to underestimate it's sensuality. This is a warm, sweet, spicy, floral oriental dominated by the aforementioned carnations. It is highly reminiscent of Youth Dew but far deadlier because it lacks the ladylike undercurrent of the Lauder classic. No ma'am, Tuvara is no lady. She is the temptress who gives life a sly smile and says, \"Catch up! I won't wait for you!\". Wear when you want to be noticed -- and remembered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragrantica - I used the oil concentrate in the late 60's. It was one gorgeous evening scent described as one which could cut through the cigarette smoke ( of then smoking allowed entertainment venues). And it lived up to its reputation. It was sooo potent\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tuvache","offers":[{"title":"1\/2 ML - 1\/2 filled sample vial","offer_id":45306621034657,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-1","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 ML - Glass Sample Vial","offer_id":45306621067425,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-2","price":11.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":45306621100193,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-3","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":45306621132961,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-4","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":45306621165729,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-5","price":56.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML - Glass rollon","offer_id":45306621198497,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-6","price":56.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":45306621231265,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-7","price":89.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 ML - Glass Spray","offer_id":45306621264033,"sku":"TUVACHETUVARA-8","price":167.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1993\/6689\/files\/TuvacheTuvaraSkin.png?v=1757533504"}],"url":"https:\/\/theperfumedcourt.com\/collections\/tuvache.oembed","provider":"The Perfumed Court","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
