Tuberose has enjoyed the reputation of being the seductress of the flower world for centuries. During the Renaissance, young ladies were forbidden to walk through the gardens at night because the alluring scent of tuberose was an intense aphrodisiac.  In the 19th century, women put some fresh tuberose under their dresses to attract men.

In her first new perfume since 2011 Royal Lotus (created for the Natural Perfumer’s Brave New Scents Internet Project), according to Anya McCoy of Anya’s Gardens, “In all my research over the years, I have never seen a flower given such incredible powers in aiding seduction”.
