Pros & Cons

  • I first srpayed on paper and I got a lot of indian spicies smell which I didn't very much like. On the other hand on the skin it's just amazing! such a happy fragrance! Starts with bitter orange zest and basil, transforms in a sweet floral accord and sets to a powdery white musk which is so elegant and youthful! Great impression, a trip for the senses!
  • Fresh, clean, green and soft. Has a bit of a ‘fancy spa’ vibe - smells like lime and basil soap. I mostly get citruses and herbs, with a soft woody/floral base. Longevity around 2 hours, skin scent.
  • Jasmine is the queen of flowers, intoxicating, deep, sensuous, and rich. Together with herbs and fine sandalwood, Tulsivivah is a fragrance composition of highest quality. Fragrance: 8.5/10, Longevity: 7/10, Sillage: 6/10.
  • A fundamentally joyful fragrance. That's something good, not meant to be derogatory at all. Could be good, it gets better with each wear.

  • A liaison of Tam Dao, Bergamot 22, and Acqua Viva. The citrus note lasts throughout the entire fragrance and remains subtly woody. Amazing!
  • I got a good hit of basil and a touch of pine. Then, imediately. Lemon cleaner in the cleanerist way. My partner can smell warm smoky wood and it gives a campfire effect for them. I am beginning to believe cashmere wood is just something I cannot smell or go noseblind to very very easily.
  • This smells almost the same with CRA-YON Art Life which doesn't exist in Fragrantica database. Both sweaty-cremy lemon combined with bitter basil. Not enjoyable
  • Fun departure that smells like spray foam for Carnival pranks. It's a joke? Soap in large quantities before dissolving watery, citrusy. Spicy. Yes, it made me sneeze. 5 minutes pass and all shaving foam alternating with soap. Stop. I am speechless.
  • Tulsivivah! hits me too hard with its spices right from the start. I love pure sandalwood, but here it gives the top note a strange balsamic sweetness that makes me recoil at first. This fades quickly, but the floral heart note takes it a step further. Now I actually miss fresh air that could lend the fragrance some transparency.
  • Nice, but no where near as endearing as Green, green, green or Oooh.
  • Lemon cleaner in the cleanerist way.
