Perfumer: Nicolas Beaulieu
The evocative scent of a blooming tubereuse in a smokey room. Like an olfactory photograph of the five petalled sensuous and narcotic white flower. A delightful blend of cassis, tobacco and honeyed vanilla puts the floral tones into light and exotic relief. The natural freshness of galbanum and green leaves gives a viridescent effect that’s rich and inviting.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is for close quarters and low light, when the air can hold a scent with some tension in it. It suits a wearer who wants a floral presence that feels charged rather than pretty: green at first, then smoky and velvety, like a white flower seen through tobacco haze.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, where its green opening and tobacco-tuberose heart can breathe without turning heavy. Apply lightly at first; the projection is assertive, and a few sprays are enough to create a noticeable, lingering aura on skin and in the air.
Who it’s for
For those who like floral scents with structure, contrast and a slightly dark twist. It will appeal to fans of green tuberose, smoky florals, and compositions that feel polished, unusual and a little narcotic rather than creamy or sweet.

The nose
Nicolas Beaulieu is an IFF perfumer known for giving raw materials a vivid, tactile presence. His style often balances precision with sensuality, turning natural materials into compositions that feel textured and emotionally immediate. In Tubereuse, he uses headspace technology to capture the flower’s living, slightly cold character and frames it with tobacco, galbanum and vanilla. The result is a tuberose that feels less lush and more atmospheric: green, smoky and polished, with the flower’s narcotic quality held in clear focus.
Collaborators
Nicolas Chabot, Headspace’s founder, shaped the brand’s concept of translating raw materials and ambient impressions into perfume, while Nicolas Beaulieu developed the composition within that framework. Jules Dinand contributed the bottle design, reinforcing the house’s minimalist, lab-vial aesthetic.
Headspace’s story
Headspace builds perfumes around the meeting point of science and memory, using headspace-inspired ideas to capture the trace of a place, material or moment rather than a literal floral portrait. The house favors stripped-back names, minimalist bottles and compositions that feel conceptual but wearable.
TUBEREUSE’s concept
Tubéreuse was launched in 2022 as part of Headspace’s modern, material-driven collection. The fragrance was built around a headspace-captured tuberose impression, then sharpened with tobacco, galbanum and blackcurrant to evoke a blooming flower in a smoky room, sensual but edged with coolness.
Extra info
Headspace Tubéreuse is built around the idea of a flower captured by headspace technology, a method associated with preserving scent without harvesting the source. The bottle follows the brand’s minimalist, vial-like design language, and the fragrance remains in production.
