I live in the US, and my favorite tuberose fragrance is Fracas.
Thank you for the giveaway!
I’m in the US and my favorite incense fragrance is Sideris
I live in the US, and so far, my favorite tuberose is Carnal Flower.
I am in the US, and I am a Tauer fan girl!
Probably L’air du Desert Morocain is my favorite at the moment, closely followed by Un Elle pour Maroc. I went through a decant of Noontide Petals in no time, but haven’t replaced it yet. I also have a sample of Ingrid…
Thanks for the giveaway – I am interested in both these on offer!
I’m in the US. My favorite incense fragrance is actually Incense Flash, of which I received a sample through my Olfactif subscription.
Oh, how exciting! I’m in the U.S. and have a few Tauer/Tauerville loves: PHI and Vanilla Flash with LADDM creeping up on the list. Thanks!
Amazing giveaway, thank you! I live in the U.S., and my favorite Tauer is probably Incense Rose.
I live in the US and my favorite fragrance from Tauer will always be L’Air du Desert Marocain.
I live in the US. Have never tried any Tauer fragrances, but I really admire Cedre (Serge Lutens), Beyond Love (By Kilian), and Success Is The Essence of New York (Bond no. 9) tuberose scents. As always, thanks for the giveaways!
I live in the U.S. and my favorite fragrances from Tauer are L’air du Desert Morocain and Incense Rose. A favorite incense of mine is Armani Prive Bois d’Encens and my two favorite tuberose scents are Carnal Flower and Tubereuse Criminelle!
I have a US mailing address. My fave Tauer is L’air du Desert Marocain, and I adore incense, so my curiosity was piqued by your review of this perfume (Incense Flash) as blending a bit of both those influences. Plus, woodsmoke – yum! Would try Incense Flash in a flash! Thanks for the chance…
I live in the US and I can’t afford Tauer, and I’ve never really explored either tuberose or incense fragrances. However, the one incense fragrance that I do have, Tibetan Mountain Temple, is one of my favorite scents in cooler weather.
I live in the US. Favorite Tauer scent: Incense Rose (though I will listen to any arguments for Lonestar Memories); Favorite Tuberose: the amazing Carnal Flower.
I live in the U.S. and my favorite tuberose fragrance is Tubéreuse Criminelle. Thank you for the giveaway!
What a great giveaway. I’m in the US, and my favorite Tauer is L’air du desert marocain.
I live in the US, and I have quite a few favorites among Tauer scents: PHI is for the favorite rose, Incense Rose is for the favorite incense. Favorite Tuberose is Carnal Flower
Thank you
Hello
I can provide a US mail address. My favourite incense is Timbuktu.
Thanks for the giveaway
Hi Robin, thanks for the giveaway!!
I live in the US.
Favorite Tauer is L’air d marocain excuse spelling today
Favorite incense Naomi Goodsir Bois d’ acense
I live in the US.
a) favorite Tauer is Rose Flash. A friend sent me the rollerball last year and it’s lovely.
b) favorite incense? Oh that’s like picking a favorite child! I adore incense but would have to say I probably use a no name religious oil I picked up in Bhutan the most. One drop as it’s powerful stuff.
c) we had out first fire in the fireplace last night! Cozy goodness and a nice welcome to fall, my favorite season
Great giveaway! I’m in the US and am probably priced out of the Tauer line but have always wanted to try. I love Fracas and have my eye on Hiram Green Moon Bloom. Haven’t yet experienced much incense, though am game to try!
I am in the US feel free to use my email, my favorite Tauerville is Vanille Flash but my all-time favorite perfume is Ingrid, followed by LDDM. I also adore Vero Kern Rubj which is my favorite Tuberose, nothing has been able to bump it from the #1 position it holds in my collection.
This is a thrilling give-away as I haven’t had the opportunity to try a Tauer scent yet! When I was in nursing school and working retail I used to stop into Barney’s and spray a Commes de Garcon fragrance that was all deep spicy incense. I obtained a sample that was so strong (or maybe that was my perception in my pre-perfumista life) and only used a drop at a time which lasted me all season. No longer know which CdG frag it was. I live in the US.
I live in the U.S.
a. My favorite Tauer is L’air du Desert Marocain.
b. Carnal Flower is my favorite tuberose fragrance.
Thanks so much for the giveaway!
I live in the US. My favorite Tauer is Le Maroc pour Elle, but Incense Rose is a runner-up. I love Kyoto and La Liturgie des Heures for incense, and my favorite tuberoses are Carnal Flower, Moon Bloom, and Carolina Herrera. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
Thank you for this great giveaway! I live in Europe but have a close relative in the US who will happily make her mailbox available for my use should I be lucky (I’m never lucky
).
My favourite Tauer is PHI with Une Rose Chypree a close second.
As for incense I’m in love with both YSL Nu (the original edp) and Etro’s wearable Shaal Nur.
There are so many lovely tuberoses (and some not so lovely ones, too). Annick Goutal’s Tubereuse is probably the one I wear the most, L’Artisan de Parfumeur’s Mon Numero 7 is also in regular use.
I live in the US. I got a sampler pack from Andy almost two years ago and I love all of them but reach for Carillon pour un Ange most often. I do like tuberose scents and have a small vintage bottle of Fracas which I adore. I would love to try the Hiram Green Moon Bloom at some point. Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the US and my favorite tuberose is Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia. Very interested in the incense flash!
Hi Robin,
Thanks for another drawing! You are fabulous!
I live in the U.S. I have only sampled a few Tauer fragrances, but not the one with Tuberose. My favorite Tuberose fragrance is Tuberose Gardenia by Estee Lauder. It is probably the first tuberose I ever experienced. I loved and still love it. Always open to new and exciting opportunities, though!
Amazing giveaway! Thanks!
I adore L’air du desert Marocain. My favorite tuberose scent is Do Son by Diptyque. I live in the USA.
I live in the US. My favorite Tauer fragrance would be, this is a hard choice, probably Rose Chypre, with Carrilion pour un Ange and l’air du desert Moracain close favorites.
I live in the US and ALL of my Tauers are my favorites – Incense Rose (which I’m wearing today), Zeta, Un Rose Chypree, Rose Flash, Vanilla Flash, and Lonestar Memories, which I have in decant and need in a full bottle.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauer is L’air du desert Marocain. Possibly because it was my first niche perfume and the rabbit I chased down the rabbit hole!
This is terrific. I love L’air du desert Marocain as well as Lonsestar Memories. As for incense fragrances, I love the CdG incenses, especially Avignon and Kyoto. I like Heeley Cardinal, Montale Full Incense and am anxiously awaiting a sample of Unum Lavs. I think Incense Flash is terrific too. Oh, and I do live in the U.S!
Hello from the US–Robin and Andy, thank you so much for this generous giveaway. I know whoever wins is in for a real treat.
I’m repeating many of the above comments, but I think it can’t be said too many times–L’Air du desert marocain is a knockout. Cried the first time I put it in.
I live in the U.S. My favorite Tauer is Une Rose Vermeille. My “everyday” tuberose fragrance is Madonna’s Truth or Dare.
My favorite Tauer so far is Noon tide Petals but my favorite incense is Zagorsk. Yes, I do live in the US.
My favorite by Andy Tauer is L’Air du Desert Marocain (but I also love Orange Star, Sotto La Luna Gardenia , Une Rose Vermeille and many others).
This is a great drawing. Thank you so much for having it. I am in the US.
Wow! What an opportunity! I have not smelled any Tauer frags yet and I’m dying of curiosity. My favorite tuberose is Nuit de Tuberose by L’Artisan. While I have not tried a lot of incense perfumes, I know L’Artisan’s Seville a l’Aube has an incense note (because I read “The Perfume Lover”), and I adore it. Mitsuoko (another love) also strikes me as being quite incensy.
I live in the US. Thanks!
I live in the U.S. and my favorite Tauer is Une Rose Chypree. Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the US and my favorite Tauer is Rose Flash but I have a same of PHI enroute so that may change.
1. Yes, I live in the U.S.
2. L’Air du desert Marocain
3. The original YSL Nu.
Thank you!
I was gifted L’air du Desert Marocain and Rose Chypree and I love them both! Very interested in Tauer’s take on tuberose. I live in the US.
Very kind of you to host this giveaway. I live in the U.S and my favorite Tauer is Zeta followed closely by Eau D’ Epices. I’m still exploring incense fragrances.
Thanks for a chance for me to expand my perfume wardrobe! I’m in the US, and I don’t have much in the way of tuberose or incense for now. I do love both Fracas and Oeillet Bengale in each of those categories.
I live in the US. My favorite incense is a tie between Comme des Garçons Avignon and L’Artisan Passage d’Enfer
I live in the US. My favorite Tauer is Zeta. I do not have any incense perfumes, would love to try this one. Thanks for the giveaway.
I live in the U.S. and I don’t have a favorite Tauer since I have never tried one. I have always wanted to though. My favorite tuberose would be either Do Son or EL Tuberose Gardenia.
I live in the U.S.A.
My favorite Tauer is L’air du Desert Marocain.
I like the original Michael Kors AND Carnal Flower for tuberose. The MK also has an incense note.
Thanks for the drawing, Robin !!
Yes, I live in the US…Chicago! And I am fortunate to own a bottle of L’air du desert marocain. Would love to try some of his other scents. Thanks.
Thank you for this giveaway! I am among the L’air du desert marocain fans. It was one of the first FB’s I bought. I’ve been wanting Incense Flash and in fact ordered a sample but got Rose Flash instead. So I’ll try again. I like woody incenses and long ago had samples of the CdG series as well
Yes, I live in the U.S.
Thanks for the generous draw, Robin! I live in the U.S. My favorite tuberose is – tada – Carnal Flower
Hi, Robin. I live in the US and my favorite tuberose is Carnal Flower.
I live in the US. My favorite tuberose is Carnal Flower and my favorite incense is (currently) Avignon.
I live in the US and my favorite incense is Passage d’Enfer.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauers are Lonestar Memories (my gateway to niche) and L’air du Désert Marocain. Thanks for such a fabulous giveaway!
I am in the US and my favorite fragrance with tuberose is 1980’s Oscar, in which it is proven that
Tuberose + ylang-ylang / sandalwood = gorgeous.
And want to say I sniffed fresh tuberose flowers in the market this morning. The scent was nothing like I expected. Green and a bit mentholated, perhaps because the blossoms were cold and barely open. As I tried to sort out the scent in my head I imagined fresh jasmine and gardenias and then what I was smelling made more sense. Why didn’t I buy some? I was distracted by all the pumpkins.
I live in the US. My favorite Tuberose scent is By Kilian Beyond Love. Thank you for the chance, I’m dying to try the Tauer! I don’t have a favorite incense fragrance but love the note!
I live in the US and my favorite Tauer is PHI!
Thanks for the drawing! I have a US address. My favorite Tauers are PHI, Rose Vermeille and LADDM.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauer used to be L’Air du Desert Marocain until this morning while getting coffee the guy behind the counter said “I usually don’t say things like this but you smell amazing.” I was wearing Rose Flash.
Thanks for the contest, Robin, and I live in the US. I love Rose and Vanilla Flash, and my fave tuberose is still Fracas extrait, though Moon Bloom is beautiful, too.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauer fragrance so far is Une Rose Chypree – but I haven’t tried nearly enough of them, so thank you for this giveaway!
What a great draw! I’m in the USA. My favorite Tauer is Lonestar Memories.
I live in the US. My favorite Tauer is LADDM. Thanks for the draw!
I live in the US. I’m too much of a Tauer fan-girl to limit myself to just one favorite! SO, I’ve recently fallen for Tuberose Criminelle, so that’s my fave tuberose at the moment.
I live in the USA and my favorite fragrance with the incense note is L’eau d’Issey Pour Homme Intense by Issey Miyake!
Wow! What a generous draw here….I’m a huge Tauer fan. If I have to narrow it down, then LDDM or Une Rose Chypree. I’m a huge fan of tuberoses that transcend identity boundaries (as lovely as it is to smell the vavavoom Fracas, I can’t pull it off). Tubereuse Criminelle is my favorite. I’m in the US!
I’m in the US and my favourite incense is Timbuktu but I would love to try this one. Thanks
Hi, I live in the USA. I have never sampled anything from this house sadly! My favorite incense scent is Incensed Short Fuse by Smell Bent. Thanks for the chance, and of course you can use my email.
My favorite Tauer fragrance is probably Miriam, although I love Le Maroc pour Elle and L’Air du Desert Marocain almost as much. I’m in the US. Thanks for the drawing!
I live in the US and my favorite Tauer is Lonestar memories.
My favorite incense fragrance is Incense Oud by Kilian. I can provide a US mailing address.
I have a US address, and love my trial set of LADDM/Orange Star/Maroc pour Elle equally, but would love to try the others.
I am in the U.S. And my favorite Tauer scent is PHI with Vanilla Flash a close second. Thank you for the draw!
I do live in the U.S., and I’ve loved every Tauer I’ve tried. I think my favorite tuberose might be the original Chloe. That stuff really lets ’em smell you coming!
Thank for the generous offer. I can provide a US address.
My three favorite Tauers are Zeta and Rose Flash and also Miriam. They are each in their own way so beautiful. Somehow I get overwhelmed by the ‘tauerade’ in his incense fragrances.
My favorite incense fragrances are Trayee, Kyoto and Incense Pure.
For tuberose I would pick these as my favorites: Beyond Love by Kilian and Madonnas Truth or Dare.
I have a U.S. address, and would love to win! My favourite Tauer perfume has to still be L’Air du Desert Marocain, but I love sniffing anything he does, even if it turns out not to be “me.” I also like Rose Chyprée and Lonestar Memories.
My favourite incense is probably Eau d’Italie Sienne l’Hiver, for various reasons, but I’m also a fan of Comme des Garçons Avignon, and a really good basic incense that I still keep around, especially for travel, is Crazylibellule Encens Mystic (it has amazing staying power for a solid, too). Really, I pretty much love anything with incense.
ooh- nice giveaway!
I live in the U.S
Fave Tauer – probably Reverie du Jardin.
I live in the US, and my favorite tuberose fragrance is Tubereuse Criminelle!
I live in the US and my favorite tuberose is Moon Bloom by Hiram Green.
I’m in the US, love Une Rose Chypree, favorite incense is almost everything. Right now, Parfums d’Empire Wazamba. Thanks, Robin!
Yes I live in the US, and my favorite from the line is Incense Rose. Incense, I could go with Bond Silver, or Rein Intense Incense if I feel ridiculous. Thanks!
i live in the US and my favorite tuberose is carnal flower. My favorite incense is passage du enfer by l’artisan and avingon. Is there any niche line comparable to frederic malle? thanks.
Wow, thanks for the giveaway! I live in the US, and I can’t pick just one favorite Tauer. My top 3 are Rose Flash, L’ADDM and Une Rose Chypre.
Thanks for the giveaway ! I live in the US. My favorite tuberose fragrances are Carnal Flower and Fracas, but I wear Madonna Truth or Dare more often because it’s cheap as chips and lovely. Never tried a Tauer…
I am an incorrigible incense freak–i bathe my house in the stuff and myself, come fall. Though I haven’t a favorite, these days I’ve been wearing Incense Pure from Sonoma Scent Studio–the harde stuff.! I live in the U.S. Behind a church, naturally. Would like v. much to sniff a Tauer incense, I do love their L’Air du Desert Marocain. Thanks so much…xx
I really love the smell of incense, and especially when the weather gets cooler. It just puts me in the mood for the cold. Some of my favorites are: Eau des Baux by L`Occitane, Amber Absolute by Tom Ford and Ouarzazate by Comme des Garcons. Would love to have these 2 offerings by Tauer! I live in the U.S. Thank you…
I live in the US. My favorite Tauer fragrance is definitely LDDM. Thanks for chance.
I live in the US and of course you can use my email.
a) Favorite Tauer: Vetiver Dance or Zeta
b) Favorite Tuberose: Ooh this is tough.. Maybe Lush Sikkim Girls
c) Favorite Incense: Comme des Garcons Kyoto
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauers are Une Rose Chypree, Incense Rose, and LADDM. Interested to try these!
I love Tuberose! Fracas is probably the favorite but I keep itching to get some Moon Bloom! Love Tauer’s Roses, especially PHE and Rose Flash…Thanks for the draw! (and I live in the U.S.)
I live in the USA and I’d say my favorite scent with a strong incense note at the moment is Les Copains Homme. Thanks!
I live in the USA and I am really enjoying the Tauerville Vetiver Splash! Would love to try Tauers incense! Thank you for the drawing!
I live in the US, and my favorite fragrance with tuberose in it is Carnal Flower. Such a classic!
What a very generous draw. Living in the USA, I have a bottle of L’air du Desert Morocain and have dabbed samples of Lonestar. I am sure that I would enjoy his Incense Flash and, if I didn’t enjoy it, I have a close friend that would adore the Tuberose.
I live in the US and my favorite Tauer is L’air du Desert Marocain. My favorite tubey frag is probably Carnal Flower. Thanks for the draw!
I live in the US and would love to enter, thank you! While
I already own the wonderful Incense Flash and don’t want to be a hog, I would LOVE the tuberose!
My fave tuberoses are the usual suspects: Carnal Flower, SL T. Criminelle, and Moon Bloom. Big tuberose fan here!
Fave Tauer is either Lonestar Memories or Orange Star. Also my new love! Fave incense is Aperture by Ulrich Lang.
I do live in the US. Favorite Tauer? Oh my. Depends on the day – it’s either Carillon Pour Un Ange or Loretta (which is also a tuberose, and I’m eager to compare it to this new one).
I live in the US.
My favorite tuberose fragrance is fairly expected: the classic Carnal Flower!
Hey Robin thanks for the great draw–of course you can use my email and I do live in the USA. You know I am a Tauer Fan Girl, but Reverie au Jardin is my fave, followed closely by Incense Rose. Crossing my fingers!!!
I live in the U.S. and my favorite Tauerville fragrance is the Rose Flash. It has the depth and reminds me of a rose oil that my friends mom bought in Kuwait. I literally purchase everything that becomes available at Tauerville for a few reasons: the accessible price point, I know everything will be great quality, and it’s really nice to see someone make a side project just for the love and art of fragrance making. I find it really endearing that he has done such a thing. Okay, I’ll stop gushing over Andy now.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauer is Lonestar Memories
I would love to try both of these!!
I’m in the US, and my favorite Tauer is Carillon Pour Un Ange .
I’m in the US. Haven’t really tried many Tauers. My favorite incense is Sideris. Thank you for the generous draw, Robin.
I live in the US, and my favorite Tauer perfume is Eau D’Epices!
I live in the US (and can provide address.)
Favorite Tauer is Orange Star
but it’s a tricky one to pull off.
I live in the US.
I own and love L’Air du Desert Marocain.
