That's what I thought, I remember growing them when I was growing up in Malaysia. We believe that one of our deities " Kwan Yin " loves this flower and very often on special occasion make this offering to her. The floral wax is nice but the Abs smell dreaful. I haev diluted the saple in a little alcohol. I hope this would perhaps bring out the floral, sweet scent that I remember.

To my nose it is very tenacious and has many layers. I would say that if you smell it straight from the vial, the top note hits you immediatly, which when I smell it, it brings the word " tuberous " or " vegetable " into my head, almost chlorophyl but more fleeting thankfully...then once that lifts the heady smell of lilys gathers and swells to a floral abundance. It needs time...rather than dilution... IMO... to give way to it's heart...and if you leave it long enough it has an almost powdery dryout! Does this sound right to anyone? Maybe I need to get my nose checked? Instead of diluting it just rub the tiniest smudge on a piece of cotton and leave it alone for a half an hour/hour/day...ahh then it stirs the soul...listen to me ranting, anyway my two cent's worth.

I would also describe a note like sweetgrass, or a meadow, and even a hint of bubble gum(wintergreen?).

I have very negative associations with lilies through no fault of their own. Just a terrible time in my life when the room was full of the smell of stargazer lilies. I used to love the smell but since that time, I can't stand to be around them. I really think maybe tuberose reminds me of stargazer lilies!

If a mean grandmother always wore lilac perfume, odds are you'll have a negative association with lilacs and such. > But the idea about vibrations is definitely food for > thought. It makes a certain amount of sense, especially if you study quantum physics, which claims that if you go into the smallest of subatomic particles, there is no matter, just energy. There have been some very cool studies in regard to vibration and energy that appear to validate these theories. Think about something else. Have you ever walked into a room, even an empty one, and felt funny for reasons you couldn't place? And then found out later a fight or something bad happened in that room shortly beforehand? Whether you want to call it leftover vibration or emotion or energy, you're feeling something. Feng shui is based on balancing energy in a room. Essential oils are the concentrated scent (and according to this theory, energies) of a plant so it's logical to believe that they would generally raise vibrations, just like a walk in a garden can lift a mood. So it's not much of a leap to believe that certain plants would have stronger or higher vibrations than others. It also sheds new light on why certain cultures, such as the Egyptians, placed such high value on perfume, scented oils, fragrance, etc. Sounds like they knew something. It could also explain -- at least in my mind -- why synthetic scents feel so icky to many of us. A friend of mine worked with an aromatherapist to create a line of essential oil blends and they were working primarily to create certain vibrations moreso than scents, but they all smelled heavenly. Unfortunately, my friend moved across country, which ended the line because they found different batches of oils they used as ingredients " felt " different and that would affect the proportions. Again, it makes sense if you think about how weather, soil conditions, harvesting methods, time between harvesting and distillation, etc. can affect the final scent of an oil. Why wouldn't they also affect its vibration as well? Sorry if this went a bit off track. I work with both color therapy (which is totally related to vibration) and essential oils so it's something I ponder often. Beth -- " Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality.

As you probably know alot has been written about memory association with aroma.... ' We all have a subconscious memory-bank which is loaded with good and bad associations. When we smell a long-forgotten aroma, the memory of a particular person, event or whole period of life floods back to us, complete with emotional associations. A grown man smells lavender and a shiver runds down his back... and he may not even know why.... - Ann Worwood Janita. --------------------------------- The all-new goes wherever you go - free your email address from your Internet provider.

I have to be careful...... I am so sensitive I can pick up moods from people by their energy vibration and tone of voice. Music is a powerful vibrational force and again the very essence of variants of energy in a note can create different tonalities which cannot be explained but can be felt. I think plants do have different vibrations and their way is certainly through odour. It may have to do with climatic conditions where they live and how to attract the insects necessary for their pro-creation. Janita --------------------------------- Try the all-new .

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 > I have to be careful...... I am so sensitive I can pick up moods from people by their energy vibration and tone of voice. A wise, old Belorussian grandmother taught me to always put perfume or essential oils on the back of your neck to protect you from negativity. I won't bore with the reasoning and it's not a cureall but it does help. My friends and I have experimented with feeling the vibrations of different essential oils, both from different plants and varieties of a single plant, like lavender. I've snuck in a few synthetics now and then, too, just to test them. You can feel a difference not just between the real and the fakes, but between varieties of the same essential oils. > Music is a powerful vibrational force and again the very essence of variants of energy in a note can create different tonalities which cannot be explained but can be felt. Tesh's radio show the other day just mentioned a study that shows that singing improves your mood. Something about the vibration of singing shifts brain chemicals. And Dr. Emoto in Japan has shown a difference the water crystals formed by water exposed to heavy metal music versus classical. The former tends to loose shape while the latter forms beautiful patterns. That said, I'd love to see if there's a difference between heavy metal music with positive lyrics versus that with negative lyrics. The latter are more common, sadly. That's why I think it's great that Ruth's soap is made while singing specific songs. It's a very cool way to boost the vibration even more. > I think plants do have different vibrations and their way is certainly through odour. It may have to do with climatic conditions where they live and how to attract the insects necessary for their pro-creation. That's why they found white flowers tend to be more fragrant than red. Botanists think it has to do with attracting insects -- the paler colors may be harder to see so they have another way of getting their attention. You know, there's probably another reason why natural perfumes feel better to people than synthetics. People go into natural perfumery because they love it, not just to make money. That love and passion goes into every product made whereas synthetics are made in factories and who knows what the moods of the workers are. It's sort of like the cake made by the loving grandmother versus storebought. Beth -- " Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality. If you can dream it, you can make it so.

To me, it's a top, heart and base note all in one. The incredible " reach " of the tuberose introduces a perfume, just as a top note would, the heart is strong and it lasts so long, it qualifies as a base note in my palette. >Does this sound right to anyone?

I adore Tuberose absolute. There are different absoutes available from France and India. They are both wonderful when diluted. They are a little funky at first just straight from the botttle. I was amazed in India when I walked in rows of tuberose blooming...it was really beautiful. Almost as nice as the jasmine fields. It has a soft, floral, baby powder fragrance that you really don't get unless you dilute it way down. It was very alluring. My favorite is to go to the market and get a dozen stalks....it really fills the whole house. You have to squeeze open the buds to get them to open faster...and they don't last that many days.

The tuberose is as it should be, narcotic and heady. You need to really dilute it down to use it, and even then don't expect quite the same as the fresh flower.
