A decant is a small portion of perfume — typically 2 ml or 3 ml — transferred from an authentic full-size bottle into a glass vial with a sprayer. It lets you live with a fragrance for several wears before committing to a full bottle. LaScentLibrary decants are filled by hand from bottles the owner has personally purchased.

Are these perfumes authentic?

Yes. Every decant is filled from a full-size bottle that the owner has purchased from authorised retailers (boutiques in Cyprus, brand websites, niche-perfume specialty stores). We don't resell concentrates or blends — only the original juice from the original bottle.

We hand-deliver in Paphos, Cyprus, and ship across the rest of Cyprus by courier (typically 1–2 days). For shipments outside Cyprus, please contact us on Telegram @energizer1977 to arrange.

Bank transfer before shipping. After you place an order on the site or via Elena (the AI sommelière), we confirm the order and send payment details on Telegram. Once we see the transfer, we ship.

Can I get help choosing a fragrance?

Yes — the site has Elena, a multilingual perfume sommelière (Russian, English, Greek) who can suggest decants based on what you already love or the mood you're going for. You can also browse by note, by accord family, or by brand.

Tom Ford Tubéreuse Nue — tuberose in the half-light

The white flowers here do not shine; they breathe with skin, resin, and warm air.

Tubéreuse Nue, released in 2021, is built around tuberose, but it does not present it in its familiar dense, almost creamy fullness. Here, it feels as if it has been led away from the sunlit garden and carried into a room with heavy curtains, where warmth still lingers on the skin and the air already holds a dry, spicy shadow. This is an oriental floral fragrance without unnecessary gloss: composed, skin-close, slightly dusky. The opening unfolds with lily and jasmine — white-floral, soft, with the smooth, almost waxy texture of petals. Sichuan pepper does not argue with them, but only gently raises the temperature of the composition: it does not burn, but shimmers, like sharp air close to the skin. The entire introduction sounds quiet, yet there is tension in that quiet. At the heart, tuberose becomes denser and deeper. Its sweetness here is neither confectionary nor honeyed — rather alive, rich, with the green bitterness of the stem and the milky whiteness of a broken flower. Styrax and benzoin give it a resinous, languid undercurrent, while cocoa adds a dry, dark accent, almost powdery, almost bitter. Because of this, the fragrance does not bloom outward widely, but stays closer to the body, like fabric steeped in warmth. In the base, suede, musk, tonka bean, and oud gather everything into a soft, velvety trail. The suede is especially good here: not new, not glossy, but matte, slightly dusted, with a living touch. Musk makes the composition intimate, tonka lends a muted sweetness, and oud does not pull the fragrance into heaviness — it only darkens the edges, adding depth and shadow. Tubéreuse Nue is worth trying slowly, allowing the tuberose to unfold not as a flower in a display window, but as a breath you want to catch more closely.
