  Tulum is an ‘inspiration’ (let’s call it that 🙂) of the legendary and discontinued Batucada. If you know it, it’s 90% similar, with a more two-dimensional, synthetic, and slightly heightened marine scent that sometimes smells like a harbor. If you don’t know it, it smells like a Caipirinha-style alcoholic drink, with cane sugar, hints of tiare flower, and a salty accord that gives a little cup effect on the beach, all over an amber base without patchouli for better longevity. It’s a very sugary amber that reminds me of rum and coke left in the glass. Very fun, cheerful, and a great launch if it weren’t an ‘inspiration’. But hey, since the other one isn’t available anymore…

  This perfume is the latest launch (2025) from Simone Andreoli’s Tropical Escapes collection. It’s green at first, somewhat resinous and woody—not coniferous, but from palms and exotic plants. Anyone who’s been in a tropical jungle will recognize it (it evokes Mexico, Colombia, and Madagascar); it’s quite well done. Deep down, I sense indefinite fruity notes and light marine notes that come and go with the evolution. It doesn’t seem like a summer scent at all; sometimes you don’t have to take fragrances and their stories literally. It reminds me of classic green fougère perfumes like Loewe’s Essence or L’Artisan’s Fou d’Absinthe, but in a modern, carefree, and original version. If you want an autumn that doesn’t evoke the darkness of a European forest, but rather an ‘escape’ to the density of a tropical jungle, this is your perfume. Scent: 10/10 Sillage: 7/10 Longevity: 8/10

  Just got it, and honestly, it’s an 85-90% clone of L’Artisan’s Batucada, but with insane performance. On my skin, the original lasted a short time and didn’t project much, but this Tulum, with just 3 sprays, is going crazy for the past two hours. That said, the 35-degree heat in Madrid is probably helping. I don’t know how long it will last, but if it hits 6 hours with this projection (hopefully it drops a bit, it might be overwhelming), it’s more than enough. I grabbed it for 97€; I went through two bottles of Batucada last summer and it lasted 4 or 5 hours, but this one looks way stronger. It’s a bit less fresh and deeper. Batucada was for all day, this gives off a summer night vibe… late night if you’re in a hurry. I’m not sure if I’d wear it during the day at the beach with all that heat and humidity, but for going out partying this summer at night, absolutely yes.
