Where it differs: Minerva skips the peach top of Marfa and adds agave, so the tuberose reads a little greener and less creamy, and some owners find it wears closer to skin.

Where it differs: Tuberose Tropical is a 50 ml extrait built on Marfa's tuberose, woody and musk profile, so expect a heavier, oilier wear than Marfa's airy eau de parfum.

Where it differs: Vanilla Coco 21 keeps Marfa's citrus, tuberose and vanilla thread but builds around vanilla and coconut, so the tuberose sits further back and the whole thing smells sweeter.

Buy Marfa ifGo with Marfa if tuberose should be the star.
Buy Utopia Vanilla Coco 21 ifGo with Vanilla Coco 21 if you prefer a sweet coconut-vanilla with a tuberose hint.
