Italian term or phrase: tuberosa d'acqua

Pochissimo contesto, purtroppo, è la descrizione di una lozione per il corpo:
"La lozione corpo XXX regala al tatto e all’olfatto una sensazione unica, che unisce freschezza, morbidezza e sensualità, grazie alla carezza acquatica della nebbia di gardenia, delle ninfee, delle tuberose d’acqua ed all’aroma avvolgente dei legni bianchi e del muschio."
