What does Rosa Carnivora smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling the room. Leisure, work and daytime wear lead, with evenings not far behind. It is unisex, though voters mostly read it as feminine, followed by classic.

It opens with pink pepper, Rosa centifolia and damask rose, the pepper sharpening the rose against a green freshness. In the heart, floral notes and Haitian vetiver give it a woody backbone. The base of Indonesian patchouli and cistus dries down powdery and creamy. Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Nude and Diptyque Orphéon (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
