CreamyWhat does In_Carnation smell like?
Carnation opens the scent, vanilla in the heart turns it creamy and sweet, and rose in the base keeps the floral character going. A fresh, green feel is balanced by a light spicy touch.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, though the few votes so far make that a tentative reading. It suits anyone who likes soft, creamy florals without a gender slant. Composed by Jean-Claude Ellena, its profile sits close to Kenzo Poudre Matcha and L'Erbolario Garofano.
