A sweet and elegant perfume dedicated to Colette
History
Carnation is one of the first three fragrances from perfume designer Mona di Orio. This voluptuous floral-Oriental evokes the warm and sensual scent of skin after a day in the sun. Carnation refers not to the flower, but to a French word for skin tone. Hedonistic, sun-drenched… it was designed as an homage to the exciting life of writer Colette. In selected perfume shops.

Geranium and Ylang Ylang sound fine. I have no idea what a gillyflower smells like or what styrax is like. Could be a pass on by without a try. I wanted it to smell floral like a carnation.

J'ai eu l'occasion de découvrir cette fragrance par l'intermédiaire d'un échantillon et pour être honnête je n'est vraiment pas appréciée ; il m'évoque l'odeur d'herbe séchée destiné à l'alimentation des animaux.....
