Reviews of Carnation ![]() Mimi Gardenia United StatesShow all reviews | An interesting scent and I am trying to marry the ad copy and name with the fragrance itself. I don't know how a maiden's blooming cheek smells abit skanky but I am allowing for 'artisitc licence' here ! . 20th April, 2011. |

| Morgaine Show all reviews | Skanky. Big, skanky, *dirty* top notes, very floral and very indolic. Getting some leather too. However, there's an oddly synthesized flavour to its skank; plasticine, melting rubber? Can't quite put my finger on it. Like the rubber-tired sportscar that's Bvlgari Black went and did a hand break turn in a bed of decaying jasmine petals. 22nd October, 2009. |
![]() Dhr. DeLuxe Show all reviews | Hmmm, sweet! But sweet in a cheeky way. I don't know wheter I like it because it's so feminine or so brutal. It takes a bit of nerve for a man to sport this one, but if I do, it feels really decadent in a J.-K. Huysmans way, or in a vicuña sweater way. 2nd February, 2009. |
![]() Stereotomy NetherlandsShow all reviews | Ah, an unisex floral that makes his/her presence known. I don't get much from the topnotes, because the middle- and basenotes are so overwhelming. I get a lot of jasmin that is spiced up, and I certainly can smell the woods and amber in de basenotes. 9th December, 2008. |
![]() Jemimagold United StatesShow all reviews | I wish I could like Mona di Orio's Carnation, I really do. But I just don't. Carnation is an oddly depressing old fashioned smell of leather and powder, but not in a good way. Two of the three times I tried this, I got the smell that you smell when you are near the rack of rental leather shoes at a bowling alley. Not foot odor but the smell of worn leather shoes. I was mystified as to how it could be called Carnation when it bears absolutely no resemblance to that flower's spicy smell. Then I read on-line that it is called Carnation because it is meant to be reminiscent of a "bloom on a maiden's cheek". Sheesh. What will those marketers and copywriters think of next?? 19th June, 2008. |
