    Real talk

    This is carnation for people who thought they didn't like carnation. The absinthe gives it an edge most florals never attempt, not green-natured, not powdery.Green Carnation
    Most chocolate fragrances play it safe. Black Forest leans into the woods, nagarmotha, oud, sandalwood, until the whipped cream arrives like a dessert course you didn't expect.Black Forest
