    What do reviewers say about Garofano and Fracas?

    Carnations in fragrance polarize. Garofano does not apologize for its central note. If you find yourself drawn to spiced florals and garden herbs, this 1995 study of carnation still holds its own.Garofano
    Fracas is not subtle and never pretends to be. The tuberose accord is aggressive, the projection is commanding, and this fragrance announces itself from across a room.Fracas
