Real talk
Carnation asks for patience. The opening is unconventional, some find it jarring at first, like a window thrown open to cold air. But that initial bite smooths into something honeyed and warm that.Carnation
Noir de Noir leans harder into earth than into sweetness. The black rose is beautiful, but the truffle and oud make it feel nocturnal rather than romantic.Noir de Noir
