Real talk
Carmen is not a polite fragrance. It starts as a cocktail and ends as a campfire, with leather and clove doing the heavy lifting in between. If you want something safe, look elsewhere.Carmen
It's lighter than expected. That surprises people. The vetiver isn't heavy or smoky, it's clean, green, earthy in the way damp soil smells after rain. Some find that a disappointment.Wild Vetiver
