Which Should You Buy?
A modern legend in floral perfumery, Carnal Flower is a mesmerizing, photorealistic tuberose that feels both untamed and elegant. It is lush, green, and narcotic, demanding attention with every luminous, camphoraceous breath.
Flowerhead is a divisive, full-throttle white floral that polarises with its sheer intensity. Expect a beautiful, yet overwhelming, bouquet or a synthetic headache-inducer. It's a statement, certainly not for the faint-hearted.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The fresh, green, and airy white florals with a touch of cooling camphor make Carnal Flower ideal for spring and summer, while its lush richness allows it to work in early fall. Its lack of warmth and amber sweetness makes it less suited for winter.
Occasions
With strong projection and a lush, sensual floral character, Carnal Flower is most at home in romantic or formal settings. Its boldness can be distracting in close quarters like the office or sporty situations.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its beast-mode projection and longevity make it utterly unsuitable for the office, risking offence. However, this powerful sillage is perfect for making an impression on a date or at a formal event. It's too grand for casual wear and far too intense for sport.
