Carner Barcelona Rima XI is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Sonia Constant. Rima XI opens with Pepper, Cardamom, Saffron, and Mint, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Carner Barcelona's Rima XI carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This one's a proper chameleon. Expect a creamy, warm spicy vanilla that's either a cosy gourmand dream or a 'soapy aftershave' shocker, depending on your bottle, your skin, and perhaps the alignment of the stars. It's divisive, but when it hits right, it's a beauty.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Rima XI opens with a fresh, peppery kick, sweetened by saffron and lively mint, with a cardamom whisper. It then melts into a heart of warm cinnamon and nutmeg, balanced by a hint of coriander and jasmine. The dry down is a comforting embrace of creamy vanilla, soft sandalwood, and amber, creating a serene, gently spiced warmth that lingers on the skin.
