About

Carthage Etoile unfurls with a fleeting spark of bergamot, quickly ushering in a dark, almost jammy rose. The heart beats with a rich, smoky incense, softened by the plush, enveloping quality of cashmeran. It settles into a luxurious, warm amber and animalic musk base, creating an aura of mysterious allure. It's dense, resinous, and utterly captivating, a modern take on an oriental classic.
