Parfums Caron Bellodgia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1927, created by Ernest Daltroff. Bellodgia opens with Rose and Carnation, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Clove, and Vanilla. Parfums Caron's Bellodgia carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Bellodgia is a timeless carnation classic, though opinions are sharply divided on its age. Some find it a sophisticated, warm embrace, while others can't shake the 'old fashioned' vibe. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but undeniably a piece of perfume history.

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

Bellodgia opens with a bold, spicy carnation and rich rose, quickly joined by the heady sweetness of lily of the valley and violet, softened by a powdery caress. As it settles, a warm, creamy base of sandalwood, musk, vanilla, and a distinct clove spice emerges, creating a full-bodied floral experience that lingers with a touch of balsamic depth.
