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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with a fresh, fruity profile, make it ideal for casual daytime wear and even light sport. It's pleasant enough for the office but perhaps too playful for formal events or serious dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Carnaval bursts open with a juicy, sweet fruit medley that’s far more tropical than its official notes suggest. Imagine a vibrant mix of apple, mango, and pineapple, creating an immediate splash of sunshine. As it settles, subtle hints of delicate white florals like lily of the valley and gardenia emerge, adding a touch of softness. The dry down is a clean, gentle embrace of musk and a whisper of sandalwood, keeping the overall vibe light and airy.
