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.

With long-lasting performance and moderate sillage, this isn't a scent for the gym, but it's perfect for intimate dates and evening wear. Its classic appeal also makes it suitable for formal occasions, though it might be a bit too present for a quiet office.

About

Blue Carnation Eau de Toilette lists carnation, clove, anise, pepper and vanilla, without a top, heart and base. Carnation leads with a peppery, clove-like spice. Anise adds a touch of sweetness and pepper keeps it dry, while vanilla rounds off the edges. It is a classic spicy floral with a vintage character, warm and a little old-fashioned.
