A vintage scent that was in vogue in the early 18th century, the carnation is a mute flower. It does not offer up its fragrance as one would expect through the traditional techniques of distillation or extraction.
As such, each perfumer has creative freedom to interpret the fragrance as they see fit, in the form of an accord.
So very Guerlain, the carnation accord in Îillet Pourpre combines notes of rose and spices.
Apply fragrance to clean skin after showering, targeting pulse points such as wrists and behind the neck for optimal scent diffusion. Use a non-scented moisturizer first to prolong fragrance life. Avoid direct application on clothes and sensitive skin to prevent irritation and preserve the integrity of the scent.
