Again, I'm blinding sniffing at this and the name made me expect carnation (no Idea why?) but no. You are however treated to a really beautiful floral, not quite watery or green enough to be flower shop or hyacinths nor is it indolic or characteristically exotic or waxy enough to be anything else. Not having a great repertoire of florals I'd say this is a white floral, muguet, gardenier perhaps? in the opening at least because as it wears on becomes more like a light jasmine but I've got to say it's cliche free. This kept my attention and excitement throughout, in the centre in leans towards a kind of benzaldhyde, cherry/almond note, which comes out of nowhere frankly. Then into that pale aloof jasmine that real jasmine lovers probably won't dig because it's not full blooded enough. As a modern 'white floral', I found it excellent, truly worth checking out and a fresh, floral I'd gladly wear in the height of summer or something? I wouldn't buy it though. Bertrand and Crivelli have done well here.
