Smoky & Earthy

Floral

Carnation smells like a spiced, slightly sweet clove with a peppery warmth—imagine biting into a clove bud, then discovering floral honey beneath. It's powdery and slightly creamy, reminiscent of old-fashioned talcum powder mixed with carnation flowers from a florist's shop. There's an almost anise-like quality, a whisper of cinnamon, and something vaguely soapy and aldehydic that feels nostalgic and refined rather than purely floral.
