Carnal Flower Frederic Malle ( Color is a little bit faded )
White Floral
Frédéric Malle Carnal Flower opens with eucalyptus and melon in a combination that is immediately unusual and slightly startling — the eucalyptus cool and medicinal, the melon watery and sweet, together creating an opening that subverts expectation and prepares you for a composition that has no interest in being predictable.
Tuberose and coconut form a heart that is the most fully realized tuberose accord in modern perfumery — the tuberose here creamy, heady, slightly narcotic in its richness, the coconut adding a tropical sweetness that amplifies rather than softens the flower's intensity. Carnal Flower lives up to its name completely.
White musk and sandalwood create a dry-down that keeps the tuberose alive and beautiful through every phase. Carnal Flower is for those who want to experience tuberose at its absolute limit — who believe that beauty should be felt as much as smelled, and who are prepared for something genuinely, memorably extraordinary.
