Scent Notes
Bergamot, Coconut, Eucalyptus, Jasmine, Melon, Musk, Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang
It begins with a luminous top note explosion of bergamot and orange blossom, brightened by eucalyptus and galbanum for a crisp, green opening. Melon and coconut add a delicate sweetness, while tuberose and ylang-ylang introduce a creamy floral richness. The composition feels clean and airy—never heavy or cloying.
The middle notes reveal a composed heart where jasmine blooms alongside white musk, creating a moderate composed projection that feels present without overwhelming. This is where the fragrance finds its poised character, balancing creamy florals with subtle spice and skin-like warmth. The musk grounds the sweetness, adding an intimate, magnetic quality.
The dry-down settles into a soft, lingering base of musk and white florals that carry the scent for 6–8 hours on skin. With a noticeable sillage, Carnatic Flower projects with understated confidence—a fragrance that announces itself gently, leaving an elegant impression in every room.
