Carnation
Used in 137+ fragrances on FragranVerse
What it smells like
Carnation, or clove pink, offers a distinctive spicy floral scent with clove-like warmth and honeyed undertones. This classic flower note has a green, slightly peppery character that balances its sweetness, creating a unique fragrance profile that is both floral and aromatic.
How it's used in perfumery
In perfumery, carnation is a sophisticated heart note that adds spicy depth to floral compositions. It pairs well with rose, cinnamon, and other spicy notes, creating classic accords like vintage perfumes like Chanel No. 5.
Fun fact
The spicy scent of carnation comes from its high concentration of eugenol, the same compound that gives cloves their characteristic aroma.
