Carnal flower for sure 🥰

Maison Violette "Compliment" by Natalie Lorson.

[@laurenevans2077]

I struggle a bit with tuberose, but love Rouge Malachite. Definitely going to get a sample of CF.

[@yukiaditya7352]

@@mitrumixi none other than this for sure… ❤

[@mamoni7703]

Love this. My favourite perfume of all time. It’s the only perfume I broke down and paid a ridiculous amount of money for because I just couldn’t live without it. Lots of happy childhood memories attached to tuberose and this one by FM is quite photorealistic and as close as possible to smelling the entire flower. My skin eats most perfumes and even though this is a powerhouse, it doesn’t last as long on my skin as it does on others people. Oh well, I have a travel spray for top ups, that’s how much I love it.

[@DeliciousDelights]

Aww I'm glad you got something that makes you so happy 😊

[@janelevey3435]

I love Carnal Flower!

[@ebo7310]

I purchased this 2 months ago. I enjoy it. I can't get with Portrait of a Lady.

[@samenuasesher]

I love this and have a small amount left in my bottle. I didn’t realise it had eucalyptus in it and that freshness and greeness is so unique in tuberose scents.

[@luzbelmar6244]

I looooveee Carnal Flower. I enjoy it even more when in warm weather, I dont know, there is a magic i detect only during summer🌼🌸🌺. Thanks for the review

[@DeliciousDelights]

😍🤗

Hey Arlene. I have a strange relationship with Tuberose. I don’t dislike it but I like it in some scents and not others. I’m willing to sample this just to see how it works for me. I love POAL.

[@dwoychick]

Don’t waste your time or $

[@janelturner581]

Fracas is a one of the first perfumes I purchased a long time ago. I ran out but need to revisit and get another bottle. I remember it smelling so good. Very nostalgic to me when I come across someone wearing it.

[@juliettirina6829]

Carnal Flower, one of my favourite fragrances from the house FM and my most favourite Tuberose scent in the world.

[@julia-zf8sj]

Soon as I saw Zoe Saldana saying this is her signature scent I started searching for it and came across your review! I will order the sample bottle first though! Thanks xxx

[@Sweet_N_Sour_Princess]

Hi Arlene! love Carnal Flower ❤ it’s creamy smooth with a slightly green hint. I have been sampling this for ages and need to pick up a bottle. Hope it’s not reformulated.

[@clarissarendon2545]

You’re so on time with this video! Just yesterday I decided to hunt for a tuberose dominant scent! I’m looking for a tuberose that can be worn all season, signature type scent. I’ve never smelled the original Carnal Flower but I have a dupe from Dua and I love it! Sadly, I don’t think I’ll ever own the original. It’s just out of my price range but I will continue to buy the dupe while I can. Thanks for sharing!

[@roxannelewis235]

Carnal Flower and Bottega Veneta Knot Eau Absolue are my TOP 2 fragrances! I love them so much that I have back up bottles 😍

[@tara_27244]

The rep in holt renfrew sprayed 2 sprays on one wrist. Def too much in one spot. Within an hour I sneezed and headache formed. So I think a single spray on each wrist must be enough and on neck as the maximum. I’ll have to play around with it when I receive my order.

[@luxesbeauties]

Carnal Flower is my favorite tuberose fragrance and I love the note of tuberose... in fact, it's my favorite fragrance in my rather large collection... performance is mazing and it's such beautiful & sexy scent!

[@penelopepalm]

I can not wear tuberose. But the way you describe this one sounds amazing. One day I may sample

[@dantrapp155]

This is the only floral dominate perfume I love and had to get a bottle of. It's intoxicating.

[@jessicajefferson3911]

How many sprays do you suggest of this one? I have it too and I think that I sprayed too much on. I put on 5 sprays and it's giving me a headache. Do you suggest 1 or 2 sprays?

[@DeliciousDelights]

I prefer 2 sprays. I've oversprayed this before and also got a headache 😫

[@Jenn_N]

Hello Arlene, CF is a classic from everything I have seen about it in Frag comm. I haven't had the opportunity to smell it yet. It sounds very rich and opulent. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it. ~ Jenn

[@DeliciousDelights]

Hi! Ahh it's definitely a great one to test imo 😍

[@fghd535]

This is the only perfume i dont get bored 1 month after buying. Still my fave.

[@someasiandude8645]

As a guy, I've been looking around for fragrance that is a solid white floral fragrance, but one that men can actually pull off. I find white florals very hard to pull of for men simply because they do lean very feminine. Having read the reviews I think most agree on the fact that Carnal Flower is more feminine leaning and would suit women better, however, that is not to say a man can't pull it off. I will say though that I feel like you need to be a specific type of guy with a specific fashion to really pull this off, because I think fragrances should often compliment your image. I'm only 19 and I think this fragrance is more appreciated on a guy by older/more mature women as opposed to let's say females around my age. I think I'd throw them off a bit and make them raise a questionable eyebrow. But at the same time I think there is something quite fascinating about kind of emitting 2 images of oneself if that makes sense. Like appearance based you may come off as your typical 19y/o guy but the smell you emit makes you seem very gentle and kind (that's at least what I imagine this fragrance smells like if a guy wore it). What do you think? Do you think it's too complex for a 19y/o guy to wear?

[@FreshGrey-pm4vw]

the biggest tuberose bomb I own is Queen of Sheba by Attar- very authentic tuberose and very strong.

[@anitajoels2064]

Half way thru wearing this scent I feel nauseous almost like on a boat swaying but then I feel settled maybe the eucalyptus not sure what makes me feel light headed swaying feeling

[@deannas1515]

Are you familiar with Heartless Helen from Penhaligon's? I'm wondering how this compares to that. I think Heartless Helen is too strong of tuberose.

[@DeliciousDelights]

I don't think I've tried that one yet

[@rojadabidabparfum5606]

can i used The hairmist as a fragrance?

[@DeliciousDelights]

Sure, why not? 😊

[@e.starling141]

This is one I won't try because I'm unfortunately just not a tuberose fan. I've tried to like it but every perfume where it's prominent I've disliked. Didn't care for Gucci Bloom, Twilly or Ralph Lauren Woman for example. (On the bright side I guess it saves me a little money. Lol.) But it's really the only flower I dislike. Though I am on the fence with orange blossom too. I only like it in small doses. For example I can handle it in Love Don't be Shy, but the similar Sintra is bordering on too much of the orange blossom. And I also don't care for Libre or My Way or any Le Labo perfume with either of these notes featured prominently. Hope I'm not the only weird one like this. Lol.

[@DeliciousDelights]

Lol I'm sure there are many who feel the same 🤗

[@dwoychick]

I just ordered a sample and for me it’s a no go. I don’t like it at all.

[@jackeddemon]

It’s pronounced tuberose. Not toob-rose

[@das_ein]

Yes, this is so good! I don’t wear it enough because it’s the only beast mode scent I can tolerate, but I have to be ready. Steady my stance and not get bowled over. 😆 I also enjoy Memo Marfa. Less intense but still tuberose dominant to my nose. ❤ The worst tuberose? Fracas! Almost broke my nose. 🫤

[@DeliciousDelights]

Lol yes wearing this almost feels like a commitment. Fracas...ohhh I should try that one again 😆
