sambuka.2009 – :
How strange! Pyramid above hints at something powerfully spicy and warm – but on me this is a cool, fresh, pale-pink carnation freshly picked from the field with a bit of dew still on it. On me it’s discreet, and grows softer and more powdery within a couple of hours. Lovely, feminine, restrained stuff; maybe a bit too ‘classic’ for my personal taste, but beautifully done.

absolutely stunning fragrance, ordered a bottle as soon as I sampled. has the smell of when you just blow a candle out , which I love and then settles down to an incense/carnation mix, heavenly scent.

This is spicy, peppery carnation/geranium.

This opens on my skin with fresh fluffy carnations! Beautiful and stunning! This is really well done and uplifting. There is a hint of clove and rose and pepper but for me it reminds me of sweet Pinks or carnations in the garden. It is almost a true soliflore but better as it slighltly shifts and settles to a long drydown. Oriza is one of the best niche perfume houses and does stunning fragrances. This is long lasting and beautiful. Drydown is gorgeous and for me if the DD is good then its FB worthy. The others that I like by Oriza are Relique and Reve…..beautiful.

By contrast to the previous review, I experience RO as the closest thing to a real carnation I have ever smelled in perfumery. For me, it immediately becomes the reference for carnation soliflores. There are many “carnation” scents, but none smell like the real thing. Making RO unique.
I do detect clove, some violet leaf, pepper and rose, but for the most part, the individual notes do not stand out as such. What you get is a blend that stands on its own.
RO was not a big projector for me, but seems to have pretty good longevity.

This is one of the strangest fragrances I’ve ever experienced. It creates a general feeling of uncomfort, for me.
It smells oily – if a smell could have a greasy texture, this would! Not one particular note really stands out, just a vague, rubbery floral, which I believe is the geranium, having smelled them in real life.
There is nothing else in the fragrance besides that scent, from start to finish. It’s stale, flat, and peculiar. Almost has a ‘funeral parlor’ feel to it.
And, apparently “Oeillet” translates into carnation – but there is no carnation note listed?
