Carnation sits at the center, spiced with clove, anise and pepper over a soft vanilla base. It reads warm and powdery, an old-fashioned floral with a gentle spice that feels comforting and slightly nostalgic.

Roger & Gallet Carnation carries sweetness without letting it define the scent.
Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
