Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle - CARNAL FLOWER - Eau de Parfum Unisex

As intoxicating as its name suggests, Fracdacric Malles Carnal Flower blooms from delicate beginnings to a dark, seductive heart.Shy to begin with, this multi-faceted fragrance is an ode to awakening evolving from the bashful notes of water fruits (melon) and citrus leaves which lend a verdant freshness, to the heady thrum of tuberose that gives this scent its sensuous appeal. An emblem of forbidden pleasure, this tantalising flower has a depth and mystery that is forbidden to young women in some cultures believed to have the power to intoxicate the senses. With coconut to add a subtle lightness, and camphora to quieten the noise of these opulent blooms, the muse for the fragrance was Fracdacrics aunt (the famous French actress Candice Bergen), who played in the film Carnal Knowledge alongside Jack Nicholson. Voluptuous and decadent, this scent is ruby velvet, black satin and the thrill of an illicit tryst
