Description For as long as we've been falling in love, we've been making potions to induce that feeling in others. We called them philtres. These, when drunk, would cause the recipient to fall madly in love with the giver. Such was the story of Tristan and Isolde, and the fate that befalls Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream. Perfumes are our modern-day love potions; potent and bewitching, with the ability to change moods instantly. This is Hiram Green's version. No unicorn dust or dragon's blood, just the world's most beautiful flowers, spices, and resins, built around the flower of love: carnation. Use it carefully.

Isabella L. ★★★★★

The flower stems and clove give it a green, almost bitter edge that keeps the rose and vanilla from going too sweet. I sprayed it on before work and could still catch the carnation warmth on my jacket eight hours later. It's the kind of scent that feels like it was made for crisp autumn evenings.

Isabella T. ★★★★☆

The black pepper keeps it from turning too sweet on my skin, which I appreciate. I do wish the jasmine came through a bit stronger, but the dry down into vanilla and resins is lovely and lasts a full workday.
