Carmel Boheme

The start of Carmel Boheme is really potent, like strong, delicious rice wine, and slightly-going-off(but still in a good way) alcohol-smelling, fermented fruits like strawberries and cherries. Soon there’s this sweet, berry-hint and clean, uplifting sweet jasmine, tuberose kinda essential oil scent dominants the perfume for several good hours. In the beginning of the white-flower domination, there is some 90s-strawberry-flavoured-bubble-gum hint, and then the jasmine goes warmer, and some creamy gardenia scent comes in to stay. I’m not a fan of white flowers, so it’s somewhat headache inducing to me, but I’m sure any white flower lovers would find this one quite nice to try on. Then dry down is soft, quite coconut-y and vanilla-y creamy which is slightly tropical to me. IN the end when Carmal Boheme fades into a skin scent, I can smell something slightly woodsy and creamy, somewhat it has a similar spirit to Havana pour Homme. Overall, it is a nice white flower perfume with some delicious edible touch in the beginning and end. I would recommend it to anyone who loves jasmine and gardenia.

three or four scents in the line seems to be a variation on the same theme. The theme goes as transparent white florals with noticed differences on supporting notes. Carmel Boheme starts dewy and honeyed and slowly it morphs in a sweet and tropical fruity scent. I'm not impressed by it but in the drydown that labdanum and real liquid honey take the first seat i find it very wearable.
