Carissa Flower

Carissa Flower, from Amouroud, is described equally as fresh and floral, built on just four notes.

The composition pairs flowers with sea air. Osmanthus brings a soft, apricot-like floral note with a faint leathery edge, delicate and slightly fruity. Lilac adds a fresh, powdery and gently green spring floral, the kind of scent associated with gardens in May. Sea salt and salt give a mineral, airy freshness, like a breeze off the sea, which is where the fresh character comes from and which lifts the flowers so they feel light and clean rather than sweet.

With so few notes, the scent reads as one soft impression of salty flowers rather than a story in stages. The profile suggests spring and summer, daytime and the office, as well as holidays by the sea. It is meant to be worn by anyone who likes delicate florals with a salty, mineral freshness, and who prefers a light, airy scent to something heavy or sweet.
