Floral amber, fruity, rose-rich, woody, musky, and warm spicy.

Top Notes: Black Cherry, Saffron, Pink Pepper

Heart Notes: Rose de Mai, Violet, Cashmere Wood, Peony

Base Notes: Frankincense, Myrrh, Amber, Musk

Carmina opens with black cherry, saffron, and pink pepper for a rich fruit-and-spice effect before Rose de Mai, violet, peony, and cashmere wood create a plush floral heart. Frankincense and myrrh add resinous depth through the drydown while amber and musk smooth the base and extend its warmth. The result is elegant but assertive, balancing dark fruit, rose, powdery florals, spice, soft woods, incense, and musk without becoming a straightforward cherry gourmand.

Summary

Carmina is a modern floral-amber Eau de Parfum built around black cherry, Rose de Mai, saffron, and cashmere wood. Pink pepper brightens the opening while violet and peony add plush floral texture. Frankincense and myrrh deepen the base, where amber and musk give the fragrance a warm polished finish. The result balances fruit, florals, woods, spice, and resin without becoming a simple cherry gourmand, suited to shoppers who want a bold romantic floral with darker fruit and incense underneath.
