Green Carnation
Pell Wall Perfumes (2012)

You have green (cut grass) and you have carnation…like the name says. But there is more, a handful of spices, especially cloves that makes it heavy, sharp, scratchy; not a happy combination if you ask me. It does make me think of an old man perfume. One hour in and thankfully the cloves are feeling a bit more relaxed and the scent is getting sweeter, not it's mainly a sweet spicy floral with the old vibe remaining there. It's not hard to see that I'm not a fan of this perfume.

I like it a lot.
The opening is quite busy. The rest brilliant.
I don't know if it has been tweaked since the first review, but I think it works.
I'd choose it over Habit Rouge for the Carnation effect.
Good power and lasts for donkeys!

Thumbs up!!

I give this a neutral assessment but I am quite discontent with the scent.
Here's the issue. Granted that a carnation has a brisk, clove-like aspect. But in the real flower, that spicy note is well-tempered and in combination with more gentle, floral notes.
In this scent and on my skin, the clove dominated and essentially obliterated all other elements. There were some nice things there, and when I washed off the scent the reminants which remained were pleasant, even appealing.
Too heavy a hand with the clove. A little clove goes a long way. For me, this was like a vigorous Bay Rum, a style I've never cared for.
Also, there was a rather tiresome hay/grass note. Not a pleasant "cut grass" note, rather a dusky old straw-like note. At time that note was like toasted grain kernels.
The scent was not green as I define green.
I think the scent needs work, for me it was not successful.
