Description
Philtre is a seductive, all-natural love potion of a fragrance built entirely around the flower of love: carnation. This unapologetic woody-floral composition opens with a distinctive green note evoking fresh flower stems and foliage, paired with black pepper spice that dominates the top. The heart reveals a multifaceted carnation accord supported by creamy, velvety notes, maintaining a linear progression throughout wear while the powdery, starchy carnation base remains prominent. The fragrance delivers impressive projection and longevity exceeding 8 hours on skin. Created by Hiram Green for unisex wear.

Reviews
Community Insights
Fragrance enthusiasts and critics consistently praise Philtre as a bold, compelling carnation composition that succeeds as a modern love elixir. The fragrance draws admiration for its full-bodied approach to spicy florals and natural composition, though it's recognized as not for everyone due to its prominent carnation and pepper accords.
Pros
Performance excellence: Delivers impressive sillage with noticeable projection beyond close proximity, with longevity extending well beyond 8 hours on skin while naturally fading to skin scent during dry-down
Signature carnation: Offers a sophisticated, full-bodied carnation experience built around the flower of love, with a distinctive green stem quality rather than sweet petal florality
Quality composition: Formulated as 100 percent natural, avoiding common longevity concerns associated with all-natural fragrances while maintaining a lush, creamy character without excessive sweetness
Cons
Carnation sensitivity: Those who dislike carnation as a fragrance note may find this unapologetic carnation-forward composition overwhelming, requiring sampling before purchase
Pepper dominance: The black pepper spice in the opening is assertive and may not appeal to those preferring softer, less spicy floral fragrances
