Hiram Green will launch Philtre, a new natural fragrance.
For as long as we’ve been falling in love, we’ve been making potions to induce that feeling in others. We called them philtres. These, when drunk, would cause the recipient to fall madly in love with the giver. Such was the story of Tristan and Isolde, and the fate that befalls Titania in A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Perfumes are our modern-day love potions—potent and bewitching, with the ability to change moods instantly. This is my version. No unicorn dust or dragon’s blood, just the world’s most beautiful flowers, spices, and resins, built around the flower of love: carnation. Use it carefully.
Additional notes include flower stems, clove, rose, jasmine, vanilla and black pepper.
Hiram Green Philtre will be available in 50 ml Eau de Parfum, €195.

This might be one time those annoyingly obvious warnings might be in order, aka Do Not Drink -!
Ha!
A carnation forward scent = must try.
Same, I adore carnations.
Agree, and a good one is so rare.
Interested to hear how the carnation lovers feel about this one
