by Carner Barcelona
Besos by Carner Barcelona presents a soft, powdery, and clean scent centered around iris, musk, benzoin, and vanilla. It opens with a sharp, slightly astringent quality—often described as synthetic or detergent-like—with citrus and pepper notes that fade quickly into an iris-musk base. The drydown is mostly delicate, creamy, and subtly sweet, resembling a high-quality body lotion or clean laundry. Some users find it pleasantly soothing and comforting, while others detect a persistent soapiness, chalkiness, or synthetic sharpness that can feel unpleasant initially. Longevity is strong, with many noting over 12 hours of scent on skin. The projection is moderate, rarely intrusive, making it well-suited for day wear, especially in warm climates. Though unisex in intent, the fragrance leans feminine in feel and is rarely worn at night.
