Carnation Essence Oil

Floral, Spicy Clove-Like & the Divine Flower

Carnation is one of the oldest cultivated flowers in the world — named Dianthus by the Greek botanist Theophrastus, meaning "divine flower." Its name in English comes from the Greek carnis, meaning flesh, a reference to the original blush-pink color of the bloom. First discovered in the Far East, carnation cultivation spread to Europe in the late 13th century, carried by Roman monks who recognized its beauty and healing power. Its fragrance is unmistakably distinctive: floral and warm, with a spicy, clove-like depth that makes it richer and more complex than most florals. It promotes healing and vitality — a fragrance as restorative as it is beautiful. Uncut, alcohol-free, and beautifully long-lasting.
