Tardes
Tardes by Carner Barcelona is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2011 in the niche price tier. It opens with mandarin and coconut, moves into tuberose, jasmine and orange blossom and dries down to sandalwood, musk and vanilla. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Coconut Creamy and tropical. Suncream in the best possible way.
Heart
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
