This review is of the current formulation, EdT: <br></br> I dearly wanted to love this one, but it brings out the note in carnation that smells like those thick, plasticky waterproof bandaids. ...

I have mixed feelings about carnation, my favourite carnation-based fragrances are Dianthus and Fragonard's Billet Doux, which are round, soft carnation-based fragrances, but this one is too much...

The gold standard for floral perfumes. Almost every floral fragrance smells "grandma-y" on me, but Bellodgia does not. Weirdly, guys seem to really like this scent. I've worn it out many times and...

None of the notes in this are lily, but that's what it smells like to me. It is much more "white floral" than any of the other Carons I've smelled (Narcisse Noir, Nuit de Noel, Nocturnes). I...

I really wanted to love this, as I do like carnation, and love the 1930s era, but I just couldn't. Maybe too "vintage" for me, and I thought I liked that type of fragrance. If you have to "make"...

Absolutely nauseating. Could not wait to wash this off. I thought I might like this because I love the carnation in Guerlain's Terracotta Voile D'Ete. I was wrong.

Gorgeous clovey carnation with Vanilla and possibly a note of civet lurking very low. Elegant and layered If you like carnation, you must try this classic. My husband doesn't like carnation, but...

I too fell in love with JAR Diamond Water, but couldn't justify the expense so went on the hunt for a more budget friendly carnation. I tried both Caron Bellodgia and Lorenzo Villoresi Garofano. ...

Goes on sweetly, as if to say, "hello, I'm a Caron," and to portend that lovely base that finishes all Caron fragrances. Then, it takes an abrupt turn into the cool carnations and green violets...

Beautiful pure carnation solo-floral. I don't know what other florals are supposed to be in Bellodgia, but all I smell on MY skin is beautiful, creamy, pure, white & pink carnations. With soft,...

Bellodgia is a classic scent. It's classic floral, classic feminine, and classic French! It has been an inspiration to many other amazing fragrances (L'air du Temps -- YSL Paris, Balmain Ivoire)...

I didn't really like this one. Bellodgia is mainly carnation on me - quite a cool, spicy, almost medicinal one. There is some rose in the blend, but I can't really detect any other floral notes. ...

Bellodgia is Daltroff's homage to the carnation, the inspiration for other such lovelies as L'Air du Temps, Patou's Adieu Sagesse, Frances Denney's Hope, Coup de Fouet, etc. I'm happy to own a...

This review is for the parfum. This fragrance starts out as a spicy rose scent and the rose is fairly pronounced. This fades after a few hours and drys to a spicy carnation scent. The spices are...

I really love this so far. The opening note is great!! So rosey and warm, bright red, glowing yellow and orange. I don't know the history of talcum powder but I wouldn't be surprised if Bellodgia...

Bellodgia is carnation, but that doesn't begin to explain its softness, creaminess, and luminosity. It's not florist carnations but a field of clove pinks, warm and sunny, with the scent of roses...
