A Fragrance Inspired by the Royal Carnation
Malmaison is more than just an eau de toilette—it is an olfactory ode to the renowned carnation variety that once captured the hearts of the English aristocracy.
Launched in 2000, this women's fragrance by the legendary London brand Floris instantly became a classic of the floral family.
The fragrance's story is inseparably linked to the Malmaison carnation—a variety cultivated with great passion in Victorian England.
It is said that Oscar Wilde himself was an ardent admirer of this flower, and Malmaison transports us back to a time when carnations were worn as decorations on jacket lapels.
Floris, whose history began on Jermyn Street in 1730, captures the spirit of old London and refined taste in this bottle.
The fragrance has a noticeable sillage, making it an ideal choice for evening outings or special occasions.
Despite its vivid character, Malmaison wears elegantly and discreetly, like a true lady. This fragrance is a genuine gift for lovers of classic floral compositions with a spicy accent.
If you are looking for similar fragrances, consider Jeanne Arthes Cassandra Blanc, Yves Rocher Rose Absolue, or Rochas Femme Rochas—they also explore a noble floral theme with spicy nuances.
Malmaison by Floris is more than just a perfume—it is a window into history that you can carry with you. Try it, and you will feel the breath of Victorian gardens.
