  1. I noticed the pronunciation also…being of Italian descent, visiting the country many times and having studied the language. But if you don’t use it you lose it. I haven’t completely lost the language and thought the same thing about the world “garofano”. Just seeing an iItalian word brings back some of the knowledge I once had with that language. Also I enjoyed the carnation post and actually own a few of the scents mentioned. To me the Red Series is the most heady and peppery and brings the flower to mind.

  2. Love Garofano soooooo much. It really is a glorious scent. I wish I were spending that lovely afternoon with you, it sounds so wonderful. Ah, to see beautiful peach and cherry blossom, as opposed to the layer of snow still on the ground here. You need to post pictures of this magical flora for us.
