The heat made me pick Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle Carnal Flowertoday, a sexy fragrance built on the greener, fresher side of the lush tuberose blossoms. A favorite with American women, it won my heart when I first tested it many summers ago one fateful hot afternoon; it spoke of the eternal west and riding into the sunset cutting my losses.
i love "carnal flower" on very hot days...there is something about the green-ness of it that seems welcome then. white linen dress, emerald necklace, and carnal flower...
Carnal Flower--A fantastic summer fragrance--a beautiful, rich, white flower with touches of green. A wonderful sister fragrance is EL tuberose gardenia, also shimmering in the heat of summer!
It was cool here in Sydney so I wore original Salvador Dali. It was a perfect scent for the evening and two separate people asked what it was. That so rarely happens that I got a little shiver of excitement. Portia xx
We get only a handful of 90 degree days here, so I'm considering two from my hot weather collection: Ylang Ylang (rhymes with Bang Bang) by Lorenzo Villoresi, or EL Azuree Soleil.

Exciting to receive two comments on the scent! I've never tried Dali.
