Carlisle

Carlisle, a Rich Spicy Floral Woody

Carlisle is a warm, opulent creation from Parfums de Marly. Our version keeps that character, opening with green apple, nutmeg, and cinnamon before a rose, jasmine, and orange blossom heart settles over tonka bean, vanilla, amber, and sandalwood.

The Story Behind the Scent

Parfums de Marly built Carlisle as a rich, refined scent with real presence, blending spice, fruit, and flowers into something luxurious. The idea was opulence with elegance.

That warm richness is its appeal. The apple and spice give it energy, the flowers make it rich, and the tonka and amber make it warm. Our interpretation follows that same luxurious path.
