Carmina is a well-received feminine rose fragrance with a beautiful bottle that divides the community primarily on value. While many love its creamy, jammy rose character and report receiving compliments, concerns about weak longevity, high price, and departure from Creed's signature style temper enthusiasm, leading many to seek more affordable alternatives.
