The Story

Launched in 2003, 212 White by Carolina Herrera is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that captures the refreshing atmosphere of winter days. The composition opens with mandarin orange, which adds a bright and citrusy freshness to the top notes. As it evolves, jasmine, peony, and rose create a floral heart that is both soft and elegant. The base notes of musk, benzoin, and sandalwood provide warmth and depth, grounding the fragrance in a powdery and woody embrace.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a moderate sillage that lasts through the day. The fragrance blooms best close to skin, so avoid heavy layering to keep it from feeling overpowering.
