The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2012, 212 Glam by Carolina Herrera is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that embodies the brand's signature sophistication. It opens with sweet and caramel notes, creating a warm and inviting aroma that immediately draws you in. The heart of iris and rose adds a touch of floral complexity, while the woody base provides a grounding warmth. This composition feels like a luxurious indulgence, blending sweetness with subtle florals and earthy tones to create an elegant, alluring scent.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a balanced blend of sweet top notes and woody base. The caramel and cotton candy accents are most noticeable in the first hour but give way to a more complex, lasting iris and woodsy warmth.
