The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2008, 212 Men Splash by Carolina Herrera is a fragrance that marries the freshness of citrus and green notes with the warmth of powdery and woody accords. This composition opens with bright citruses and aromatic spices, creating an invigorating top note that feels like a refreshing breeze on a crisp morning. As it settles, the scent reveals its depth with a warm spicy heart and a powdery woody base, providing a sense of comfort and sophistication.
Given its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage, one or two sprays are sufficient. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to the skin, as it develops slowly over time, making it perfect for both daytime and evening wear.
