The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2026, 212 VIP Black Cab by Carolina Herrera is an intriguing blend of sweet and spicy notes that capture the essence of a luxurious evening. The fragrance opens with a vibrant pineapple note, adding a fresh fruity twist, while caramel brings warmth and depth to the composition. Patchouli grounds the scent with its earthy richness, complemented by the aromatic complexity of wormwood. This distinctive combination makes 212 VIP Black Cab a standout in Carolina Herrera's lineup.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for maximum impact. The caramel notes will linger close to your skin, while the patchouli base provides a lasting warmth throughout the evening. It's best suited for night-time wear due to its rich, warm profile.
