The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2024, 212 VIP Rose Elixir by Carolina Herrera is an enchanting blend of fruity and floral accords that evoke a sense of modern elegance. The fragrance opens with the vibrant burst of litchi, cassis, and mandarin orange before diving into the heart of rose, peach blossom, and freesia. These notes create a delicate yet captivating bouquet that is further grounded by musky and woody undertones of patchouli and vanilla. This composition encapsulates the brand's signature sophistication while offering a fresh twist.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced scent experience. The fruity top notes are bright and fleeting, so layering this fragrance will ensure that the warm musky and woody base notes shine through as they develop on your skin.
