The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019, 212 VIP Rose Extra by Carolina Herrera is a Floral Fruity fragrance that marries bright and warm notes into an inviting bouquet. Created by perfumers Alienor Massenet and Emilie Coppermann, this scent opens with litchi and cherry liqueur, bringing a juicy sweetness that transitions smoothly into the heart of mandarin orange and bitter almond. The base is anchored by Madagascar vanilla and tonka bean, offering a rich and nutty warmth that grounds the composition in comforting depth.
Apply this fragrance in two layers — one initial spritz to capture the top notes, followed by another after five minutes as the heart notes unfold. The mandarin and litchi are fleeting, so this layered approach ensures a fuller experience throughout the day.
