The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020, 212 VIP Rose Red by Carolina Herrera is a Floral Fruity fragrance created by perfumer Emilie Coppermann. This composition opens with the bright contrast of liquor and tomato, leading into raspberry and tiramisu for a sweet and fresh heart. The base notes of Bulgarian rose, patchouli, musk, and woody notes provide warmth and depth. It’s a scent that balances unexpected freshness with rich comfort.

How to wear it

This fragrance benefits from a heavy first pass to capture its bright opening notes. The base develops slowly over time, so it’s best applied at least an hour before heading out for optimal impact.
