The story behind the bottle.
Launched by Carolina Herrera in 2017, Virgin Mint is an aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of freshness and elegance. The composition opens with bright bergamot and mandarin orange, lending a crisp citrus vibrancy to the top notes. This brightness segues into a heart of mint and geranium, creating a refreshing yet balanced middle layer. Vetiver and white musk form the base, grounding the fragrance in an earthy, powdery warmth that resonates with sophistication.
Virgin Mint is best applied as two sprays to pulse points. The citrus top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so layering it over a light moisturizer can help extend their freshness. This fragrance reads better close to the skin rather than diffusing widely, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want a fresh and subtle scent.
