The Story

Launched in 2015, CH Africa by Carolina Herrera is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp. This composition begins with the vibrant freshness of orange and violet, which contrasts beautifully against the warm and smoky notes of rooibos tea and incense. As it develops, cinnamon and iris add a layer of complexity, while vanilla rounds out the scent with its comforting sweetness. The result is a fragrance that embodies the rich blend of African influences, blending warmth and spiciness with floral elegance.

Application Tips

Apply CH Africa to pulse points for the best longevity. The smoky and spicy notes project well, so one or two sprays are sufficient. This fragrance pairs particularly well with cooler evenings when its warmth can be fully appreciated.
