The Story

Launched in 2002, Chic by Carolina Herrera is a floral masterpiece crafted by Alberto Morillas and Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. The fragrance opens with a bright mandarin blossom that gives way to the lush white florals of tuberose and Bulgarian rose. This heart of red freesia and lily-of-the-valley adds a delicate, powdery touch before settling into a warm base of sandalwood and vanilla. Chic is a composition that balances freshness and warmth, creating an elegant presence that feels both intimate and sophisticated.

Application Tips

Chic has moderate longevity and sillage, so aim for two sprays on pulse points to ensure its floral warmth lasts through the day. It pairs well with light layering under a jacket or during cooler evenings when you want a scent that feels both fresh and intimate.
