Carolina Herrera 212 Femme Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray

Carolina Herrera 212 Femme Eau de Toilette is the original women's 212 — a clean, fresh-floral classic launched in 1997 alongside the matching men's version, named after the Manhattan area code that defined cosmopolitan New York at the turn of the millennium. Composed by Alberto Morillas, it opens with bergamot, mandarin and cactus flower, blooms into a soft white-floral heart of gardenia, jasmine, peony and lily-of-the-valley, and settles onto a clean musk-and-sandalwood base. Houses in the recognisable steel-finish aluminium bottle. About Carolina Herrera Founded in New York in 1981 by Venezuelan-American couturier Carolina Herrera, the house is known for tailored, polished elegance — the white shirt, the red carpet gown. Its fragrance line, now part of Puig, has produced some of the most successful designer fragrances of the past three decades, with the 212 line — masculine and feminine — among its biggest exports. Fragrance notes Top: Bergamot, Mandarin orange, Orange blossom, Cactus flower Heart: Gardenia, Jasmine, Peony, Lily-of-the-valley, White camellia, Freesia, Rose, Lily Base: Sandalwood, Musk Olfactory family: Floral Musk | Launched: 1997 | Perfumer: Alberto Morillas Who it's for 212 Femme suits women who like clean, urban florals over sweet or heavy compositions. It is a versatile year-round wear — fresh enough for warm days, polished enough for the office, and discreet enough to layer easily under a tailored jacket. If you favour scents like Calvin Klein Eternity or Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey in their lighter facets, 212 sits comfortably in the same family. How to use Hold the steel-finish bottle around 15 cm from the skin. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, behind the ears. Two sprays balance freshness and presence; eau de toilette concentration sits close to the skin. Reapply lightly after a few hours if you'd like the citrus opening to stay forward.
