212 VIP Black Eau De Parfum Spray by Carolina Herrera - 200 ml

Straight into scents: Aromtic , powdery with semi sweet semi bitter lavender notes. With hints of anise stars.. Projection is 6.4, and sadly doesn’t last a lot.. But I personally love the rich smell of it, and I use it for more of a spring time Date night. Definitely deserved to get refresh of spray during the night because it’s addicting

This is nice - nothing exceptional. It actually reminds me slightly of Yves Saint Laurent Y EDP. It's sweeter, and less versatile than Y EDP but there's a definite ambroxan vibe with this one. It smells very mass appealing, I couldn't see anyone being offended by it once you get past this first initial spray. It's not bad. Is it a must own? I wouldn't say so, but it's worth checking out at the very least.

A pleasant flanker which adds nicely to the 212 VIP line. There is noticeable absinthe, anise, vanilla and lavender which combines to provide a sweet fragrance with subtle freshness. Performance wise, the fragrance projects well but settles after about an hour. Longevity for me is also moderate at about 4 hours or so. Overall, a nice fragrance and recommended to anyone who enjoys this line of fragrances.

This is an aromatic soft spicy scent. The combination of its elements give me different impressions every time I wear it. Sometimes I get a bit of freshness similar to mint. Other times, specially by night, I feel it sweet, but not necessarily vanilla, as it is declared as one of the notes above. Other times I feel it a little harsh or boozy, specially at the beginning. I think it has a nice longevity and it sticks into your skin for a long time. While the fragrance is drying down on your skin, definitely it gets better.

212VIP Black CH is in top five in my collection, this one attracts positive reaction and compliments. Longevity: 6-8 hours(around 8 sprays) Sillage: moderate some 3-4 good hours that's when you will get the compliments. Scent: 5/5 definitely something that not to many people know about it, but not unique. Looking forward to buy a new bottle soon.

This one is a beast! The opening notes itself are just so good. Probably the only fragrance I’ve bought as an impulse purchase. It’s the right amount of musk blended perfectly with vanilla. The absinthe and fennel cut that sweetness brilliantly. Lasts long and the silage is good.

Nice masculine fragrance

Easy purchase from start to finish and super fast delivery. The fragrance is very nice with a powerful masculine scent. My son does not need to use much and the fragrance lasts all day. We grabbed a bargain in the Black Friday deals, but my son would happily buy this again at the pre sale price too.

Performance

Not highly expensive like the competitor BrandsThe fragrance lasts easily 4-6 hours but sometimes it's above that also depending on the weather and clothes.If you are going for big brands then you can go for this one. But at this price, if you want something amazing then I recommend that go for a UAE or KSA brand
