Carolina Herrera’s 212 collection has paid tribute to New York since 1997. With 212 VIP, it turned to the city’s most exclusive parties. In 2017, the house added a darker, more nocturnal men’s version: 212 VIP Black, designed for the man who never leaves the party.
Perfumers Carlos Benaim and Anne Flipo built this aromatic fougère around an unexpected ingredient: absinthe, the “green fairy” of Belle Époque nights. In the opening it is joined by anise and fennel, which give it a slightly licorice-like facet. The aromatic heart is carried by lavender, before a sensual base of musk and a black vanilla pod accord.
The bottle takes the silhouette of the 212 VIP collection, this time in a deep black that evokes the New York night. A contrast of aromatic freshness and vanilla softness, 212 VIP Black has since been followed by a more intense Elixir version.
