About this deal

Later on in the dry-down I get a creamy warm vanilla, gardenia, woods and a trace of soapy musk, but with the mangoes still lingering around prominently (and getting on my nerves a little). for me it's a musky white honeyed floral with some vanilla and a note that i cant really place,it could be the passion fruit.

Passionfruit only appears in the top notes to add extra zest, but even that doesn't do a very good job at lifting the fragrance up. I was expecting a plush, fruity vanilla scent that's made especially for glamorous sex-bombs and flirty girls in nightclubs or at parties, but this was just super bland and uninspiring on me. Amazingly, the dupe contains nearly ALL the notes of the original but this is even longer lasting and more complex than its cheaper little sister.Its sweet, rich and dark, not for all palates, not for the ones that like light florals or fresh fruits. At first, it hit me strongly and I thought I won't like it buuut I was so wrong :) One of my favorite fragnance after so many years. Very good for daytime and nightime use, pretty inoffensive, wish that sillage would be stronger but anyway, it definitely gets thumbs up from me! For some reason, I never get the coveted rum note but that's fine with me since the pink pepper, spices and vanilla more than make up for it.

And not only that, but even after putting a jumper on, I moved my arm around and kept getting whifs of the scent! This perfume wants to convey the incredible sensations experienced by young people in New york, in its endless night, glamorous, exclusive and entertainment outlets. As the rum and passionfruit fade a bit, the vanilla and tonka develop and they all stay softly blended from then on. This perfume was recommended to me as a girly but really strong scent, suitable for clubbing, partying and going out.I do love it, but being a full time mum of a toddler might not fit my everyday life which is a real shame.

Our unparalleled selection of premium products include ranges from cosmetics to confectionery, fragrances to fashion accessories, spirits to souvenirs, skincare to sunglasses, fine foods to fine wines and champagne. This new fragrance continues the iconic 212 saga, this time bringing infinite glamor, tinged with pink, keeping the festive and exclusive atmosphere of its predecessor alive. Because of its scent notes, it is intended for night use in any season and for any special occasion.

It is flat and boring, but I will at least commend it for not being entirely generic (though it is rather familiar). Here I get strong rum and fruity combo in the opening and we are talking about seriously strong rum. Some elements of the fragrance are nice, but 1) I can barely smell it and 2) there is something slightly dirty and almost play-doh to my nose. I think it's too strong and too present for partying, but it's definitely suitable for 'special occasions'.embodies the lifestyle of the party prima donna, the centre of attention at all the best parties, a perfect scent to wear out at night with your best dancing shoes.

from Carolina Herrera gives a rich sumptuous scent for the young lady that loves nightlife, inspired by the creators obsession with New York, the city that never sleeps. A modern icon for youth, 212 VIP comes in a matte gold bottle with a soft metallic touch and feminine round curves. The top notes sing out with exotic sweet passion fruit that blend with an intoxicating rum and strong floral gardenia accord heart. I guess this is one of those fragrances that change on you depending on the weather, your sensibility that particular day etc.While I didn't dislike the others, I just feel that VIP has that extra "je ne sais quoi" that the others were missing. I've been using this fragrance since four years ago, and for my is a hassle-free but charming perfume. Have i mentioned that the perfume cap is magnetic and it closes itself almost like a golden spaceship.
