About this deal

I don't know if he got a bad bottle or if they changed the formulation of this but it definetly didn't smell like the OG 212 Sexy that i used to rock back in the day. The Carolina Herrera universe represents the perfect combination between an aristocratic luxury and the gift of elegance. Longevity is decent, at around 6-10 hours with quite a bit of variation in my experience and projection can also vary with generally nothing more than moderate projection on my skin. The fragrance has some important opening to dry-down changes, first, the opening is brief, unimpressive and mostly citrus and green, these notes are short-lived, in just a moment the vanilla comes up with a sweet aromatic note, then the Guaiac Wood develops adding a projecting and leathery note, finally the sandalwood and amber add a sweet resinous touch. I can say that 212 Men don't have much similarities to Stronger With You, Aramni Code (unless that is the whole spicy scent thing) or has a BO feel.

The sweetness and likely musky flower mid-dry down works better for me than the opening, which is bright and clubbing inspiring. From this point on 212 Sexy turns into a skin scent and though quite pleasing and appealing and with a spicier, subtler sexiness than Le Male can manage, the spices seem out of balance slightly and not completely in accord with the vanilla and amber, which has created a harshness on some skin. I'm loving it, Start with lemons and spices, and then it starts to get warm, as it warm up the lemons fade and you get vanilla and musk. com perfumes magazine - All Rights Reserved - do not copy anything without prior written permission. It does remind me of Le Male in the opening because of the sweet vanilla notes but 212 Sexy is mixed better and more masculine in my opinion because of the smoother woody notes I get from it.SEXY brings a more seductive scent profile to the vibrant 212 collection, opening with the magnetic energy of mandarin and bergamot. Selected lines only, determined by size, weight or whether delivered direct from one of our suppliers. Just found out this morning (3/8/2023) via a Carolina Herrera online chat representative that this fragrance -- along with "212 Sexy" for women -- has been discontinued.

Base notes of amber and woods reflect a classic masculine sensibility, while a touch of vanilla bring the fragrance an alluring finish. FRAGRANCE SAMPLES UK IS COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT AND IS IN NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH, ENDORSED BY, OR WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH CAROLINA HERRERA. SUMMARY: A moderate projection, sweet (vanilla), resinous (amber, sandalwood), leathery (guaiac wood), and spicy (pepper, cardamom) fragrance with soft floral notes. After the dust clears up this is where my skin goes bi-polar and the powder and vanilla begin to compete for attention. The base of this is typical, and features sandalwood, vanilla burbon, a touch of smoky guiac wood and musk.The lack of longevity and projection just don't justify its purchase if you already have one of the handful of its already well explored genre. Carolina Herrera’s 212 Sexy for Men is a striking, classy, mysterious, but above all sexy aftershave. Cardamom is simply (like in most fragrances it is included in) mimicking the smell of a naturally aromatic spicy body odor. I do see the Le Male comparisons, but 212 Sexy is slightly more synthetic and a little softer- but definitely similar. I get the reference and similarity to some of the listed fragrances, but by no means it would be redundant to own them along with 212 Sexy Men.
