About This Perfume
Think green lavender soap, herbaceous leather breeze: that is Carolina Herrera 212 VIP Black NY Rodeo. It opens with provençal lavender and rosemary, moves into absinth and Saffiano™ and settles on patchouli and vetiver. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This fragrance is best in spring, fall and winter and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2025.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and sweet for casual days.

How the picks are built
Good Girl (2016) smells like toasty coffee and almond sweetness, soft musky florals, starting with almond and bergamot before roasted tonka bean, amber and cocoa take over. Good Girl Blush (2023) reads as creamy sweet vanilla, bitter almond, floral powder, opening on bitter almond and bergamot and drying down to tonka bean and vanilla. Very Good Girl (Eau de Parfum, 2021) is described as sweet lychee berries over creamy vanilla rose; the opening brings lychee and currant, and the base settles on bourbon vanilla and vetiver.
