Bergamot and grapefruit arrive together, the grapefruit sharper and slightly bitter, the bergamot rounder and more polished, and between them they give about ten minutes of clean citrus. Bulgarian rose follows, and it is the rich, deep, almost wine like version of the material rather than the dewy one, with sambac jasmine beside it adding a heady, waxy sweetness that pushes the middle further towards opulence. Then the base turns the whole thing on its head. Praline brings a toasted, sugary warmth, the smell of nuts caramelising rather than of a finished dessert, and patchouli runs under it dark and earthy. Sweet and dusty at the same time is a difficult trick, and this is where the fragrance pulls it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an eau de toilette it sits lighter on skin than a parfum strength version of the same idea would, with a brighter start and a gentler trail behind it. Four to six hours is realistic, and it reapplies easily without ever becoming overwhelming. It reads as a women's fragrance and it fits autumn and winter days, office hours included, far better than high summer. Six materials, clearly arranged, with no attempt at complication for its own sake. Olivier Cresp and Rosendo Mateu composed it, and the scent itself dates from 2007, which makes it one of the longer established women's fragrances in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fashion house first and a perfume name second, Carolina Herrera has worked from New York since the designer's debut collection of 1981, with scent licensed out from 1988.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carolina Herrera","offers":[{"title":"50ml","offer_id":53292030361927,"sku":"BTS14729","price":79.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100ml","offer_id":54425425969479,"sku":"BTS14728","price":142.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/bts14729.webp?v=1770427169","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/carolina-herrera-ch-eau-de-toilette-bts14729","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
