{"product_id":"carolina-herrera-ch-men-gift-set-eng222672","title":"CH Men Gift Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eCashmeran is the material that makes the Carolina Herrera CH Men Gift Set last, and it is the least obvious thing in the box. The fragrance starts brightly enough. Grapefruit gives a sharp citrus opening and violet leaf sits with it, green and crushed and slightly bitter, nothing like a flower. Saffron follows and changes the temperature, dry and leathery with a faint metallic warmth, while cyclamen keeps the middle cool and watery against it. The base is leather and cashmeran: the leather polished and soft rather than raw, the cashmeran smooth, warm and almost powdery, the kind of material that smells of very little alone and holds everything else in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside are the 100ml Eau de Toilette, a 100ml aftershave balm and a 10ml spray. Six materials, and the progression from sharp to spiced to smooth is easy to follow without being obvious about it. It is a restrained men's fragrance, and that is unusual in a market where most things shout. It suits offices, weddings, dinners and cold weather, and it works on a man of any age without reading as either young or old.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo concentration is named on the set, so take the wear as the scent gives it: a good six hours, moderate presence, and a trail that keeps within arm's length rather than filling a car. Bought as a boxed set it makes a straightforward present for a father, a father in law or anybody whose taste runs to the conventional in the best sense of that word. There is nothing to arrange, nothing to wrap and nothing to explain afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarolina Herrera has been designing in New York since 1981, when she showed her first collection, and the perfume side of the house has been in Spanish hands, with Puig, on licence since 1988.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carolina Herrera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55581194453319,"sku":"ENG222672","price":122.1,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/eng222672.webp?v=1794496481","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/carolina-herrera-ch-men-gift-set-eng222672","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
