Carolina  Carolina Herrera for women Pictures

Carolina is a tender romance between the tradition and the future; this scent continues the tradition of elegance and femininity of Carolina Herrera’s classic aromas. Wood, amber and light musk create the soft sensuality. Flower petals symbolize femininity; fruit fills it with a fresh juice of energy, while bitter orange and pepper emphasize your individuality. Top notes: bitter orange, wild strawberry leaf and cardamom; middle notes: rose petals, pepper and berries; base notes: woody notes, vanilla, amber and light musk. The fragrance was created by Carlos Benaim and Clement Gavarry in 2003

Perfume de boa qualidade, mas muito enjoativo. Ao final do frasco, estava impaciente para que terminasse logo.

Light, sweet, easy to wear scent. I like it but there is a bit too much of the bitter orange for my liking.

Aqui em minha cidade não tenho acesso fácil para testar os perfumes que desejo comprar. Então, ultimamente tenho comprado perfumes apenas lendo as opiniões dos membros do Fragrantica, e tem dado certo. Às vezes as experiências de várias pessoas nos confundem um pouco, mas creio que, fazendo uma minuciosa análise das notas e das opiniões das pessoas, se chega a um bom resultado. Um dos exemplos é o Carolina...amei, fiquei muito satisfeita e orgulhosa por ter feito um estudo de sucesso.
Quem ainda não o tem, mas está querendo aventurar-se para tê-lo, vá em frente, você não vai se arrepender...Carolina é magnífico!!

I love Carolina! It's a fresh, sweet and feminine scent. You can smell a lot of strawberry and, somehow, a little bit of passion fruit too, but in a good way. It used to be my favourite one... It's a pity that was discontinued.

It has some slight similarities to Coco Mademoiselle, but really, this is not a nice perfume to my nose. It just lacks something. I like the idea, but the notes just don't manage to be pulled together enough for me to be impressed. I think body chemistry perhaps plays a big part. I would recommend trying something like Mon Parfum by M Micallef if you like the idea of this but it just doesn't cut it. I bought this based on good reviews and the comparison to Coco Mademoiselle, and I was disappointed. I tried a few times, and ended up selling it off. It's a watered down, synthetic, half bodied composition in comparison. I own 2 other Carolina Herrera perfumes and this is my least favourite.

Very sweet and feminine.A lot of vanilla and strawberry,but perfume isn't heavy at all.For my nose- not similar to Coco Mademoiselle or Flowerbomb but is similar to Escada Magnetism and 212 Sexy.But more classic,feminine,light.Have bought it untested with very good price and I'm more than happy ;-)
I was looking for a good perfume with a lot of strawberry and now have found.

I disliked it from the first minute, but didn't washed it right away just to see if it would become nicer after a while. Alas, it didn't.
Too sweet, notes doesn't blend nicely, just a chemical vanilla overload ( and that comes from a person who usually likes sweet and even slighty synthetic fragrances). I couldnt imagine wearing it in the summer, as this fragrance itself smells like sugary sweat.

What a sweet. feminine perfume this is.I love it. Makes me feel girlie, all soft and young and innocent when I wear it. Its just strong enough to let people know you are wearing perfume but not so strong that it overwhelms.Not all perfumes have to scream to get your attention. Some just whisper and their presence is known. Carolina is one of those perfumes. I think this one may be a keeper for me.

CAROLINA is rather sweet--I find it hard to identify any florals at all, and the musky woodiness is very subtle. Usually cardamom--one of the strongest spices around--is unmistakeable, but not here. To my nose, CAROLINA is an innocuous sort of sugar spray with a bit of vanilla and a vague fruitiness.

The scent is evanescent as it is inoffensive. A fleeting moment of sweetness to which few could object. A sugar cookie of a scent. Nice for the holidays.

I asked the sale assistant for a paper of this but I had to leave about 15s after it was sprayed, I left the blotter at the counter too, couldn't get past the opening to see what this really smells like.

A feminine and elegant fragrance. It opens with a musky rose and dries down to quiet and comforting powdery vanilla and amber notes. I think it is very wearable and kind of universal. Although I myself would choose something with a stronger presence, I find Carolina friendly and attractive.

I was eager to try Carolina, after I had read the comment that it smelt like Flowerbomb.

Wow, it really does! It resembles Flowerbomb a lot (or vice versa), especially first 10-15 min. Afterwards, the sweetness becomes lighter and there's a lot of powder, like in all Herrera fragrances.

There's also a tiny note in it, which bothers me, maybe cardamom.

Overall, I find Carolina very nice and attractive, but my love remains with Flowerbomb!

P.S. dry down is very gentle and tender!

Hmmm...Out of the bottle it smelled just like Miss Dior Cherie, but on my skin it started to be different.A happy, sunny, strawberryish sweetness! I see the strawberry leaves as a part of it, but also the berry flesh - pink, juicy and sugar-ey.A very "legally blond" fragrance, if you ask me! I just cannot picture it on a dark haired lady.It is sexy, but not openly - and the most sexual part of it is the base, where you finally feel the musk and amber.Makes me smile!

This is s nice light fragrance. The beginning notes are of strong of orange and amber but its not citrus-y as the rose and amber notes bring it down but the orange is distinctly there - which I dont really like. The drydown is better - rather sweet but scent does not have a strong presence at all. Its nice and mature feminine but lasts the oumph to make it a fave.

Floriental... Oriental-fresh.

Friendly, alluring, subtle, sensual, sweet.
Joins the watery freshness of fruits with intense oriental notes - mainly vanilla. Thanks to that this fragrance seems to be both modern and traditional.

The scent is universal, although may be read in different ways depending on a person that wears it.
It's made for self-confident, emotionally mature women who have already stabilised, who want to go with the times but don't want to get away from the ideal of the femininity.

This is closer to Flowerbomb than Coco Mademoiselle in my opinion. In fact, it is so close to Flowerbomb (although lighter) that I don't feel the need to own Flowerbomb. I think Carolina is much more wearable.

I just bought this for my boyfriends mom. I hope she loves it. It is very soft. Has a sweet layer on top (strawberry), but dries very soft and light. This would not be a favorite of mine b/c I like more stronger scents. This is perfect for those who don't like to smell like perfume and want something soft and pretty. I think she will love it. she like DK Cashemere Mist and wanted something soft like that, I would say this is even softer very subtle. Would be good anytime but prob best in summer. Perfect for the office.

This perfume at the beginning smell orange, rose and a sort of mixture of musk, amber and cardamom. Feminine and pleasant. The opening is intense... more subtle and rich after time, more soft when appear up the others components of the scent. This effect is characteristic about the Carolina Herrera's perfumes, in my opinion

This one seems to come on well, but fades into mediocrity too soon. It gives up on itself before it really blooms. It does not seem to have a strong presence, but is still a nice little scent.

Smells just like Coco mademoiselle, only softer. Carolina is fine, but Mademoiselle is much better.
