Perfumes: Carolina Herrera and Nina Ricci

Perfumes are always personal thing. There are lots of perfumes out there so I have tried two out for you, one for evening and one for daytime.

Carolina Herrera 212 VIP is a strong oriental scent for the evening. The base notes are vanilla, musk and sandalwood. The inspiration is the New York youth, full of style and creativity. I found the scent stayed around for a long time and kept on wanting to smell the scent. I love the packaging of the bottle. The cap is magnetic so it just sticks to the bottle. No twisting here.

A scent for the daytime is Nina L'Elixir. It is a fruity scent with base notes of white cedar, cotton musk and warm amber. It's a very sweet fragrance. However it does not seem to last very long.

Of the two, I prefer Carolina Herrera 212 VIP. What fragrance do you wear?
