The 212 Cologne was originally introduced in the year 1999 as a cologne for men by Carolina Herrera. The 212 Cologne by Carolina Herrera is a refreshing and floral fragrance that is masculine in nature without being too overly so. This fresh and floral fragrance possesses a unique blend of ginger, grapefruit, green leaves and mandarin orange with the perfect complimentary base note of aqua musk.

Notable Notes: The most notable notes in the 212 Cologne include Incense, Vetiver, Guaiac Wood, Musk, Sandalwood, Labdanum, Sage, Violet Flower, Gardenia, Green Pepper, Ginger, Bergamot, Grapefruit, Green Notes, Lavender, Spices and Petit Grain.

Recommended Use: The recommended use for the 212 Cologne is with office wear or daytime wear.

With notes of incense, vetiver, guaiac wood, sandalwood, musk, labdanum, sage, violet, gardenia, green pepper, ginger, bergamot, grapefruit, green notes, spices, lavender and petit grain, this is a deep fragrance with plenty of evolutionary qualities to it. The first time I experienced this fragrance, it was on my son. He came into the house and immediately I detected a mix of notes that was completely unique to anything I had smelled before. I've never really been one to wear a lot of cologne, but when I met the 212 Cologne for the first time, I knew I had to have a bottle for myself.

I immediately went out to buy a bottle of the 212 Cologne for myself. I found that it was a bit pricey, but well worth the investment considering how little it takes to get a really nice impression of the notes. If you're looking for a cologne that is going to garner compliments, turn heads and get the job done, the 212 Cologne is a must-have addition to your arsenal of colognes and scents.

Many men's colognes are too musky, too woodsy and simply too overwhelming or overbearing. As a result, it always feels like I've applied too much and I feel like I spend the first half of my evening just waiting for the top notes to dissipate. When it comes to the 212 Cologne, however, as soon as I apply it, I feel like it's perfect, and instead of looking forward to the dry down period, I end up really savoring the top notes.

The 212 Cologne is a fresh and slightly floral cologne with the perfect mix of floral notes, musky and woodsy notes and fresh notes. Some of the notes are truly unique, and I am so glad to have them in this cologne. The spices and the florals work well with one another, and this is cologne that is neither too overbearing nor too overwhelming, making it perfect for any age. Whether you're in the 18 to 25 bracket and looking for something young and fresh, or a little older and simply looking to feel young again, the 212 Cologne by Carolina Herrera is an outstanding way to go.
