212 Vip Tester

Once, I smelled a girl in a restaurant... A prominent liquour, a pleasant acidity and sweet in the most seductive way. And it smelled very pricey which didn’t relate to her style. I asked her. Hearing the name (Herrera perfumes isn’t what I associate with taste, plus “VIP”...) I doubted to ever buy it. But here I am after several hesitations in the store (where I couldn’t test the scent btw) I decided to go for it. It was smelling so nice on this lady... so I ignored the fact that it has an embarrasing name and took it home. That was 2 hours ago and I am smelling it on my skin right now: cheapy, average, musky floral and passionfruit. Almost like Miami Glow by jlo. I would never wear it to a club where I am on the guest list. My man said something like you get what you give and yeah... I spent 20€ on it so I shouldn‘t even complain. I just don’t understand the magic of the girl in the restaurant and her scent.

I've been using this fragrance since four years ago, and for my is a hassle-free but charming perfume. It is a perfume with a very stable intensity, (does not have a nothing complex structure, clear is) sweet vanilla in large proportion, with a touch of praline and a hint of floral tone. Marinated in that "borrachín" touch not very dry. It is very wearable and it runs great, but enough my perception of it changes depending on the time of year in which the use. Find it me more airy and cheerful in the summer and much creamier in winter. Where I find it infallible regardless of the season, is at night. She unleashes her sensuality when the sun goes down, becoming SUPER attractive. It has unfortunately due to be quite re-formulada, put that you marketed is today nothing has to do with the original fragrance. I dosificaré what I have :)

I got this some years ago when I had just started getting into perfume. I fell in love with the bottle and the boozy vanilla but I never wore it a lot. Today i rediscovered it from the back of my perfume wardrobe and sprayed it on a warm, sunny day. The vanilla was definitely there, but what I got was GARDENIA and so much of it! It was refreshingly beautiful and while the sillage was good enough, it never turned overwhelming even in warm weather. Gentle, sweet Gardenia with fluffy, warm, powdery vanilla and a hint of passionfruit. This perfume deserves a rebranding since that whole VIP thing is deceptive and misleading.

When I first spray this... it is not good. But moments later it starts to dry down into such a pleasant vanilla rum scent that just gets more delicious as the day goes on. You still get whiffs of it from your clothing hours and hours later on. I was looking for something similar to Riri and this was suggested to me. This is not as fruity and is a little more mature. Sometimes when I get a whiff of it, it is a little more powdery than I'd like, just a tiny bit too mature smelling for my tastes at times. But all in all I really like this perfume and will continue to wear it when I'm wanting to feel delicious and sensual.

It's a light and delicate scent of vanilla and tonka beans. I think it's a soft, feminine and beautiful fragrance. I hoped to smell more rum, but for me it's at the background. You can't say "Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum." This is a floral-vanilla scent, pleasant to wear. It is suitable for both winter and summer. Longevity and sillage is good, but I have to renew it during the day. At the beginning I can smell light alcoholic notes, smoothly and very gently transforming into beautiful flowers and vanilla. It's a beautiful scent for day and night. The bottle 50 ml is gorgeous as well!
