Carolina Herrera Very Good Girl Glam

 

Very Good Girl Glam is the dazzling new scent from Carolina Herrera.

Created as an ode to the power of femininity it is a fearless, bold exquisite fragrance that encourages you to unleash your inner glam.

 

 

Sitting within the floral/woody fragrance family, it is a sparkling, contemporary scent deeply rooted in elegant femininity which is easily as resplendent as its breathtaking vessel.

The iconic Good Girl stiletto has retained all of its breath-taking sophistication and refinement but has been transformed with a cherry-red hue drenched in a sparkling cascade of glitter.

 

 

A physical reflection of the precious juice captured within, it captures and reflects the light like never before, ensuring she remains the center of attention at all times.

Wonderfully tactile to hold, the cherry glitter feels like sugar crystals, a fizzy contrast to the cool, sleek ridges of the gold stiletto point while the heel offers a warmer, softer, shinier finish.

 

 

In many ways, the stiletto mirrors the glamourous and sparkling notes of the Very Good Girl Glam EDP.

It bursts into life with notes of ripe, juicy black cherry and aromatic, soft and ever-so-slightly sweet bitter almond before a bouquet of timeless rose and elegant lily create a distinctly classic element.

 

 

The velvety nature of the florals blended with the sweet softness of cherry and almond create a sumptuous and addictive experience before base notes of warm, creamy vanilla bourbon and woody vetiver wrap their comforting, sensual arms around each component resulting in a multi-layered fragrance with both depth and intensity.

 

 

Soft and sweet, warm and ravishing, dazzling yet grounded it is quite frankly a stunning fragrance and in my opinion, the perfect addition to the ever-expanding Good Girl family.

Carolina Herrera Good Girl Légère

Good Girl Légère is the fresh, bold and sprightly new scent from Carolina Herrera.

As a HUGE fan of the original (you can read my review of this HERE) I wasn’t sure what to expect from Légère but I was actually very impressed.

Perfect for spring and lighter, sunny days Légère is housed in the same iconic and stunning vessel as its predecessor but to reflect the lighter nectar within, the toe is transparent while the rest is midnight blue as opposed to the pure blackness of Good Girl as well as to reflect the transition from day to night and from good to bad!

The seductive and radiant scent is described as a floral oriental and its notes are constructed around the DNA of Good Girl.

Lighter and softer than the original scent, GOOD GIRL Légère opens with top notes of zesty and fresh Tangerine before heart notes of Ylang Ylang and familiar Jasmine Sambac offer a soft and appealing bouquet.

Creamy and seductive Tonka Bean and woody sandalwood return and are combined with the velvety and sweet aroma of Dulce de Leche to leave a fragrance that is sophisticated, addictive and utterly exquisite.

The Tangerine note definitely helps to lift the scent making it lighter and in a way, more playful while the addition of Dulce de Leche offers a sensual and sweet element.

Carolina Herrera’s Good Girl Légère is just an absolutely beautiful scent that easily equals its original in appeal, quality and sensuality and is available now from The Perfume Shop and costs £74 for 50ml.

Carolina Herrera Good Girl

Good Girl is the sensual and evocative new scent from Carolina Herrera.

This innovative fragrance is as powerful as it is sensual and features an audacious blend of dark and light elements in celebration of the woman who loves her good side and celebrates her bad.

Now, before I can begin to describe the intoxicating and beautiful scent itself, we HAVE to address the bottle.

“Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world” was very much the inspiration for Good Girl.

The result is the eye catching, unique and undeniably stunning bottle which you see before you.

A fragrance, captured within the most gorgeous stiletto!

The inspired combination of both beauty and couture has resulted in the most exquisite and original looking perfume vessel that I think I’ve ever seen.

Its chic, black form is contrasted by a gold, ridged stiletto heel, with the Carolina Herrera logo printed on the front of the shoe in gold too. 

It really is the most beautiful bottle to gaze at and to hold and is surprisingly heavy to hold. 

The scent is released by pressing the back of the heel and if by that point you had already fallen in love with Good Girl, prepare to fall harder still when you’ve experienced it in all its glory!

Good Girl is a fragrance that represents beautiful contradictions and the duality of modern women and has characterised its notes into good and bad ones!

Floral waves of white Sambac Jasmine and tuberose are considered ‘Good’ where as deeper, more mysterious notes of roasted tonka and cacao are considered ‘ Bad’ notes.

The scent opens with top notes of sweet and soft almond before heart notes of warm sandalwood, tuberose and alluring jasmine and iris offer a rich, provocative and feminine experience.

Base notes of fragrant cacao, intoxicating tonka bean, creamy sweet vanilla and rich, deep coffee both manage to contradict and compliment the lighter elements to leave a sumptuous and sensual fragrance that is designed to enchant.

I adore this fragrance. I LOVE the way in which it manages to somehow feel both light and feminine as well as deep and seductive. 

The rich, warm, sweet and gourmand elements cling to my skin and hours later I can still enjoy their delicious notes while the immediate experience leaves me feeling empowered and beautiful.

 If you enjoy rich, warm and powerful fragrances then you are going to adore Good Girl. 

For someone like me who loves feeling wrapped in a metaphorical blanket of musky warm sensuality it is simple perfect.

If you tend to favour lighter scents then Good Girl would make a great night-time fragrance and may even help to inspire your evening’s choice of footwear thanks to its elegant and striking bottle!

Carolina Herrera’s Good Girl is available now from The Perfume Shop and costs £72.50 for 50ml.
