212 Heroes

212 Heroes, inspired by Carolina Herrera 212 Heroes (2021)

Pear brings a crisp, watery fruitiness at the start, cut with the zing of fresh ginger so it never becomes syrupy. Within minutes sage and geranium take over, giving a green, slightly minty herbal middle. The brand describes the leather in the base as soft, and musk keeps the finish tidy.

About the original

Carolina Herrera launched 212 Heroes in 2021 as part of the 212 family, with a bottle shaped after a skateboard. The brand classifies it as aromatic fruity woody and markets the formula as vegan. No perfumer is named on the official page. A women's version, 212 Heroes for Her, is a separate eau de parfum; this page refers to the men's eau de toilette.

Our version

Ours is an independent eau de parfum made to evoke the same character. It is not Carolina Herrera stock, not an official relaunch and not the original formula.

Who it suits

Casual days and laid-back weekends are the setting Carolina Herrera has in mind, and the composition fits that brief. The pear makes it slightly sweet and fruity, which suits a relaxed style but may feel too youthful for someone who wants a deeper, woodier scent.

Notes of the original fragrance, as published by the brand.

Top notes: Ginger, Pear

Heart notes: Sage, Geranium

Base notes: Leather, Musk

Ginger and pear arrive together, a peppery root against ripe, cool fruit.

Sage and geranium form an aromatic heart, the geranium adding a rosy, leafy note that ties the fruit to the herbs.

Leather and musk close it out with a smooth, unfussy finish.

Is this the men's or the women's 212 Heroes?

The men's, the 2021 eau de toilette with ginger, pear and leather. 212 Heroes for Her is a different eau de parfum.
