Very Good Girl Elixir by Carolina Herrera is a dark, nutty gourmand built around cherry. Black cherry and bitter almond open it with a sweet, slightly bitter snap. Rose and tuberose soften the middle into something properly floral. Vanilla and cocoa close it out, warm and a little edible. Released in 2024, it is a scent for women who like their florals with a sweet tooth. Voters keep it for autumn and winter, mostly at night and in the evening, and it holds up well for work too. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and the sillage vote lands clearly on moderate as well, so it stays personal rather than loud. Live with a 3ml decant for a few dark evenings and see how the sweetness sits with you.
