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.

The house
More from Carolina Herrera
Carolina Herrera is a house founded in the United States in 1980, and its first perfume followed in 1988. The scents here are playful and a little daring, built on tonka bean, vanilla and cacao, with almond, black cherry and tuberose for contrast. Good Girl is the obvious first pick, a sweet white floral with a spicy heat. Good Girl Blush is lighter, floral and vanilla with a citrus lift. On the men's side, Bad Boy Extreme mixes warm spice, amber and cacao. Very Good Girl Elixir is the dessert of the family: cherry, almond and vanilla. The credits include perfumers Louise Turner and Quentin Bisch.
