Carolina Herrera Emerald Musk ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 19 July 2019 11 Comments

Carolina Herrera has launched Emerald Musk, a new addition to the Herrera Confidential collection.

Emeralds have always been worn in my family. From my great-grandmother to my grandmother to my mother — we've all worn them. I love their fragility," said Carolina Herrera de Baez. Named after the luxurious gem, this fragrance from Herrera Confidential is exclusive to Harrods. A true collector's item, Emerald Musk is inspired by the richness of Middle Eastern perfumery, with highly concentrated oils that exude notes of pink pepper, rose, leather, musk and amber for a decadent aroma.

Additional notes include orris and vanilla.

Carolina Herrera Emerald Musk is available now at Harrods in the UK, £235 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

    How very Carolina Herrara, who was a rich socialite who wore couture clothes before she became a preeminent designer of them, to name a perfume after her family’s heirlooms. (Or rather how very Carolina Herrera of her licensee’s brand consultant).
    While I can not claim an ancestral memory of a family horde, I have held some subgem quality emeralds and even a few precious (tiny) earrings up close. Being carbon stones, they had no musky qualities (and no real smell) at all.

      And looks like this will be a series, since they just did the Ruby one.

      The musk comes from the owners of said gems rolling them around on their bodies…

    Emerald Musk – inspired by Middle Eastern perfumery? Really? Such a cool name, but the brief is boring :(
