Carolina Herrera Good Girl Légère EDP

Description

Good Girl Légère is the brighter, softer Good Girl: white flowers and citrus over a creamy dulce de leche base. Released by Carolina Herrera in 2018 and composed by Louise Turner, it takes its name from the French for "light". Ylang-ylang, mandarin, bergamot and lemon open it, a heart of tuberose, jasmine, orange blossom and Bulgarian rose gives it a luminous floral center, and the base layers dulce de leche, praline and tonka with sandalwood, cashmere wood, amber and musk. It is an amber floral that keeps the Good Girl sweetness but wears lighter than the original, in the Good Girl stiletto-shoe bottle.

Scent Character

Translation: floral first, with creamy woods close behind; the sweetness is the dulce de leche and praline, and the citrus top keeps it airy. The small amber share is the amber and patchouli in the base.
