safe & trusted since 1999

I may have tried other nice fragrances but this is the only one that I keep buying again and again

The best I have tried in many years. Opens with citris and then spices persist for many hours. For day or night

I've been wearing this scent for years now & it always come through for ya boy, it gets you a lot of attention & is different from anything else you will wear...

Sporty and Sexy, very good combo to have in your collection. Very versatile, can be worn evenings and daytime. Overall, great fragrance to have.

this is the greatest cologne ever made. I have been wearing it for yrs. great woodsy smell!

ITS MY FAVORITE GREEN FRAGRANCE AND MY SECOND FAVORITE COLOGNE AFTER FIERCE

ANYONE THAT HATES THIS COLOGNE NEEDS TO SHUT UP YOU COULD DO WORSE

I don't know the gentleman's name who had in his review that this cologne was some how "woody". This is very incorrect, seeing as the fragrance has only one wood note (sandalwood), and you'd never know unless you researched it. This fragrance is very fresh, and modern. Ironically, it is also aquatic (the main reason why it is so fresh), yet it kicks you quite a few green notes (carried by the insence which is responsible for the "modern twist"). Also, the citrus leaves and the grapefruit blend very well. If you're looking for something fresh (both in the sense of new, and smelling wonderful) without conforming to the trend of Acqua Di Gio, or the surplus of its variants, I highly recommend this product. Two thumbs up.

212 is one of the best woody colognes available. I use my mini bottle pretty regularly. I may just purchase a full size once the mini is gone.

This stuff smells fantastic, it is truly a wonderful thing to wear, ladies love it, & everyone compliments it, it has a vibrant light smell that last all day, from playa to pimp, this is what you will need to get the job done, play on.

212 really works with my body and not aganist... and plus it has been dubed "chick magnet" of 2007

after trying around 50 fragrances i can assure every one that this is a great lasting scent and catches every ones attention. do buy 1 bottle.

You will get compliments all day on this scent, not to mention plenty of ladies smellin all over you and all that. Buy this!

for those of you who are yearning for one of the older scents in place of this, then this was definitely not going to be your type of scent. But, for the rest, it's a good scent with a good dry down. It does come off a little floral (it might be the aqua musk note), but, it's still masculine.

So let down by this stuff. I cannot even explain. It is average at best. It smells like pepper and lemon water. Just very sad on this one. Carolina for men - the original - has really grown on me, it is potent. This stuff is trendy alright, and very very average. Reminds me of Higher by Dior - smells average and does not last. Easily the most let down I have been on a scent in a long long time. If u have read my posts, u know i love 1980's scents - scents that have power when they come out of the bottle. This juice's drydown is not bad, but there is just no power behind it. Her first scent for men was so much better. I just wish that these new more "modern" scents had lasting power. I wish they jump out of the bottle like Santos, Joop, Third Man, Antaeus, Jacomo, Boss number 1 - and even some of the 90's scents - like Ungaro III. If u are going to buy a Herrera buy the original, and please - perfume makers around the world - get rid of the Acquas, and the Tommy Hilfiger scents, this new modern trend that all scents smell alike and have no power, no kick. The best "modern" scent is without question - L'narchiste by Caron, read my review for that. So glad PE has it now. Now that stuff has power. So frustrating to see a scent with potential, fall by the wayside because it simply has nothing behind it. I expected much more than this. However, it does get good reviews, so opinions are plenty. Just smells way to common for me, and just so normal.

I bought this yesterday and wow... It is a great fragrance. Very masculine an very attractive. The ladies love it. I was at the store today buying Lacoste pour Homme and as I set my card down the lady goes: Oh my, what's that smell? it is really great. I smirk and replied 212... Cop it fellas

well to me this is the original musky fragrance, and its lasting is excelent, thums up, its going to stay for a long time in perfume world

more than a great longevity this one share an impressive longevity/sillage on the skin! awesome fragance, but too popular ...

I REALLY LOVE YOUR BRAND AND I WANT TO KNOW IF IT LAST LONG AND IF ITS SMEEL IS CONCENTRATED B-COS I LIKE BEING NOTICED BY THE SMEEL OF MY COLONGE WHEN I PASS MY FRIENDS.ADVICE ME.IT'S THE BEST COS MY FRIEND THAT USED IT WAS ALWAYS HAVING HIS SHIRT SNIFFED

I REALLY LOVE YOUR BRAND AND I WANT TO KNOW IF IT LAST LONG AND IF ITS SMEEL IS CONCENTRATED B-COS I LIKE BEING NOTICED BY THE SMEEL OF MY COLONGE WHEN I PASS MY FRIENDS.ADVICE ME.

Crisp and refreshing. Like a conceited breeze. It actually cools me down dropping my temperature back to normal. Despite its finer qualities as it looks down condescending to its brother smells, it has one mayor flaw. It screams attention. And though it carries its self beautifully with an aura of arrogance and superiority it has low self esteem. Induce some clinical help, until then, not quite.

this stuff does really smell great, but does anyone else think it smell a lot like DKNY for men? They both contain ginger and citrus notes.

Super. I have never gotten so many complements on a colone

i can say that this is one of the best... the first time i smelled this, got really surprised... i never thought that it would smell really really good.. planning to give this to my husband...

212 Men has so far caught so much attention. It's very sexy, mysterious and sensual. It's long lasting & offers splendid sillage. Just 1 full spritz it lasts more than 5-6 hours. It has earned me lots of compliments and is very good if you have a hot date! Wear it and you'll be sniffed.

Even though you may spray only a drop it comes off as too heavy on a warm day so I assume it's not a good spring/summer fragrance. Besides it smells of some kind of medicated oil unless you're a woman kissing on your man's skin and smelling the remnants of the drydown which is excellent. Another good thing is you can't smell alcohol throughout its lifespan.

I normally use Eternity and D&G. A friend of mine recommended me to buy 212.Will it be a good buy and is it spicy cologne?. Guys please advise.

I have been to churches and Versace's L'homme reminds me of them. I have been to mosques and 212 Men reminds me of them. Great! Another unique mystical scent that is bound to be a permanent number in the temple of your array of heavenly perfumes.

One of the few fragrances that have excellent top notes. The ginger and grapefruit complement each other and then it dries down to mandarin slowly appearing like a tree growing in fast forward. The base notes are what wqmen find sexually appealing. This fragrance is comparable and in the same category as Muelhens' 4711 and will definitely be another classic except that 212 is an edt whereas the 4711 is merely an eau de cologne with notes even shorter in lifespan. Also, if you like grapefruit go for 212, and if you like lemon, 4711 is it.

HEY I DONT THINK ANYONE MENTIONED THE COOL MAGNET IN THE TOP. ONE OF THE BEST SCENTS TOO.

i luv dis, it smell so good man, my girl Sherry luv it to death, trust meits better than anyother fragerance, a really hook!

outstanding fragance... simply amazing.. well balanced between fresh/woody/ spicy-floral base,.. great lasting on skin.. sexy, versatile, masculine...

DEADMAN2K2 mentioned finding a similar frangrance. Try Fahrenheit by Christian Dior, I've been wearing this since 1989.

Ok, I blind folded my girlfriend and had her sniff several of my fragrances.I didnt want her to be influenced by the pretty bottles.She was really impressed by 212 and also said that it smelled like something for a woman.The next day, I picked my girl up from work at 5. When she got in the car, it hit me.I said,"What do you have on?" She said,"212". I asked her how much did she put on.She said ,"One spray."I asked her when did she put it on.She said,"Before I went to work."I was a bit envious of her chemistry.She sprays one time and it smelled like she just put it on after 8 hours.She thought I was going to be a bit upset, knowing that my fragrances are sacred. I told her to wear my fragrances on occasions so that I can get a different perspective of my fragrances.I realize that we have different chemistries, but it smelled great emanating from her.That night, I went out, and of course I wore 212.

NEW YORK AT IT'S FINEST!!! CAROLINA TRULY BROKE GROUND WITH THIS GEORGEOUS SCENT. ONE OF MY FAVORITES FOREVER.

All mentioned, except for Emporio, I really havent heard of.They probably wont carry them in the places I frequent.This will make my hunting expedition all the more exciting.Thanks again.

My boyfriend wears this cologne and I love it... very fresh and clean but still has that masculine cologne smell. I give it my highest recommendation.

Yang by Jacques Fath, Gendarme V by Gendarme, Verino by Robert Verino and Emporio Armani He by Giorgio Armani are some decent greens out there. Happy cologne hunting, TAJSMELLSGOOD!

Thanks for the recommendation.Swiss Army is not green to me, Echo is not nearly green enough and Paul Smith doesnt last,although I like it very much. Cant wait to try H20.This could be the one!

This fragrance ha a fresh top notes, it's really make me feel energic.And the base note is warm.I suggest for everybody not to over use this fragrance because of the strong base note can make yourself feel headache.

the same. 212 & h20.i have a 3.4 oz bottle of h20 and a sampler of 212. same grapefruity, green,clean, fresh scent. thedifference i believe is that h20 is meant to be an extreme version of the original. best green scent out there. if you are thinking about purchasing a fresh green scent please do not get swiss army, k.c.,echo or paul smith. try this and also smalto. p.s. outstanding lasting power.

What! Me spring in the air and break my . . . (sorry, Groucho) Ok, like they say, it's a trendy type of cologne, in fact I would venture to say it achieves total trendiosity and is indeed slated to become a cult classic of sorts, but it's just not my cup of citrus flowered tea. On the other hand 212 H20 really is a unique and captivating scent.

I bought this for my boyfriend for our 2 year anniversary and I don't regret it one bit. This scent is beautiful and absolutely enticing. I just couldn't stop smelling him when he put it on.

I like this one alot.The top notes do disappear quickly,but thats fine by me because it goes straight to the heart...the 'green' which I love so much.This isnt one of those sweet or soft greens like others I sampled.This is what I was looking for.Please feel free to recommend anything 'green'.The bottle has a nice modern look and the sprayer really gets you wet.

I haven't had enough time with it to form a solid opinion and rate it. All I'll say right now is that when I first smelled it, I was for some reason instantly reminded of sushi. Take that for what it's worth.

dude....u r probably buyin stuff out of clearing houses...honestly their stuffz are pretty old and after like 2 years of the manufacturing date of a cologne it kinda turns into the 3 min alchohole u were talking about.

among all the perfumes i have used,which is quite a few, this is the one that lasts the longest. the smeLL? tooooo damn goooood! very unique somehow, hardly find anything similar(apart frm 212 men h2o and ICE). And chickz? Belive me ,,,,, the love it!

Great sent one of my fav. went to to get a bottle at the mall guy wanted 75 dollars for You can get it here or sams club for the same price

This is easily one of the best colognes out there. Don't believe all these "it doesn't last very long comments. You could spray this on your clothes one day and it would last easily into the next. I don't even spray it on my clothes either. My friend proved it to me though. Very light, very nice. Girls love it.

WITH THIS SCENT, CAROLINA HERRERA DEFINITELY PUTS "212%" INTO PERFECTION FOR THE WEARER AND THE LUCKY LADIES THAT COME WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THIS AWESOME COLOGNE. IT WILL BE A CLASSIC IN DUE TIME. BET ON IT.

absolutely gorgeous, extremely haunting and atouched only to one man in the world(it's easy to be so naive when you smell it). I keep the cap in my handbag. love it.

The Best EVER!!!!!!!!! Woman come up to me and just compliment me.

i got this a few weeks ago and just as has happened to others, i think i'm addicted to it. it has a really unique smell and lasts very long. i have actually recieved compliments as much as 8 hours after putting it on.

The one I bought is 212 H2O, people say it's a newer version of 212, and they smell similar. 212 H2O has a pretty bottle(a soda bottle). Well well, can't discribe the smell....... Sweat....Musk..... Whatever, it just AWESOME!! Hasn't found anything bad to say. I also bought the 212 H2O for my girlfriend, Like I said, IT'S PERFECT!!! I would have give all the stars there is.

There's a nice floral theme to the fragrance. It's also aquatic and musky. Really refreshing and maybe even slightly feminine. I've received many a compliments on this nonetheless.

this cologne smells alot like deodorant but in a good way. lol. its really smooth and not to strong...the way i like it but would be better if it had a pinch of citrus.

Makes me Alive !

This is definately it's the new "Love potion #9". I bought it for my boyfriend and all I can say is YES!!!

are you leaving your colognes in the sunlight? if you are, thatz wut's causing the alcohol smell. sunlight breaks down the chemicals in cologne...therefore, cologne should be kept out of sunlight. also, if you wanna keep cologne smelling longer, try refrigerating it...

Hey I don't know if I'm just doing something wrong or what, because this happened with my Clinique Happy too.. but after like a month of having this stuff, I took it with me to Paris, and I smell alcohol only for like 3 minutes and then nothing! Anyone know why this has happened with this cologne and Happy also? It sucks, paying $40 for some water

if it doesnt last long, there is no point buying it.

My personal opinion: Pros: Top note fades away far too quickly, and is on the ‘light’ side Cons: Base note is of good strength and lingers for hours, leaving warm scent. Overall: Quite a good scent, and original. If only top note was more potent…

Strange dry out, not for me.

If the thought of green leaves and light floral scents appeal to you, 212 is what you want. Wonderful well balanced fragrance that will make you think of spring.

CAROLINA, I REALLY LOVE THIS IT IS THE BEST I GO CRAZY, WHEN MY BOY FRIEND, IS WEARING IT I ONLY LET HIM WEAR 212 OR VERY SEXY....... I LOVE 212 IT SMELLS DELICOUS.........

This is THE fragrance for men.

I was hesitant to buy the 212 30Ml at first but now it won my confident with as low as half a dab i small all day .... romanticalllt in fact am called 212 in School

simply, it does not long. The other day I sprayed a whole lot. After like 10 minutes, it vanished away. the smell is averge. So, with those combinations, it deserves horrible. :)

best perfume ın the world.all girls like it.my gf lick all my body when ı use ıt.:)

one of the few good scents on a male!

This scent is so elegant and intoxicating!

Amazing scent lovely florals with musk.

212 is very fresh and I can wear it every day without getting tired of it. This scent is not too swet and not too spicy, it's great and my girlfriend loves it. It's one of my top 5.

Very flowery, VERY effeminate and very, very disgusting. Both myself and my girlfriend couldn't wait for me to hit the shower after I tested this one.

beautiful scent

212 is the unsung hero in the world of men's cologne. I used Acqua Di Gio for years and then by 2000, every guy started wearing it. Drakkar revisited ... the hacks !!! So to separate the men from the boys, I needed a new scent. I started wearing 212 in early 2001 and I get nothing but compliments !!! This is my secret weapon and the women love it. That's right !!!

When applying it has a intriguing citrus & woody scent, but as the day wears on, it starts to mix with your body chemistry to give the most unique, warm aroma with a tint of spice. Just enough to make heads turn and to capture the attention. The biggest advantage lies in the fact that there is no other perfume that smells remotely close to it. It will definitely stamp "different" to your label...

This stuff smells great, but it is a bit too strong.

212 Men is absolutelly amazing and very sexy!!! We girls reeeally luv it!! It's the best perfume ever!!

very good scent....and as is true with all of the good ones, it doesn't overwhelm the room.

Bought this for my husband for Father's Day. What a turn on! This is a great fragrance!

Spelling out sex??????

because they cannot reject that smell

Fresh,unique and cool.

Really sweet thing. Fresh,floral and long lasting.Incredible!

What a wonderful stuff.Fresh and long lasting.

A truly amazing fragrance.Fresh, woody, long lasting.Girls adore it.

When i use it for the first time, at night,i feel me soo good. It gives men a sensual touch,this fragrance is one of the best i ever smells. one of the best

This scent is the perfect complement to 212 for woman. The scent is fresh with a very unique floral wood base. I recomend this if you really want something different and modern and up beat.
