Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 212 EDT
A quintessential fresh floral that balances green, citrus, and soft musk, 212 is understated yet confident - perfect for those who want to smell crisp and effortlessly modern every day.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 212 EDP
Divain's 212 dupe follows the citrus-and-white-floral formula of Carolina Herrera's original closely - bergamot and orange blossom into gardenia and jasmine - though the sandalwood-musk base doesn't hold up nearly as long.
