Good Girl Blush Carolina Herrera 2023 Eau de Parfum
1
Three perfumes in one!
Good Girl Blush is more in line with Very Good Girl than regular Good Girl: A sweet, rosy fruity floral that recalls PDM Delina. Surprisingly it doesn't even have rose or any fruit beyond bergamot in the notes list! But the peony note here is really domninant and rose-like and the juicy sweetness of the scent comes across as fruity to me.
Underneath the peony and the fresher top notes lies a layer of vanillic, musky sweetness. It's quite fluffy and creamy, especially on my skin (more so than on a blotter!), and this part of the fragrance reminds me of Lattafa Yara and Montblanc Signature.
The last layer of the fragrance is a touch of subtle Good Girl DNA. If you have tried the original, you will recognize the sweet-ish, but also slightly scratchy tonka bean here. In Good Girl Blush it's way less pronounced than in the original though, I think it's completely possible to like one of them and hate the other.
You see, this is an olfactory pastiche of different trendy accords. I like them all, they work together very well and this mix didn't exist before, so I'm not complaining. I also think that the scent is very fitting for the light pink of the bottle. It's essentially a softer, springy, intensely peony-infused Good Girl.
I already have Delina, Yara and Good Girl Légère in my collection, so I did a little experiment and layered them all on my arm. And what can I tell you... The result does smell similar to Good Girl Blush, but even better. It's richer, deeper and has a little less sourness to it. Therefore I made my decision - I will wear this combo out (and try not to overdose while layering 3 scents) instead of buying Good Girl Blush. It's still a lovely scent, just not original enough to own it if you already have a big collection with all the similar fragrances.
