Carolina Herrera launched La Bomba in June 2025, a new feminine pillar the house places alongside its great classics. The eau de parfum first appeared in the shops of major airports, where it was sold before reaching perfumeries.

The name goes back to the 1980s, when fashion editor Diana Vreeland nicknamed Carolina Herrera “La Bomba” for her energy. The house dedicates the fragrance to the Herrera woman, joyful, sensual and daring, and to the freedom to fully own who she is.

Three perfumers

The composition brings together Christophe Raynaud, Quentin Bisch and Louise Turner, whom the house presents as master perfumers. They also signed La Bomba Intensa, announced in June 2026, built on wild berries, a Venezuelan orchid and a red amber.

What the house says about it

Carolina Herrera describes a fruity floral ambery fragrance, lively and radiant. Pitaya, exotic and juicy, bursts in the opening; cherry peony, touched with rose, and red frangipani, close to jasmine but fruitier, bloom in the middle of the composition; a solar vanilla brings a spicy warmth.

The advertising

Vittoria Ceretti, I Like It

Carolina Herrera entrusts the La Bomba campaign to model Vittoria Ceretti, set to I Like It by Cardi B, Bad Bunny and J Balvin.

For the launch, Carolina Herrera makes Vittoria Ceretti its global ambassador and the face of La Bomba. The model wears pink and red dresses matching the bottle, created for her by Wes Gordon, the house’s creative director, in the New York atelier.

The campaign moves to I Like It, the track by Cardi B, Bad Bunny and J Balvin, and stages the daring and confidence the house attributes to La Bomba. It presents its muse as a woman who lives with bold authenticity.
