Launched in 2019, Bad Boy is the masculine counterpart to Good Girl at Carolina Herrera. A spicy oriental composition — bergamot and peppers in the top notes, cedar and clary sage in the heart, tonka bean and cocoa in the base — fresh, woody and sensual, in its electric blue lightning bolt-shaped bottle.
White pepper, spicy and warmly luminous, and pink pepper, soft and spicy, occupy the top notes alongside bergamot, fruity and sweet: the two peppers meet on spice, while bergamot holds the fruit and sugar.
Cedar, woody and evoking pencil shavings, sits alongside clary sage, herbaceous and green, in the heart: a dry wood facing a greenness.
Tonka bean, toasted and almondy, accompanies cocoa, chocolatey and bitter, in the base: the toastiness of one contrasts with the bitterness of the other over the same gourmand base.
