Bad Boy

★★★★☆Editorial rating 4.2/5 · How we rateEau de Toilette · 100 ml

Bad Boy by Carolina Herrera wraps you in warming spices and oriental richness. Black pepper and bergamot in the opening; sage and cedar at the heart; tonka bean, cocoa and amber in the base. With strong sillage and 7–9 h longevity, it shines best in the evening and in winter. Bold and memorable, not one for quiet moments.
