Eau de Toilette

Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Eau de Toilette is a masculine scent that sets the brightness of pink pepper, Italian bergamot and grapefruit against the sweetness of cocoa absolute and tonka bean. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn, spring and winter, with summer far less favoured. It leans towards nights out, leisure time and evenings, and is chosen less for the office or daily wear. Voters call it masculine and modern. It opens with citrus and peppers: pink, black and white pepper add spice over bergamot and grapefruit. In the heart, vetiver and clary sage give a dry, woody footing. The base brings a gourmand sweetness from cocoa absolute and tonka bean. The overall impression is fresh, spicy and sweet. Bad Boy Power Up Spray and Invictus Victory have a close profile.
