Bad Boy Cobalt

Carolina Herrera · 2022

Fresh · Fruity · Sweet

Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Cobalt is a fresh, fruity men's fragrance that balances its sweetness with spice and wood, and leans towards easy everyday wear. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and summer, with winter trailing. Leisure and daily wear lead the occasions, though night out and business also get votes. Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters call it masculine and modern. It opens with lavender and pink pepper; in the heart, Egyptian geranium and black plum add a fruity sweetness. The base of vetiver, oak, cedarwood and truffle builds a dry, woody foundation, and a synthetic edge shows in the accords. Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit de L'Homme Eau Électrique and Chopard 1000 Miglia Extreme have a close profile.
