Ch Bad Boy Le Parfum

Mostly cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers. Underneath that, sharp and peppery, more like cracked pepper than baking spice.

It opens on cannabis and grapefruit, moves through black pepper and geranium, and settles on leather and vetiver.

• grapefruit: bitter-fresh citrus, more tart and less sweet than orange
• black pepper: dry and hot, like pepper cracked straight from the mill

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
