Bad Boy Extreme by Carolina Herrera is a dark, spiced cacao scent built for cold nights. Bergamot opens it next to ginger and plum, with cacao adding a bitter-sweet edge early on. Clary sage and incense move in through the heart, and tonka bean adds a soft sweetness underneath. The base settles into vetiver, patchouli, labdanum and opoponax, earthy and resinous with a trace of smoke. Launched in 2022, it is built with men in mind, and suits anyone drawn to warm, spicy scents with real weight. Voters wear it in winter and autumn, through the evening and night, before going out. Most wearers vote its longevity long-lasting, and the sillage vote lands clearly on strong. Try a 3ml decant across a run of cold nights before you decide on more.

The house
More from Carolina Herrera

Good Girl is the obvious first pick, a sweet white floral with a spicy heat. Good Girl Blush is lighter, floral and vanilla with a citrus lift. On the men's side, Bad Boy Extreme mixes warm spice, amber and cacao. Very Good Girl Elixir is the dessert of the family: cherry, almond and vanilla. The credits include perfumers Louise Turner and Quentin Bisch.
