Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bad Boy

A mainstream crowd-pleaser with a spicy-sweet punch. The cacao and warm tonka bean set it apart from generic blue scents, making it a playful, youthful, and seductive choice for evenings and cooler days.

Statement

Our Verdict - Durban

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Carolina Herrera Bad Boy (2019) - white pepper, cinnamon and tonka bean translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bad Boy

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

The spicy warmth, cacao, and sweet tonka make this a standout in cooler months and evenings, while the citrus and pepper bring enough freshness for spring. It can be heavy for high heat, so less optimal for summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office

Best for dates and nights out due to its sweet, warm, slightly seductive vibe. Works casually and for some offices if applied lightly, but is too bold and gourmand for sporty or very formal settings.
