Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

260 BB follows Carolina Herrera Bad Boy's core structure well: the peppery bergamot opening, the sage and cedar heart, and the tonka bean, cacao and amberwood base that gave the original its charismatic, daring persona. As an aftershave rather than the full EDT, it trades some of the original's bold sillage and long wear time for a lighter, everyday-friendly finish, so the spicy-gourmand base doesn't project or last as long as the real Bad Boy's signature performance. The pepper-sage-cacao arc that made the original such a talked-about launch comes through clearly in the first hour or two, making this a reasonable lighter-format companion to the fuller fragrance.
