Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Elixir - Woda Perfumowana

Amazing product

Thanks to Influenster, I had the opportunity to try Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Elixir. The cologne comes in a distinctive, large bottle that, while providing a generous volume, can be somewhat cumbersome to pack and travel with. I found the sweet, woody fragrance to be pleasant and subtle. If you're looking to add a sweet and woody scent to your cologne collection, I would recommend giving this a try.

Very classy

This is my favourite cologne. I’ve had many compliments both men and women and they all say it smells like a higher quality product. Very cool design

Great addition to the Bad Boy line!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Carolina Herrera’s Bad Boy Elixir is an oriental woody fragrance that amplifies the iconic Bad Boy line with a bold, leathery edge, presented in a striking brown lightning bolt bottle symbolizing the House of Herrera’s premium craftsmanship. The scent opens with aromatic sage, delivering a fresh, herbaceous kick, before transitioning into a rich, smoky leather heart that exudes masculine sophistication. A grounding cedarwood base rounds out the composition, offering a warm, slightly dry finish that lingers for around 8-10 hours with moderate sillage, ideal for evening wear or cooler seasons. Overall, Bad Boy Elixir is a charismatic, versatile addition for those who appreciate a darker, more mature take on the Bad Boy DNA.

Bad Boy - now with an electric leather flanker!

A long-lasting lavender + leather flanker to the familiar bad boy series. True to the original DNA with this deep undertone to justify its elixir name. The main reason I really enjoy this one is the sweetness (with some iris) has this smoky undertone to it. That smokiness is from the olibanum. This is a night out fragrance - any season of the year. As it dries, it get earthier (if that's up your alley). It's sufficiently different from other mainstream releases that you'll definitely be unique among the crowd. Nice bottle - especially if you own more from this collection. Compared to other elixirs in the market these days, this is actually a fair asking price.

A Bold Statement Scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] As part of an influencer program, I received Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Eau de Toilette, and I’m excited to share my thoughts on this striking fragrance. Known for its iconic lightning bolt bottle, Bad Boy is a spicy-ambery scent that aims to capture the essence of modern masculinity with a rebellious edge. The fragrance opens with a punchy blend of white and pink pepper, paired with the zesty brightness of Italian green bergamot. This creates a lively, slightly spicy kick that grabs attention right away. As it settles, the heart notes of cedarwood and clary sage add a woody, aromatic depth, giving it a grounded yet sophisticated vibe. The base notes of tonka bean and cacao steal the show, delivering a warm, subtly sweet chocolatey finish that’s both inviting and seductive. It’s a versatile scent that feels perfect for evening outings or cooler fall and winter days. Performance-wise, Bad Boy offers moderate longevity, lasting around 5-6 hours on my skin with a few sprays. The projection is decent for the first couple of hours, creating a noticeable but not overpowering scent bubble. The bottle design is a standout—sleek, bold, and undeniably cool, it’s a conversation starter on any dresser. Overall, Carolina Herrera Bad Boy is a confident, crowd-pleasing fragrance that balances spice, warmth, and sweetness. It’s ideal for anyone looking to channel a charismatic, daring persona without being too over-the-top. I’d rate it a solid 4/5 for its versatility and unique bottle design. Definitely worth a try if you’re after a modern, masculine scent

Smooth, sweet and long lasting

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] After wearing this fragrance a handful of times, I am very impressed by the scent and longevity. It opens up with a deep, rich leathery accord which projects strongly for the first 30 minutes or so. It’s quite a wearable and crowd pleasing leather in my opinion. The lavender adds a calming freshness and airiness on top. As it dries down, the scent stays fairly linear but performance is above average for a designer. Lasts about 8 hours on my skin and can still get a faint whiff the next day. Perfect for fall/winter in my opinion.

⚡️nice bottle

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I received Bad Boy Elixir in exchange for my honest review. While it’s not my personal favorite, it has a well-blended dark, smoky scent with hints of leather, spice, and citrus that many will enjoy. The scent has a nice presence when worn, and the stylish, durable packaging adds to its appeal. However, the price is a bit high compared to other fragrances. The shape of the bottle like thunder ⚡️is very unique looks nice on the dresser and people usually ask of this bottle what Colonge is that ?

A great, easy to wear leather fragrance!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] In the past few weeks of using this fragrance I’ve loved it! It checks all the boxes for me, good scent profile, great projection and amazing longevity. This fragrance lasts about 7-8 hours on skin and still projects. Although there is no vanilla in the notes I kind of get some in the opening and mid, but the leather is the star of the show and is present all the way to the dry down especially when paired with the cedar wood. Overall Bad Boy Elixir is a very good affordable leather fragrance that performs well and smells great.

Bold, mature, and versatile with a striking bottle

Bad Boy Elixir is a sweet and spicy scent with a mature edge that makes it incredibly versatile. The sage and leather notes open the fragrance with bold warmth and depth, while the cedarwood base provides a smooth, lingering finish. The projection is strong in the first few hours, then softens into a subtle presence that lasts well into the day. Ideal for work, date nights, or special occasions, this has become a go-to in my rotation due to its versatility. While the fragrance speaks for itself, the bottle is equally impressive—striking, artistic, and a true statement piece. A must-have for anyone looking to elevate their collection with something bold, and refined.
