Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Releases To Compliment Good Girl Parfum But I Never Really Smelled Like a Good Girl At All

Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Eau de Parfum arrives at sephora.com today with a cool, warm, spicy elements. The scent was created to compliment Carolina’s Good Girl Perfume that launched a few years ago. I’m just throwing it out there but Good Girl smells nothing like a good girl…! It’s all bad! Ha…! Good Girl comes across harsh to my nose! It’s a heady tonka blend that tickles my nose and makes me want to sneeze. It’s one of the very rare scents that I purchased spontaneously on a blind buy that I didn’t love.

Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Eau de Toilette uses the same tonka bean element and and mixes it with amber and cocoa. I typically don’t get crazy over men’s fragrances but the amber note caught my eye and there’s a good chance that Bad Boy might turn into a unisex blend for some of us. It may also, end up complimenting Good Girl if there two are cocktailed! That’s up for debate obviously until we actually play mad scientist and do the mixing. I’m oddly attracted to warm, amber fragrances and I’ve been known to apply men’s perfume a time or two!

The scent opens with White Pepper, Black Pepper and Bergamot, settles on to skin with Sage and Cedar, and dries down to warm Tonka Bean, Cacao and Amberwood notes.

If Bad Body isn’t as heady as Good Girl and the amber plays nicely with some of the citrus elements in this blend it might just be a win for women as well as men!

Have you ever worn a men’s fragrance?

The Tale of MAC Black Mirror Paint Pot and An Uber Eats Estee Lauder Partnership

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Uber Eats and Estee Lauder partnered up to start delivering makeup and beauty to your door with same day delivery recently. I slammed the service on Instagram a few short weeks ago because I felt like it was ridiculous and in some ways I still do. Living in New York I pretty much have easy access to just about everything I need and it’s no great chore just going to the store to picking up what I need. I also have really great success with both Sephora and Ulta and getting my packages very quickly if I order online.

Estee Lauder recently announced that they would be partnering with Uber Eats to allow quick deliver of Jo Malone and Origins. Why they limited it to those brands is beyond me! Apparently during the soft launch that will be all they offer and if they see good results they’ll add more brands. Honestly? Jo Malone and Origins are the two brands I’d likely never need immediately. This feels destined to fail if that’s what they decide to test this market with.

Anyway, click, buy, and pickup curbside has become a standard way of living during the pandemic. Everyone from Lowes to Cheesecake Factory to Nordstrom has curbside available! But what if it’s late and you just don’t want to drive to pick up that item your inner makeup addict demands it needs to satisfy it’s need for instant gratification?

Yesterday, I got this intense need to pick up MAC Black Mirror Paint Pot after seeing someone on Tiktok use it as a base for black eyeshadow. People, when the hell have I done a smoky eye in the last year? Really now? But the makeup addict wants what the makeup wants! So, I headed onto Nordstrom.com clicked, purchased, and drove over to pick it up after work. I actually hauled a lot of the new Spring 2021 matte shades but Black Mirror just passed by my radar because I knew I’d rarely use it! But I felt compelled to do some sort of sultry eye look with it suddenly. This is one of those moments I’d probably totally do an Uber Eats for makeup! I sort of hate Nordy’s curbside as they say it’s ready and you head over but you’re idling in the car for a while before they bring it out and I’m one of those un-aggressive people that will patiently wait and not bother anyone to ask after the order.

Uber Eats would be quicker and easier!

So, yeah, maybe…maybe…I’d use Uber Eats to order up some makeup in the future.

Would you?

P.S. You need to go buy Black Mirror now so we can smear this all over our eyes to make ourselves look seggy!
