When good girls want to become bad perfumas!
Hello and good evening! And of course welcome to my latest comment. Today it's "Good Girl Gone Bad" by Kilian and I'm just trying to pull myself together not to fall into endless blasphemies about women because of the fragrance name, that everything (i.e. the fragrance name and so on) would be right and even the Good Girls sometimes can be pretty big shit.... uh, I meant pretty monsters! Extremely brutal monsters!
But of course, the scent probably didn't make you think about what I just imagined as a "bad girl", uh, did it? So... uninhibited, sensual, a woman who is up for anything and likes to take risks, full of lust... um, at least according to the description of the fragrance, yes yes yes yes! So these were NOT my own words, maaaaan I'm not always to blame for everything when I write something reprehensible here *motz motz motz* :D
Hey hey, of course desire and lust doesn't have to have anything to do with sexuality, because the inspiration for the fragrance here even comes from the biblical story of original sin and the Fall, the tasting of the forbidden fruit and the associated expulsion from paradise, to put it very succinctly (... hm, wasn't it Eve's fault that she and Adam were expelled from paradise? Of course, the ladies again... yes, I know, that's not quite true, but it just had to happen again, he he :DD). But somehow the whole thing is still described in a confusing way, so where are the connections with all the descriptions and I didn't want to deal with it too much at the moment, because I didn't like the scent either and well, that's why I'll come to the scent description first.
At least thematically it should lead to the fact that everything begins innocently and then becomes more and more violent...
Well, after a while it still smells the same as it did before. Well, the sweetish is now a little bit covered by the just described stuffy-floral notes, which makes the fragrance even less pleasing to me, because it also becomes more and more stuffy. Moreover, it simply smells as unspectacular as many other, rather less successful floral scents, where you get the feeling that the perfumer didn't feel like composing a fragrance, but just mixed something together quickly and bored in order to do only the most necessary work.
In the base, the fragrance becomes a bit milder again, as far as the stuffy notes are concerned, because now some amber is added, but it still remains quite boring and not really well-scented. And thematically it remains rather sweet because of the flowery scents (which probably bother me more than you ladies), that means, there is no "Gone Bad"... so there are no "darker scents... I don't know, maybe smoky, animal, sexy seductive scents and so on... anyway, the fragrance turned out pretty boring overall.
The bottle! The bottle is rectangular and the sides show patterns carved into the glass. The front and back are white and therefore opaque, but you can see inside the bottle from above and along the edges. The golden label on the front shows the name and brand. The lid is also gold-plated. It is also delivered in a box with a golden snake figure (original sin theme) on it. All quite beautiful. The bottle is refillable.
Since Kilian is also on the fragrance, the disappointment is even greater. The only sin that can be found here is the exorbitant price for such a weak scent, which is not convincing either thematically or olfactorically...
So I can't recommend the fragrance to others, so you can't try it either, because you would only waste one arm if you sprayed yourself full with it. I haven't tried so many Kilians yet, but there were more beautiful scents among the tested scents, much more beautiful Kilians...
But at least Kilian was right about one thing, and that was the expression: "Good Girl Gone Bad", at least there is something true about it, and I don't seem to be the only one who thinks so about the ladies, mu ha ha ha :DD
But still not with this scent, no no, with this scent you won't become Bad Girls, at least olfactorically, but just stink... :D
Well, have a nice evening and see you next time :)

The smell:
Okay, the scent actually starts out nice. I smell powdery sweet jasmine, light fruit and most of all other floral notes, which are also sweet and I guess here the indicated lily of the valley. But the fragrance already has a slightly stuffy "white-flower" note, but we'll see how it goes on. Well, after a while it still smells the same as it did before.

The Sillage and the durability:
The charisma is okay, neither strong nor weak and therefore smells for a while, if you are not too far away. The shelf life is also rather moderate and is about four to six hours. The bottle! The bottle is rectangular and the sides show patterns carved into the glass. The front and back are white and therefore opaque, but you can see inside the bottle from above and along the edges. The golden label on the front shows the name and brand. The lid is also gold-plated. It is also delivered in a box with a golden snake figure (original sin theme) on it. All quite beautiful. The bottle is refillable.
Conclusion:
Well... this scent isn't really working for me. For me it mostly just smells like not really definable, flowery notes, which also come across as rather stuffy. So the fragrance is not only a bit unpleasant for me, but also very unspectacular and therefore extremely boring. Since Kilian is also on the fragrance, the disappointment is even greater. The only sin that can be found here is the exorbitant price for such a weak scent, which is not convincing either thematically or olfactorically...
So I can't recommend the fragrance to others, so you can't try it either, because you would only waste one arm if you sprayed yourself full with it. I haven't tried so many Kilians yet, but there were more beautiful scents among the tested scents, much more beautiful Kilians...

Well, have a nice evening and see you next time :)
