Good Girl Gone Bad

By the editors · 2 min readGood Girl Gone Bad opens with a white floral rush that feels surprisingly restrained—jasmine and rose arrive hand in hand with osmanthus, the latter lending a subtle apricot-leather undertone that keeps the bouquet from veering into bridal territory. The narcissus at its heart adds a green, almost narcotic density, grounding what could have been mere prettiness.

As it settles, cedar and amber create a woody warmth that feels more intimate than seductive, like expensive hair products and cashmere rather than anything overtly sultry. The "bad" in the name feels more wink than warning—this is rebellion expressed through restraint, florals made wearable for someone who usually avoids them.

A polished white floral with enough structure to avoid cliché, it works for those who want softness with a backbone, day or evening.
