Anyone who enjoys perfume should appreciate it, since it’s their opinion and not mine, and I respect all others. A perfume that just happens to have very good performance, almost a pity, because it’s a scent that sticks and lasts at least 7 hours but is unpleasant. I didn’t give it hate points because it has an unusually explosive performance, but with that cannabis note, even in the opening, the vibe of the scent lingers for the majority of the wear. Besides being synthetic cannabis, it has pepper that smells like boiling urine. Then, after 6 hours, it becomes slightly more pleasant, but with a tiny cannabis vibe smelling between urine, saliva, and fentanyl. This is a review, it’s personal; I’m not against those who like the scent of this perfume, it’s just my opinion.
A strange scent, yes, masculine, you’d never smell it on a woman, but that cannabis note is a nightmare; it’s so intense it makes me dizzy with just one spray. Of the rays, this one is very interesting; Cobalt feels normal to me, it smells like plum soap. Longevity: over 8 hours (normal-dry skin). Projection: Heavy ≥2 hours (normal-dry skin). Scent: 7/10 (it’s very original, hence this score). The name fits perfectly, something a guy who thinks he’s bad would use. That makes it masculine, but a bit pretentious, for someone young, arrogant, and extroverted. This fragrance is not versatile at all, nor does everyone like it.
With all due respect, this fragrance is the worst I’ve ever smelled, by far. The opening is abominable, with a synthetic and aggressive scent that is totally unbearable. I don’t understand how people can like something like this. On top of that, it doesn’t improve with time at all; it remains unpleasant, with an artificial and strange scent that never quite fits.
One of my favorite fragrances; on my nose, it smells very rich. It opens with a sweet, potent grapefruit. Between 20-30 minutes, the scent shifts and the cannabis appears in the mix; in my case, I sense a slightly smoky note added to the grapefruit and pepper. After 3 hours, it becomes a more woody scent. Some say it’s for night out, but I’ve used it during the day with zero problems; I don’t recommend using it on a hot day, but in other climates, it works well. On skin, it lasts 8 hours and projects for the first 2 hours and 30 minutes, then fades in intensity and projects close to the skin. It was a blind buy and it turned out great.
I’m glad some people love this fragrance. Honestly, it produced an instant rejection for me that lasted until the fourth hour, when it had already faded and the leather was playing a bigger role. The cannabis note was missing; the only impression it gave me was that of a typical strong men’s deodorant. Not for a penny would I pay what they ask, since automatically associating a deodorant with a perfume threw the whole experience out the window.
Easy, easy, top 2 of the worst perfumes I’ve ever tried… Absolute rejection as soon as I sprayed it. It’s the first fragrance that made me want to vomit. I don’t know if it’s an abnormal case, a bad batch, or if it has an ‘Arab perfume complex’ where you need to let it macerate or oxidize, but in my opinion, it’s just a horrible thing.
I only tested it once at a Liverpool store, so this opinion isn’t entirely objective. That said, stay as far away from this thing as possible. Literally, it smelled like poop to me; I didn’t know cannabis smelled like that. Even worse, it lasts quite well but sticks to the skin. Not even gifted, plus it feels synthetic. Despite this, it’s not the worst I’ve tried. Well, not even the saleswoman liked it.
On my nose, it’s a very linear perfume, a sweet and spicy cannabis that lasts throughout the entire fragrance journey until, after a few hours, it blends with the leather. It’s a delight, a perfume I can’t stop smelling; in my opinion, it’s a work of art.
The scent of the true bad boy! Smells like marijuana that lingers in the dry down, accompanied by juicy, sweet grapefruit and leather that feels like a good leather jacket from an authentic bad boy. It’s a compliment generator with above-average performance: heavy trail for over two hours and massive longevity of 8 to 10 hours.
Well, things are as they are: current batches last a breath; after an hour, you hardly perceive it. The scent isn’t for everyone due to that stalk-of-cannabis smell; in my case, I learned to love it. My recommendation is: smell it first and don’t make the mistake of buying blindly. Thank me later.
Bad Boy Le Parfum is a daring and surprising olfactory experience. Zesty grapefruit and electrifying hemp notes give way to an aromatic, spicy heart of geranium and black pepper, while the base reveals woody vetiver and sensual leather. It redefines the iconic original with a novel, bolder formula. Perfumers: Fanny Bal and Bruno Jovanovic. I’ve been saying for years that sexy perfumes are noticeable at first sniff, and this is one of them. Seriously, you detect a subliminal, carnal, and daring scent; the moment I smelled it, I knew it was mimicking the smell of 🤭. It’s a great perfume, women will absolutely love it, I know.
Horrible smell. Maybe I’m wrong, but it reminded me of Aqua di Gio EDP, which I hate with my whole soul. To give you some context, I smell rust in both, which causes me deep rejection. I don’t know why I smell it that way—maybe it’s synthetic or a specific note—but I don’t know. I didn’t even get to smell the dry down; maybe it changes, but the blast right out of the atomizer was enough for me. Definitely, I don’t think it’s worth buying blindly. In my case, I would never buy it.
In the world of designer perfumery, Bad Boy Le Parfum is one of the most original fragrances. Its blend of leather, pepper, and a very prominent cannabis note creates a truly distinctive aroma. Personally, that cannabis note overwhelms me; I don’t feel comfortable wearing it, but I understand it varies by taste. However, its performance is excellent, making it an interesting option to stand out at night events, without a doubt.
I like it, but it’s not for everyone. Don’t buy blindly.
A perfume that gives me great satisfaction for special occasions and makes you noticed. It’s not the typical citrus, marine, and sweet scent; it leans more into leather with that cannabis note that makes it unique. I recommend it for nightwear and special events. In conclusion, I give it 8 out of 10. Sillage 7, Longevity 8, Innovation 9, Compliments 7. Total 8.
So rich and so different. That alone makes it worth it. I sense an earthy vibe that makes it super masculine. It’s one of the few Bad Boys that truly lives up to its name. I don’t think it will win many women over, so don’t expect compliments when wearing it. Recommend it if you want something different from the rest.
A perfume that invites you to sniff it constantly. It’s a sweet, dark cannabis scent that accompanies you throughout its entire evolution. Something new, something different. An excellent fragrance.
Today I received this gem. Prices dropped significantly in Argentina, so I grabbed a 150ml bottle. I checked the batch, and it’s from 2021—insane projection and longevity! If you know the DNA of this fragrance, it will remind you a lot of the original plant mixed with very formal leather. The opening is a spicy grapefruit, and within two minutes, you feel those two notes clearly. PERFUMON. They say current batches don’t last, but this older one delivers as expected: massive longevity and a strong trail. Definitely for winter or cold days (in my opinion).
I’m writing this to share something about batch numbers. I bought this perfume online from a well-known retailer and it’s still clinging to my jacket after over a week of daily wear. Hopefully, it lasts as long as older batches did, because lately, people are complaining that batches don’t last. My point is: don’t panic about batch numbers. Over time and with use, batches repeat. This perfume is already years old, and the website data might be outdated. I bought a 2025 Hermes bottle, but the batch code said 2021; another site listed 2023, and the box had no data. I went to the store as a regular customer, and comparing my sample to the counter sample, they were different batches. Research shows batch websites are way behind; I even had a batch from before the perfume existed. Sure, there’s maceration time, but that date was way off. The perfume should have been expired or oxidized, yet it doesn’t look oxidized in color. Important note: after using it for months, regarding longevity, it doesn’t last a short time—it has an intense sillage that blinds the nose. You stop noticing it, and that’s where the myth of poor longevity is born. It’s still there, magnificent, even if you forget to perceive it.
Huge longevity and projection; everyone will notice you. Not everyone likes it, especially women don’t like it much, but that doesn’t matter. Try it and you won’t regret it; it’s a very masculine and interesting scent.
Projection and longevity are a solid 10; perfect for going out at night. It has a youthful touch but with a masculine vibe, though that spicy base might not appeal to everyone. I’d give it 8.5—it’s rich but not for everyone. The trail is fantastic, making it ideal for nighttime wear.
Personally, it’s a disgusting smell; I haven’t given it another chance. It smells like marijuana from those times you pass through a dangerous neighborhood and people are smoking the cheapest weed. So, I don’t like it, even though I like strong perfumes. It’s for cold weather, where it might stand out, but a girl smelled it and told me it smells bad.
It has an opening of apple and cannabis that makes you want to move away. After a few minutes, you start to feel the spicy notes, the pepper, and the citrus very subtly. From time to time, I get waves of a scent similar to Scandal Le Parfum, very aromatic, to finish on a base of leather and vetiver that is very pleasant to wear. You have to endure the opening, which doesn’t please everyone.
It’s an excellent perfume to smell different and stand out in casual or party occasions… but only if you’re under 25. I can’t imagine someone 30 or older using this.
It’s a night in a bottle. If you try it at first, you might not like it and say it’s horrible, because it has a very intense and masculine scent. You have to be brave to wear it. It’s ideal for night, but it’s not for everyone.
It’s a piece of perfume; I’d use it as my signature scent every day of my life. I don’t care if no one likes it or if they think it smells like marijuana; this is incredible. The grapefruit in the opening is simply addictive; it’s a grapefruit mixed with that green hemp smell from the cannabis plant that is amazing and has a very notable quality. Then it moves to that leather mixed with a green part and a spicy part. Simply beautiful. Maybe you’ll cross paths with someone who doesn’t like it, but if you know how to wear it, you’ll convey that you are truly the ‘bad boy’ this line tried to represent.
Without a doubt, it’s the worst perfume I’ve ever smelled. It smells like cheap marijuana. Never buy it blind.
Definitely not for everyone: you either love it or hate it, it almost fits the niche category. You need experience with perfumes because the notes aren’t common, and if it’s your first time, it will feel strange. I like it; it’s elegant and mysterious. The cannabis and leather notes stand out, giving an earthy and aromatic vibe. Although it doesn’t generate many compliments, it sparks curiosity about what you’re wearing. The cannabis smells smoky from the start, then the leather kicks in; while it’s not as refined as Ombré Leather, it delivers and you notice it immediately, and it’s what lingers until the end. You need character to wear it. It’s more about personal taste than generating compliments, perfect for cold weather and dressed up. It smells like the real ‘Bad Boy’.
Reviewing this separately to say it smells exactly as promised: cannabis, grapefruit, and leather. In the dry down, the vetiver is very characteristic of CH. There’s an undeclared note that isn’t smoky but rather gunpowder. Be careful not to confuse it with patchouli/marijuana; it’s a different story. The grapefruit reminds me a lot of Scandal Le Parfum but without the sweetness. If you like that but not the sugar, this is your perfect option: fresh but with weight from the leather. It’s very similar, just without the sweetness.
An impressive discovery. They say perfumes define you, but simply, you must pass a few years to find something that speaks for you, that tells you… you’re finding your own identity. That is Bad Boy Le Parfum for me. That’s it… it makes you think, you want to follow its trail, it catches and captivates you. And finally, you find yourself. Yes, that’s who I am.
Smells terrible, like someone who hasn’t showered in days.
Call me crazy if you want, but this is one of the most carnal and sexual perfumes I’ve ever smelled. I make perfumes and smell them so many times until I figure out what it reminds me of, and gentlemen, you’ll be left speechless: this perfume perfectly depicts the smell of a penis. Just like these perfumers hear it, they’re crazy. Haha, but well, to attract women, it might work.
I don’t like designer fragrances because nowadays all the masculine ones smell like bubblegum or are overly sweet. In that context, Bad Boy Le Parfum is one of the few I have because it’s an interesting proposal. It has a citrus opening with grapefruit and then develops herbs that would be fresh cannabis, giving no sensation of having smoked. It’s a bold, daring, yet elegant composition. I can’t say bad things; it’s creative, the best face of the cannabis world, and the real bad boy of the family. At the bottom, it has leather and dense things that give it a chocolatey and dark aroma, so I don’t recommend buying it blind or going by the opening alone, as it changes a lot: it starts herbal/citrusy and ends dark. It’s true that because it’s risky, it can drift into metallic, oxidized, and bodily sensations, giving it a reputation as a strange perfume; even it seems the brand wanted to leave that concept behind with flankers that are sweeter and more vulgar. In summary, it’s easy to test in stores so it’s not worth buying blind, but be careful with the opening; this has several hours of development. It’s an elegant and youthful aroma, and even with its cannabis note, it’s more elegant than the rest of the Bad Boys. A perfume that might interest you if you’re a hipster who wouldn’t wear Invictus or One Million.
Very good, well masculine and versatile, with that excessively green cannabis and grapefruit note that makes it very particular, before finally blending into the powerful cannabis-leather accord. Quite attractive besides, I got many compliments. 9.8/10. It’s one drop away from vanilla from being bottled perfection.
Review of my late 2023 batch. The first time I smelled it in a boutique, I loved it, with a certain hype around its cannabis note that I thought would make it an excellent choice. I decided to buy it in December 2025 and have been using it for a few weeks. I love it from its energizing opening with grapefruit and spices, making it refreshing with hints of cannabis greenery, simply sublime. It’s one of my favorite openings from this new wave of youthful yet elegant scents. Then the body becomes creamy, and I don’t understand where that habanera-like sweetness comes from; it gives me faint memories of Azzaro Most Wanted, though they are very different, but I do notice that creamy sweetness. It’s supported by a leather and vetiver base that gives it an earthy, tangible touch, a soft and persistent leather alongside a certain sweetness, delicious to feel that mix that makes you want to make love. The performance on my batch is that it stops projecting after 5-6 hours, but if you reapply, it’s no problem. Olfactorily, it’s brutal for cannabis lovers. I’ll return in a few months to wait for it to oxygenate and macerate better; without a doubt, its performance will improve. It’s a gem from the designer, a niche for those who know how to enjoy it. It became one of my most interesting fragrances in my collection of 16. 9/10 solid. Update: almost 2 months later, as I suspected, it improved. Before, it wasn’t noticeable after 6 hours; now it lasts 8-9 hours, projects well for the first 3h, stays on clothes for 2 days, and the scent remains incredible. I also discovered its clean, soapy facet; perhaps the geranium mixed with another note gives it that clean character.
I’ve never tried this fragrance, but I was intrigued to discover it has a cannabis sativa note. I’m just leaving this review to express my amazement at reading that some people say it smells like a penis. We’ve read reviews mentioning plastic dolls, petroleum, burnt rubber, urine… but the “smells like a penis” comment really got to me. Luckily, I’m straight and not Inspector Gadget, so I don’t have to smell it myself. I’ll happily keep the mystery of what it smells like. Maybe it smells like Melendi in the 2000s.
It’s a complicated fragrance. I tested it on a strip and it’s not ugly, but it’s harder to assemble a Rubik’s cube if you’re colorblind. It’s like the girl you secretly like, but if your friends ask, you tell them it smells bad; even though you like it, you don’t know when to wear it. It looks bad in the office, out of place at elegant events, and awkward on a first date. Though it’s a matter of personal taste, I think it’s a perfume for a select few. I’d wear it at a barbecue or a hangout with friends and a few female friends mixed in.
I’ve been wearing this for over a year, exclusively at night. The recent reviews are a bit ridiculous, with all due respect. It’s a unique scent among designer fragrances I’ve tried; it reminded me slightly of 212 Heroes at first, but then it turns floral, which I don’t like. It’s hard to describe, but I’d say herbal and spicy at the start, then slightly sweet and barely warm, nothing like those mainstream vanilla or lavender sweets. It doesn’t smell like marijuana; maybe a brief burst reminds you of a wet plant, but there’s no weed odor. I don’t notice the leather, or it’s very soft when close to the skin. It lasts at least 8 hours.
Okay, my turn. This scent blends citrus, spices, leather, and a hint of cannabis that doesn’t smell like resin or green leaves, but rather a mashed-up herb with a touch of sweet grapefruit concentrate. The opening is potent and strong for 15-25 minutes. The heart is simple, featuring soft pepper and geranium that adds a playful floral touch, maintaining the strength of the initial notes for about 2-3 hours. My favorite part is the base: a clean, new leather that outshines the cannabis accord, paired with neat vetiver and woodiness. It lasts around 6-7 hours. It’s a heavy, sticky, and attention-grabbing aroma, ideal for cold climates or spring nights, though better suited for evening wear. Imagine hopping on your new motorcycle loaded with weed to go meet your date at a scenic overlook. It smells very masculine and lives up to its name. It’s not complex, easy to understand. Scent: 10/10, Price: 5.5/10, Sillage: 8.5/10, Versatility: 6/10, Longevity: 7/10.
It’s a particular perfume. The opening is strange due to that cannabis note, giving it a distinct herbal vibe that won’t appeal to everyone; I’d even dare say it’s a risky move for a designer, but that’s exactly what makes it marvelous and unique. Its longevity is excellent, and I love it even more once it dries down. Maybe it won’t suit everyone, but I absolutely adore it.
