Good Girl is a rich, gourmand floral with a dark, sweet, and slightly spicy base. The opening is bright and bold, characterized by a mix of citrus, almond, and coffee, which quickly turns into a creamy, powdery, and slightly soapy floral bouquet. On most skin types, the tuberose and jasmine dominate in the middle stage, contributing to a lush, heavy floral character that some find overwhelming. The base is where the perfume truly unfolds—warm, sweet, and earthy with notes of vanilla, praline, cacao, and cashmere wood, giving it a deep, velvety, and well-rounded character that lingers for hours. Its sillage is moderate to strong, making it ideal for evening wear, particularly in colder climates. While some find the creaminess overpowering or the sweetness cloying, others appreciate the cohesive blend and the inviting, seductive aura it projects. The perfume’s appeal lies in its polished execution and ability to generate strong compliments on many wearers. It’s not an original or mysterious scent, but its blend of sweetness and substance makes it a confident, crowd-pleasing choice with strong note balance.
