The review
On paper, B.A.D Homme is a strong bet if you want Bad Boy for less.
Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bad Boy's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $25 it costs 81% less than Bad Boy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Maison Alhambra publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on white pepper, bergamot and pink pepper, turns to cedarwood and clary sage, and settles into Tonka Bean and cacao. That is the brief B.A.D Homme is working from.
Top
- white pepper
- bergamot
- pink pepper
Heart
- cedarwood
- clary sage
Base
- Tonka Bean
- cacao
For the one who likes a peppery, cocoa-dusted edge, opening spicy and bright before drying into a creamy, addictive tonka-and-cacao trail.
