Modelled profile
Cacao and tonka pour out sweet and creamy, sharpened by a lick of pepper and steadied by cedar. Very sweet in character yet kept upright by the dry woods beneath. Bold, moreish and youthful.

Bad Boy keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere.
Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
