The fragrance itself has a slight above average eau de parfum longevity and the silage itself is not weak either where in the first four hours is very noticeable which then turns into a more intimate spillage. The atomizer is extremely satisfying and is very good where if you press normally-hard then it would spray a perfect amount but if you slightly press the atomizer then a small amount would come and would be perfect for smelling everyone once in a while. The price is on the higher side and even though it’s worth it, it is still expensive.

Received this sample and I absolutely love the smell! My 14 year old son just recently gained an interest in cologne and smelling “nice” and he loved the smell almost instantly when he put it on. I also found the scent wasn’t too strong, so he would be able to wear it to school in a daily basis. My husband also tried it so I could give an honest review and my husband isn’t typically the kind of person who wears cologne or scents very often but even he really enjoyed the smell, and the longevity of this men’s perfume is great! My husband sprayed it on his shirt in the morning before leaving for work and he still smelled amazing when he got home 8 hours later. It has a very masculine yet elegant smell to it if I had to describe it with a bit of spice. It’s an ... MoreReceived this sample and I absolutely love the smell!

It has a very masculine yet elegant smell to it if I had to describe it with a bit of spice. It’s an addicting smell. We love the sample, so needless to say I think my guys will be fighting for this bottle or I’ll have to buy another one so they can both have one! It’s definitely a scent I can see us purchasing in the future. I love how versatile it is in terms of age and how fun is that design? 10/10 would recommend.

This is the best smelling cologne i have purchased! This is a lavender, woody, spicy, and fruity scent. I can relate it to smelling like Y Ysl edp aswell as 1 million lucky and invictus platinum. The bottle is the coolest thing about it as well. This cologne would be perfect for all seasons as well as night and day, i would personally use this year round for any occasion. It is pricey, but for the scent and design i would mistake it for a expensiver cologne. The only CON/ ISSUE is it’s performance. Its not that strong so you would have to use 6-7 sprays and you have to use lotion to keep the scent longer. It’s longevity is mainly the issue though. Overall you should most definitely invest in this colonge! I would definitely give it a solid 9.5/10!

Bad Boy Cobalt takes what works and adds a unique twist to the genre of blue fragrances. It starts off with a lavender - plum blast. I've also heard people compare the opening with YSL Y EDP (replacing the apple with plum instead) and I can see what they mean. I like the bottle and the atomizer is great as well. The lightening bolt design holds true because this is energetic and unique. The sweet and aromatic elements then get shadowed by woods (and a light truffle note?). I love this as a concept but there's something a bit too bitter about this transformation that did not sit as well with me. It's not herbaceous either. In any case, the fragrance is fruity, floral, woodsy and earthy. Now the performance is moderate in my opinion. It'll have about half to an arms ... MoreBad Boy Cobalt takes what works and adds a unique twist to the genre of blue fragrances. It starts off with a lavender - plum blast.

In any case, the fragrance is fruity, floral, woodsy and earthy. Now the performance is moderate in my opinion. It'll have about half to an arms length of projection for the first hour or two, after which it'll sit fairly close to skin and become a nice air trail for up to 6 hours. I'll add this to my rotation as it's something new and different than what I have, but I'll have to give it some more time for that base to win me over.

I was gifted a Bad Boy Cobalt to review, and since I'm partial to anything with pink pepper, I was very excited to try it. I have a 19yo son who has been on the hunt for his "signature scent" so I figured he would be a perfect test subject! Spoiler... he loved it! PROS: ⚡️Smells AMAZING! Like warm and spicy comfort. ⚡️Really cool trigger application (although it did confuse my son for a brief moment) ⚡️The bottle (yes, I'm one of those people who displays perfume/cologne on the counter, so the bottle design is important to me, and I LOVE this one) CONS: ⚡️A little too strong. My said sprayed it directly on his chest the first time, and the scent was overwhelming. It's perfect, though, with a "walk through" application. Overall, we loved it!

Fresh unique and pleasant smell

Fairly versatile fragrance fit for spring/summer time.The vibe it gives off is cool, youthful and fresh smelling guy.The top notes are plum lavender and pink pepper, and the base notes are more woody and earthy.Lasts maybe 7 hours on my skin and projects well.As for the bottle: I quite like how unique it is, it’s definitely I nice change of pase from your basic square bottle.I quite like it for myself however I give it a 4/5 because even though I feel this scent turns heads with it’s plum notes, it’s mostly for warm or hot weather, it fits more to younger men and depending on skin chemistry it may not suit you. However I do quite like it and recommend it.All things considered: 4/5. Good for gifts or personal use

Horrendous Packaging - Amazing Fragrance

We received a sample of this with an order, and my husband is very picky about the kind of spray colognes that he wears; his standard is Lacoste Essential which has a overtone of Cassia and then has a spicer finish which sounds similar to this one but the experience could not be anything further from one another. I picked up a full size for fathers day and he's thrilled as it does smell quite the same as the sampler which is always a concern. It is light and rich at the same time, and does not have a suffocating smell despite the fact that you don't need much to be able to know what it is. I think this will be his go to for quite awhile and I couldn't be happier to smell it on him either as someone who likes more gourmand smells and not this type of scent usually... ... MoreWe received a sample of this with an order, and my husband is very picky about the kind of spray colognes that he wears; his standard is Lacoste Essential which has a overtone of Cassia and then has a spicer finish which sounds similar to this one but the experience could not be anything further from one another.

The only reason we are giving it a four star is because we really do not like the full size packaging. It's just not something that either of us want on display and it's a shame because it's one that every man should be proud to put on display!

Smells like a warm hug from my boyfriend!

I just want to start by saying I received this product for free from Influenster and the brand in exchange for my honest review. However, my opinion is genuinely my own (and my boyfriends) and we already had planned to try this cologne.. Anyway, It's like a burst of energy in a bottle, starting with this zesty combo of bergamot and black pepper that's just so invigorating. Imagine strolling through the city feeling like you own the place – that's the vibe.But here's the cool part: as it settles in, you get this cozy mix of sage and cedarwood, like finding your favorite spot in the city – comforting and familiar. And the base notes? Tonka bean and cocoa. Seriously, it's like a subtle sweetness that stays with you, like a secret ingredient.The bottle's slick too, ... MoreI just want to start by saying I received this product for free from Influenster and the brand in exchange for my honest review.

Your average blue fragrance

Carolina Herrera’s Bad Boy Cobalt is a your standard blue fragrance. It opens up with a bright, slightly powdery, and sweet scent. Notes of pink pepper and juniper dominate. Cobalt dries down in a linear fashion, while giving way to a marginally woodier scent. However, the “blueness” persists with the opening notes being dominant, albeit toned down. The fragrance’s projection is rather moderate. I don’t find it particularly shouty. It lasts about four hours on my skin. It doesn’t project as well as others is the same category. In regard to uniqueness, I would say it easily comparable to Y EDP, and the likes of. It isn’t anything revolutionary.Personally, it isn’t something I would recommend to someone looking for something special.

pretty solid for my first high-end cologne

When I received this product in the mail from influenster, I was pretty excited to get my first product from them! I was surprised to find out that it was a male cologne when I'm in fact a female. however, I wanted to give the product a solid chance so my husband and I both decided to try it. the fragrance is what I would describe as a warm and spicy scent. the notes are listed as pink pepper, floral, and geranium heart with a truffle base. It's also described as a smoky scent with oak wood and cedarwood. in my opinion, the most prevalent notes in the perfume are definitely the pepper and the Smokey wood. I usually steer clear of anything with a floral note as I find it too strong and fragrant. I don't find that the florals in this cologne are overly noticeable and ... MoreWhen I received this product in the mail from influenster, I was pretty excited to get my first product from them!

I usually steer clear of anything with a floral note as I find it too strong and fragrant. I don't find that the florals in this cologne are overly noticeable and would be likely comfortable to wear it during the day.I would describe this as an elegant yet. classy cologne that would be suitable for a multitude of different occasions. although this may seem obvious, it's worth pointing out that the cologne is quite strong , therefore, you must be very careful not to over apply. that being said, If you use two to three sprays for your entire body, the scent disperses around the body nicely and dissipates to a lighter yet lasting scent.finally, I also love the packaging of the product and find it unique and suitable to put on a vanity to display. the lightning bolt shape of the bottle is definitely a very cool look! the price point is very hefty, but on par with other similar options on the Sephora website. in conclusion, If you're comfortable with the hefty price tag, I don't think you would be disappointed with your purchase
