About this deal

It’s got more in the way of citrus and vanilla. Top notes still include the pear, along with: bergamot, mandarin, and grapefruit. Floratta Red- This one from Boticario has lots of overlap with the Carolina Herrera perfume, particularly in the floral notes. But of course, the scent probably didn't make you think about what I just imagined as a "bad girl", uh, did it? So... uninhibited, sensual, a woman who is up for anything and likes to take risks, full of lust... um, at least according to the description of the fragrance, yes yes yes yes! So these were NOT my own words, maaaaan I'm not always to blame for everything when I write something reprehensible here *motz motz motz* :D What you don’t get? The almond and the coffee notes. So, it is a bit stripped down in that regard, when compared with our target.

Maxima by Avon– Jasmine and citrus and other fruity notes, lead this one. Maxima really does resemble being a mix between Good Girl and Olympea (listed below). Not as complex, as either, more sheer but with a good performance for the price. What amazes me is that with all the money that these perfumes cost, Kilian continues to refuse to hire a decent writer!Hello and good evening! And of course welcome to my latest comment. Today it's "Good Girl Gone Bad" by Kilian and I'm just trying to pull myself together not to fall into endless blasphemies about women because of the fragrance name, that everything (i.e. the fragrance name and so on) would be right and even the Good Girls sometimes can be pretty big shit.... uh, I meant pretty monsters! Extremely brutal monsters! Armani Code– Armani Code is similar to Good Girl, but definitely not exact. Good Girl is sweeter overall, while Code has a bit more citrus, earthiness, and spice to its composition. Coach Dreams Sunset– The flanker to the original Coach Dreams, Sunset has a pretty similar but not exact style like our target. Actually, to me this is closer to Good Girl Legere than the original.

The latter stages are where this perfume really overlaps with Good Girl. Jasmine and vanilla, while GG goes with jasmine and tonka bean. The Choo has more of a sparkling fruit accord up top and a resinous finish. The smell: Okay, the scent actually starts out nice. I smell powdery sweet jasmine, light fruit and most of all other floral notes, which are also sweet and I guess here the indicated lily of the valley. But the fragrance already has a slightly stuffy "white-flower" note, but we'll see how it goes on. I Want Choo–This Jimmy Choo has peach and mandarin notes up top, with the peach being the stronger of the two throughout the wear. It doesn’t have the almond, coffee, and cocoa notes and instead goes with vanilla and benzoin. Libre Intense by YSL– Vanilla and citrus are common overlaps between Libre Intense and Good Girl. Most of the similarities however, will come from the floral notes. Combined with a similar base and it produces a scent that is in the same ballpark. This and Olympea Intense are more heavily weighted toward the amber note, with vanilla, and a saltiness. Sweet, salty, warm, and floral.Miss Dream is fairly sweet, more sheer, and does have a lovely creamy vanilla/tonka bean combination. The tonka bean feels particularly strong. Durability and sillage I feel very weather dependent. If it is very cold rather weak, the fragrance needs some warmth, but can imagine that it could be too much of a good thing in high summer. It's a warm spring day, I'm sitting in a white flower garden with my white summer dress on and I bite into an overripe peach. Big minus is the price, I would probably not buy GGGB at the original price. I got hold of a great promotional price. If you can do without the beautiful bottle and buy the refill at the promotional price is the price justifiable... One nice thing about the Kilian collection is that it reminds me over and over again that there is no necessary connection between marketing and perfume qualities. The text in this case may as well have been composed by a monkey sitting at a typewriter and hammering out string after string of letters until a sentence fragment in the English language was finally produced.

Is it really close? Not really. But this can be a good alternative, sort of in the same grouping between Boss Alive and Good Girl. Expect more citrus and lavender in this one, it’s really the secondary layers during the perfumes development, that resembles the Carolina Herrera. In this post, I want to present an ongoing list of options for those who enjoy GG, but want to find an alternative. But still not with this scent, no no, with this scent you won't become Bad Girls, at least olfactorically, but just stink... :D

So I can't recommend the fragrance to others, so you can't try it either, because you would only waste one arm if you sprayed yourself full with it. I haven't tried so many Kilians yet, but there were more beautiful scents among the tested scents, much more beautiful Kilians... Nice performance and probably smells a bit better, in my opinion versus the Carolina Herrera. I Want Choo Review The floral notes are the same jasmine note, but Dreams Sunset goes with a magnolia also, which is actually the stronger of the two.

Fruity Almond- If you want a pure attempt at something similar to Good Girl, Fruity Almond from Dossier can fit the bill very well. Plus, it is very affordable, even among the other cheapies on this list. So, you’ll get a fruity vanilla start to I Want Choo. The floral notes in this one are also dominated by the jasmine, which splits some of the duties with a red lily note. Since Kilian is also on the fragrance, the disappointment is even greater. The only sin that can be found here is the exorbitant price for such a weak scent, which is not convincing either thematically or olfactorically...Most closely styled after or ‘inspired’ perfumes don’t 100% capture the same beat for beat development of the designer original. Though, the Dossier scents get it about as close as you can expect, and the end result smells great. But at least Kilian was right about one thing, and that was the expression: "Good Girl Gone Bad", at least there is something true about it, and I don't seem to be the only one who thinks so about the ladies, mu ha ha ha :DD By Kilian never ceases to amaze me with its bad and irrelevant copy. Here is the text on the folio accompanying my sample of GOOD GIRL GONE BAD: Properly dosed GGGB is for me a beautiful and special everyday companion with which I feel very comfortable. In addition, he also has something unique that one does not smell at every corner, white flowers should one but already like. You start things off with a sparkling pear note, creating a similar effect to the citrus found in GG. Tonka bean instead of pure vanilla, but it can come across as smelling the same.
