Bad Boy Cobalt Elixir Carolina Herrera 2024

I can smell the pepper and sage very strongly in the opening. I don't find the scent in the opening particularly strong. I sprayed about 10 sprays and hardly noticed it. I've done this three times now and always had the same feeling: I can smell it a little at first, but then very quickly I can barely smell it. I don't know if it's just me.
The black pepper reminded me a lot of spicebomb extreme. However, the gentle sage makes it less sharp and "aggressive" than spicebomb.

I find that the fragrance becomes very subtle and subtle very quickly afterwards. I hardly smell it anymore. Maybe it's just me.

All in all, I find the fragrance somewhat unspectacular. Rather boring. Nothing extraordinary that excites me. The fragrance is basically okay to pleasant, but personally doesn't knock my socks off. I like others much better.
