Carolina Herrera has launched Good Girl, a new oriental fragrance for women. The fragrance was inspired by the duality of women; the tag line: it's so good to be bad.
A vertiginous explosion of Tuberose Tonka; an innovative olfactory creation, where the floral brightness of tuberose and jasmine contrast with the intense and mysterious sensuality of roasted Tonka beans. Reveal your good side through the luminous facet of tuberose and the best quality Sambac Jasmine. Dare your bad side through addictive notes of roasted Tonka beans and Cocoa. It’s so good to be bad!
Carolina Herrera Good Girl is available in 50 and 80 ml Eau de Parfum.

What is going on with that bottle? Is that the bottle? I can’t tell if it’s a glass shoe next to the bottle or if the shoe is the bottle. If not, why does the other part just look like a cigarette box?
The shoe is the bottle — a navy stiletto pump. If you look closely you can see the line of the cap.
Yeah, it’s a sprayer: you can see the nozzle and the pushbutton if you look closely. Seems to me the heel might get in the way a bit, but no lie: I think that’s a terrific bottle.
Oh you’re right…not a cap really.
My thought on the bottle is, how are you supposed to use that? It looks awkward to actually use.
To wear when your boyfriend wears Bad, the new Diesel. And you can be bad together.
Ha, exactly!
Herrera’s collections have excelled at lightness, feminity and the illusion of delicate floating. The look of this bottle seems completely out of character. It seems more fitting for a celebrity fragrance: Lisa Vander Pump “Pump” or Nicki Minaj “Zeppies”. .
I’m sorry, that bottle is uuuggghhh! It looks like something that the Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz would have! And the notes sound like it is describing her to a tee. Lol!
I think the bottle is hideous too. I know funky shaped bottles is nothing new but I can’t help but think this is due to MJ Decadence doing well.
I’m personally cracking up at “best quality Sambac Jasmine.” Sure, Jan.
I learned a new work today! “Vertiginous”- can’t wait to work that one into conversations!
A “vertiginous explosion” sounds like something unfortunate happened after the wrong person rode on a roller coaster. Ugh!
I agree that the bottle is terrible, but I’m finding myself increasingly annoyed by this pervasive (at least in fragrance copy) idea that, to be a woman, one needs to be this good girl with a bad side. Like a stripper with a heart of gold or a sexy librarian or something.
“The duality of women.” That kind of language doesn’t appeal to me.
I agree now you mention it, it’s getting boringly repetitive. Still, I suppose it’s in the nature of advertising to reduce complexity to simplicity. It tries to creates needs, and images of ourselves, that we didn’t know we had.
At least there does not seem to be any writhing involved with this one. Or maybe that will come when the video ad is released … 🙁
I Love It! LOVE IT! The Bottle is actually quite Beautiful, and a Little Kinky and Twisted and Kitschy and Campy and DELICIOUS! CH is such a perceived…. AHEM… “UPTIGHT” Uptown brand that this breathes a little bit of life and silliness and sexiness and fun into the brand! I think it’s #SMASHING! And as a Lover of All things Tuberose, Sambac, Cocoa and Tonka… I CANNOT WAIT to smell it!
I hate high heels and everything they symbolise – mainly the hobbling of half of humanity…
But I LOVE that bottle – at least in the pic! It’s that fluid molten line and the surreal hight of the stiletto 😀
Not sure about the bottle but .. Watch out for the flanker ‘ Bad Girl ‘ .. Lol which will probably be a red stiletto .
That bottle looks so much like the kinky Louboutin ballet heels, I’m surprised they can use it.

I don’t think these are made for walking. 😉
Dear Ms. Herrera;
With absolute respect, I saw an advertisement for “Good Girl” in the Bogota airport and I am disappointed. You purport to support women with your fashion and fragrances that allow women to feel feminine. However, the bottle for “Good Girl” is shaped like a stilleto heel that would be impossible to walk in and your slogan hangs above the “good girl” in the picture…kneeling between a man’s knees. I feel this simply reinforces women’s role as less than men, as subservient, and as sex objects. It is bad emough living in Colombia amongst all the machisimo where women are afraid to go out at night alone. I say, keep the fragrance, and show a woman putting it on after a good workout…or after accomplishing scientific greatness, or winning a Nobel Prize. This would instead make the name “good girl” one of strength, independence, and the true power of women. Simply a suggestion. Thank you for your consideration. -Tristen Bonacci
