Good Girl Gone Bad – By Kilian
A Lush, Fruity-Floral Explosion with a Refined Edge
Part of the Narcotics collection, Good Girl Gone Bad is a signature feminine fragrance by Kilian that balances opulent florals, juicy sweetness, and elegant woods. Designed by perfumer Alberto Morillas, it leans heavily on its floral heart but softens the sweetness with well-chosen support notes so that it doesn’t become cloying. Sephora+3Kilian+3Basenotes+3
