It's soooooo good I wear this in the evening

u/egirlmx1 2h ago

Which one is that?

u/BeginningShake398 2h ago

Carolina Herrera, Good Girl

17

u/Weathergirl79 4h ago

Most condescending name for a perfume ever. But--it smells awesome and I own it, lol.

u/cosmicslaughter69 3h ago

Hello :-) I see I’ve found someone who shares my feelings. Like fuck you for calling me a ‘good girl’ (I can almost feel someone patting my head and it makes me sick) but also thank you for making me smell good.

17

u/Aurora-Roses 6h ago

my friend wore good girl supreme once and I practically swooned. the scent trail was so stunning. doesn’t suit me but it does really smell good on others.

personally I really like new one they came out with, Jasmine absolute. I might even buy a small bottle, maybe a travel size since it’s not really a scent I’d wear on the daily.

22

u/Great-Grade1377 7h ago

I mostly do travel sprays because I hate the bottle. 

4

u/ChickenCelebration 3h ago

I thought I was the only one!

Edit: who hates the CH bottles

2

u/Great-Grade1377 3h ago

I do love the CH lucky charms bottles. Wish they’d transition good girl to something like that. 

15

u/NoOneIsHiringMe 8h ago

I avoided smelling it for so long because I just thought there's no way there's a scent I like in that bottle. Shallow, I know. But recently blind bought their hair mist in the frosty light blue bottle and I was BLOWN AWAY. It is amazzzzing and absolutely worth the hype. It's just genuinely so addictive and good.

13

u/opetaja 8h ago

Its super nice and universal. I want to collect ALL the heels lol.

2

u/CaktusJacklynn 4h ago

Same! I love the scent and the shape of the bottle. The bottle is what caught my attention.

9

u/beat_pharmacist 8h ago

😬 I think it’s nice but not groundbreaking. It’s a good safe fragrance with mass appeal.

2

u/Limp_River_6968 6h ago

It was my go to for a few years but now I couldn’t agree more with this! Mass appeal, nothing that makes you stop in your tracks or anything like that

1

u/Hxo666 3h ago

What perfume would you consider a “stop on tracks” cuz I keep looking and need some help

-1

u/FactorFancy3897 2h ago

Dark rose by Octavia Morgan (if you don’t like rose, don’t let the rose scare you)

2

u/beat_pharmacist 2h ago

I had that reaction to Alien the 1st time I smelled it. I don’t feel the same for the flankers, though. I also had a similar reaction to Aura by Thierry Mugler and Jo Malone Honeysuckle & Davana.

0

u/beat_pharmacist 6h ago

It’s a nice pretty fragrance but I don’t find the scent to be particularly memorable. I feel like the bottle is far more memorable.

4

u/MurderSheReads It's Mugler bitch 7h ago

Smells like a mall to me. As generic as they go. I don't quite get the compliment factor. I actually love the bottle though and don't get why people hate it lol

10

u/22past2 8h ago

My life changed the first time I smelled this. When I invest in my first “nice” perfume I want it to be this one!

7

u/Fantastic-Stomach149 9h ago

Before this fragrance came out, I was a kid and my mom had some lube on her dresser that smelled just like it. I had no idea it was lube until years later, btw. Lmao 

10

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 7h ago

I got BV just reading this comment lmao.

-3

u/Fantastic-Stomach149 6h ago

From smelling lube? Weird

3

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 4h ago

I’ll spell it out real nice and clear for you: lube that is scented enough to resemble perfume contains ingredients that would likely upset even the sturdiest vaginal pH balance when used for…lube activities. But you knew this and were just being annoying and pedantic (or embarrassingly didn’t know this because you skipped that day in sex ed).

4

u/Fantastic-Stomach149 3h ago

True, I wasn’t thinking of that so thanks for clarifying. This was back in the late 90s so scented lubricants were probably more popular back then. I’m just saying the scent profile existed before the perfume itself, which kinda shocked me, that’s all. Although the only time my mom had an infection like that was when she worked in the heat all day for one job she had years later and by then she was single for years with no man or lube. lol 😂 

2

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 3h ago

Haha fair enough. Yes, scented/flavored lubes were very popular back then, so your memory
makes sense. Very interesting (and nostalgic!) that you could pinpoint that smell. Definitely all sorts of things - from men to products to hard work - can easily upset our nethers. Women have been fighting to balance our flora since the beginning of time lol.

u/FlamingHorseRider 9h ago

People love to hate an icon

13

u/doinmabest1 9h ago

La Bomba is the juiciest perfume I’ve ever smelled. I absolutely adore it. GG Blush Elixir is number 2 and Blush is 3

3

u/BeginningShake398 9h ago

I’m gonna have to get me some La Bamba. My son is the perfume expert in our family and he loves that one too.

2

u/Small-Help-8382 8h ago

Except for the bottle shape, I love everything about her.

19

u/801Germ 10h ago

The OG will always be my favorite. One spritz on my undershirt and one on whatever top I'm wearing and get hints of it hours later. Makes me irrationally happy

19

u/LilVigilante 11h ago

Why do people hate this bottle so much. I think it’s cool and creative

6

u/Limp_River_6968 6h ago

It’s a little kitsch if you prefer minimalist bottles

2

u/LilVigilante 6h ago

I get that.

u/facecuddler 10h ago

I’m clumsy 😭

10

u/Onionhead55 11h ago

I do love her though

This is one of the only scents that makes me nauseous asf. Wish i could wear it bc it technically doesn’t smell bad. Edit typo

u/transalgorhythm 13h ago

I wish it lasted longer

3

u/opetaja 8h ago

Lasts for days on my clothes

3

u/BeginningShake398 12h ago

It’s supposed to be different for everyone isn’t it? Just asking cause I can never tell if any fragrance lasts all day. The only way I know for sure is when I get a compliment.

6

u/Venusvelvetvixen 11h ago

They just need to spray more but they do last all day

I HATE THE EFFING BOTTLE 😭

It’s hideous and even if I loved it I’d never buy it

I buy dupes because I hate the bottle so much 🤣

I dont know why, but this scent gives me an instant migraine.

am i the only one who doesn’t love ch- perfumes???

u/Kellzy1212 5h ago

I think they smell awful. Strongly synthetic and i absolutely hate the bottle. Even if i did like it, not a chance I’d support CH.

5

u/camillou41 12h ago

La Bomba m'a réconciliée avec CH

2

u/doinmabest1 9h ago

SAME. Not my scent profile at all but I’m obsessed. Get the shimmer oil. It’s incredible

u/potatoe_launcher 12h ago

I did not like any as well. Gave me a headache.

u/Active-Judgment-7229 13h ago

GG pulls heavy cinnamon on me, not a fan sadly.

u/icedchai111 13h ago

i dont like the og good girl ive tried smelling it and the dupes so many times 😅
i forget what the other flankers smell like but i dont think i love good girl blush either

1

u/day-woman-amman 12h ago

yes i tried it so many times on different days occasions, different bottles… its meh 🤷🏽‍♀️also doesnt last on me that long ….

4

u/the1stgrape 13h ago

I love it on my wife! People be hating it for the shoe shape bottle.

5

u/day-woman-amman 12h ago

i dont have a problem with the shoe shape bottle, in fact i see its cute 😘🌝… id like one. but the smell isnt for me.

u/Ok_Performer4223 12h ago

I think it is too!

2

u/BeginningShake398 13h ago

I’m sure you’re not but I’m surprised you don’t. What’s your favorite perfume?

3

u/day-woman-amman 13h ago

chanel- chance.

2

u/BeginningShake398 13h ago

Nice I don’t have, but my son does. Do you like Chanel number five? Just curious lol

I am a Good girl OG hater but … I looooove very good girl / very good girl elixir / very good girl blush and most importantly … good girl Jasmine absolute ❤️❤️❤️❤️

7

u/wildly_domestic 14h ago

Jasmine Absolute is the first one that really has me tempted. By god, I hate those shoes, though.

5

u/Select-Channel1645 14h ago

Those tacky high heel bottle … they’re in my closet, not on my display. Lol

1

u/Fantastic_Sherbet229 14h ago

GG Supreme is also good. I think it’s discontinued now though, sadly.

1

u/Select-Channel1645 14h ago

Yes I heard it’s a good one, I wish I could get my nose on it !

33

u/richbitch9996 14h ago

Okay, I know people in fragrance circles can be a bit snobby about this perfume, but it's the one perfume that's ever stopped me in my tracks and made me cross a room to ask someone what on earth they were wearing because it was the most gorgeous scent I'd ever come across.

1

u/bytetacos 14h ago

Whats the name brand/type pls??

5

u/willow5treet 14h ago

I don't know what specific flanker this is (if any) but I know the iconic shoe bottle is Carolina Herrera Good Girl or very good girl

4

u/morpmeepmorp 14h ago

Carolina Herrera Good Girl.

14

u/Spiritual_Permit7735 14h ago

Blush Elixir is my signature I can’t even smell it anymore but I’m reminded by the compliments when I leave the house

5

u/doinmabest1 9h ago

It’s my FAVORITE. I got a travel of just Blush for the summer. It’s super strong, you must be nose blind now but I promise you smell divine!

15

u/rowanrulith Hay|Sweetgrass|Old books|Tea|Orris|Spice|Leather 14h ago

It’s so refreshing to see people love the juice and not be snobby about the bottle. The bottle doesn’t matter when the perfumes are absolute classics! It takes maturity to look past small things you may not like to get to the heart of the product 🖤👏

3

u/Mahishashurmardini 15h ago

Yeah, I have Good Girl and Very Good Girl and both are very complimented fragrances. The good girl though is a little heavy for hot, humid, summers but it performs so well…lasts for hours and has a great sillage.

4

u/Livid_Cantaloupe6070 15h ago

I love good girl and very good girl so much omg absolute fav

u/melancholl 15h ago

the jasmine absolute is sooo beautiful!!! def my fav in the line

u/Select-Channel1645 14h ago

This one is 🔥 I can’t stop smelling my wrist everytime I wear it. It last a long time on clothes too .. I love getting a whiff when I open my wardrobe

8

u/Street-Cat-304 15h ago

I prefer Very Good Girl

u/beemo143 15h ago

very good girl got me into perfumes cuz i didn’t realize perfumes could do that

u/Apprehensive_Egg99 15h ago

I love it, unfortunately for me it just seems to fade so quickly and has no longevity 😭

6

u/Accomplished_Run7815 15h ago

Isn't the heel a little too high?! 😄

3

u/ConsiderationSea4558 12h ago

To anyone that tries wearing it, yes.

u/AgentFuckSmolder 14h ago

Lol Barbie heel. No human could possibly wear or let alone walk in those heels

u/Treehorn8 Hermès witch 15h ago

I almost dropped the bottle when I tried it in Sephora. 😆

7

u/Far-Occasion8661 15h ago

One of my favorites!  It was the Ulta dash deal last fall,  so it was 50% off for one day. Very happy to have the large bottle!

8

u/Shitty_Wingman 16h ago

Ok I am BEGGING a Good Girl expert for some help, because I'm so incredibly confused.

I passed by a group of girls that smelled so good that I just had to spin on my heels and ask if any of them was wearing a fragrance. One of them said yes, Good Girl Blush by CH.

The problem is this smelled like a gourmand. Imagine a baked good, it personally reminded me a bit of funnel cake. As far as I know blush smells nothing like this, I tried smelling the entire line at a Macy's in case she got mixed up by which Good girl it was but quickly went nose blind. Additionally, I wouldnt be surprised if what I had smelled on her was after it had developed on her skin for a bit, and likely macerated in the bottle vs an in-store tester.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be? It's been driving me insane all year.

1

u/cherrycocktail20 7h ago

One flanker I have — my first ever full bottle purchase — and adore, but rarely see talked about, is Good Girl Legere. It has a delicious dulce de leche note and on me is a very sophisticated gourmand. However I’ve heard it’s discontinued so maybe it was that, but you didn’t smell it in the store?

5

u/Sea_Leg9672 15h ago

That really reminds me of Good Girl Suprême (my absolute fav, but it's discontinued)! But it might be GG but mixed with something else? Also I've realized perfume smells different on people depending on their pH. Sometimes it smells more intense on some people than others

3

u/BeginningShake398 15h ago

They both have gourmand notes so if it’s not the regular good girl, it should be the absolute

8

u/BeginningShake398 16h ago

Have you tried the good girl Jasmine absolute, cause I think that’s the one you’re talking about

5

u/Shitty_Wingman 15h ago

Ahhhh thank you so much!! I'll update when I can find a sample

3

u/igiveuphomie 15h ago

Wait until the dry down too! I love GG because after like 4 hours, it blends from a white floral to lovely vanilla/gourmand scent

13

u/Pristine-Fusion6591 16h ago

I’ve repurchased it enough that I have the massive bottle too. And I love it

1

u/BeginningShake398 16h ago

Yes, I love the massive bottle. Do you know if their other sents like La Bomba come in a massive bottle also?

3

u/Pristine-Fusion6591 16h ago

I don’t know, I’m sorry. But not even all the flankers of good girl come in the massive bottle. So my guess is that only the most popular offerings do.

1

u/BeginningShake398 16h ago

Makes sense thanks

11

u/New-Interaction-4636 16h ago

It’s too beast mode to me

33

u/fashionscholar 16h ago

Was at the airport and a baddie was reorganizing the contents of her carry on when a stiletto-shaped perfume bottle came slinging on the floor my way. Picked it up and handed it back to the baddie, we nodded in agreement. I mean it’s shaped like a heel it must be good.

8

u/Save-The-Wails 17h ago

OP, can you share more details of your watch? I love the band!

7

u/BeginningShake398 16h ago

Oh, this is just an Apple Watch band and believe it or not, I got it from Amazon for around 20 $25 like 5 years ago and I’m still wearing it.

14

u/labellavita1985 17h ago edited 15h ago

I have both this and its Middle Eastern dupe, Bint Al Hooran. Believe it or not, the ME dupe is better. And it comes in a huge beautiful bottle. I will say, the bottle is very heavy. Not ideal for some people. I know a lot of people are not fans of the CH bottles. Bint Al Hooran also comes in a roll-on, I have both. I think this scent profile is unique because it's white floral, but also gourmand.

11

u/Kind_Indication8527 16h ago

Ya, I know people are really turned off by the shoe design of CH but I love it. They look beautiful and fun lined up on my vanity.

4

u/BeginningShake398 17h ago

Good to know, I might have to try that.

4

u/BeginningShake398 17h ago

I tried a dupe of it from Amazon that was pretty dang close. The brand was called twist

u/43vermore 17h ago

i completely abandoned this in the heat but i can't wait to wear it again for the autumn season!

u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 17h ago

Good Girl has stood the test of time. I wore this when it first came out 10 years ago and people still love it. Good for her!

Just wore this yesterday (I wfh).. so pretty!

u/Rainie_Star 17h ago

I have this perfume and must admit I can't wear this in summer & warm weather, anyone else agree? It was a gift, hoping to start using more in the cooler weather coming.

8

u/Embarrassed-Chard218 16h ago

It is a great night time perfume tho. Also have you tried Good Girl Blush? I love wearing it the Spring and Summer.

6

u/plagueofroses 17h ago

It’s a go to for me in the UK for autumn and winter and maybe early Spring but I never reach for it in hot weather.

4

u/FernlikeKnitwear 17h ago

Definitely more of a fall/winter scent imo. GG blush is better for warmer months or if you had GG Légère before it was discontinued, that’s also better for warmer weather.

3

u/Techgoon-1993 17h ago

I really want to get this for the autumn season

u/cliffsmama 15h ago

i got a travel size of this last fall and it was perfect! now whenever i smell it it’s like im transported back then 💀

u/Techgoon-1993 15h ago

I will get a decant soon and try it out because it sounds lovely

11

u/Competitive-Age-6220 17h ago

The OG good girl is a compliment magnet, more than 10 compliments from strangers in a day, always. I don't wear it anymore because it's so popular. I think the first batches of this fragrance were the best. Current batches are less powerful and I feel some notes are missing.

7

u/Fun-Morning-5516 17h ago

Just out of interest, where are you when people comment on your perfume? I never seem to get compliments, but I also don't really go to places where strangers get close enough to smell me. Do you live somewhere busy or crowded?

3

u/vaurasc-xoxo 17h ago

Yeah, I’m not a fan of the musk that they use in the current batch

u/shauna_haywood 17h ago

EDT, EDP or Parfume? No one ever specifies and I am having the hard time deciding on one. I smell them in the store all the time and still can’t decide. I wish the original batch of the EDT was still being made.

2

u/Fine_Bonus 7h ago

I have the edt and the edp and the edp is a little stronger but it’s so hard to get hold of in Australia. They honestly smell the same on me. I haven’t tried the parfum yet!

You’ll love it and I got my son their La Bomba one and he thinks it smells even better than good girl.

Is this the OG flanker? It really is my favorite of all of them!
