Beneath it, a heart of slick leather and vinyl wraps the scent in the unmistakable feel of a femme fatale who plays dirty. As it settles, the fragrance turns deeper and more addictive: cigarette smoke, Damballa woods, animalic musk, and warm amber leave a trail that's intimate, wicked, and impossible to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eBad Gal is allegedly the perfect fragrance for a romantic crime spree — but legal has asked us not to confirm or deny.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 in 100 Chance of \u003cem\u003eEat Your Heart Out Pink\u003c\/em\u003e Chase Bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eXyrena Chase Bottles are ultra-rare, limited-edition variants randomly seeded into select production runs.
