Glyph origin
Characters in the same phonetic series (告) (Zhengzhang, 2003)
Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *kʰuːɡ) : semantic 酉 (“alcoholic drink vessel”) + phonetic 告 (OC *kuːɡs, *kuːɡ).
Etymology
Original meaning was “cruel”. The sense “cool” is a phono-semantic matching of English cool.

Usage notes
Whilst English "cool" may be used in a wide variety of contexts, 酷 (and, by extension, 酷斃／酷毙 (kùbì)) is usually only used to describe something fashionable or extraordinary.
