HTML

<div class="pop-div">
    <a href="#" data-toggle="popover" title="<strong>Notifiche</strong>" data-html="true" data-content="Notification 1<hr />Notification 2<hr />Notification 3 <hr />Notification 4">Notifications</a>
    </div>

JAVASCRIPT

$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover({placement: 'bottom'});

        //hide popover when click outside
        $('body').on('click', function (e) {
            $('[data-toggle="popover"]').each(function () {
                if ($(this).has(e.target).length === 0 && $('.popover').has(e.target).length === 0) {
                    $(this).popover('hide');
                }
            });
        });

CSS

.pop-div .popover-content {
height: 50px;
overflow-y: scroll;

}

I have this popover in the code above. I'm trying to show a scroll bar on the left of the popover content, but this code doesn't work. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

This is because your CSS declaration is wrong. You should separate the selectors with ma , :

.pop-div, .popover-content {

not

.pop-div .popover-content {

in this case .pop-div is unnessecary, you only need

.popover-content {
   height: 50px;
   overflow-y: scroll;
}
