Lidl X-Bolt is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012. X-Bolt opens with Lemon, Lime, Apple, and Tarragon, settles into a heart of Carnation, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Lidl's X-Bolt carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

For the price, X-Bolt is a remarkably convincing Boss Bottled alternative. Crisp apple, lemon, and vanilla deliver a clean, easygoing scent that works for nearly any day, with modest projection and a non-intrusive presence.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer

The crisp apple, citrus, and light vanilla make X-Bolt ideal for spring and autumn, with enough warmth and subtle sweetness for cooler days but not heavy enough for deep winter. Its freshness and soft projection also make it wearable on mild summer days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Perfect for the office and casual daily use due to its inoffensive, clean, and subtly sweet character plus moderate projection. Less suited to formal or sporty occasions where either more gravitas or higher freshness is required.

About

G Bellini X-Bolt opens with a lively burst of lemon and lime, swiftly merging into a bright, juicy apple core tinged with a thread of lavender and a whisper of pepper. The heart is softened by clean musk and faint floral touches, while the drydown wraps the wearer in gentle vanilla and understated woods, shaded by a hint of green balsam. The overall impression is fresh, lightly sweet, and unobtrusive, with a transparent warmth that wears close to the skin. Effortless, approachable, and endlessly versatile, X-Bolt is a budget-friendly staple for everyday wear.
