Mexx XX Very Wild is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. XX Very Wild opens with Bergamot, Orange, Mandarin, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Marshmallow, Rose, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Heliotrope, and Vanilla. Mexx's XX Very Wild carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper Marmite scent, dividing the crowd with its sweet, fruity assault. Some find it uniquely charming, others a total scrubber. It's certainly got character, but 'wild' might be a stretch - think more playful candy shop than untamed jungle.

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Limonene from Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a juicy explosion of blackcurrant, raspberry, and bright citrus that immediately grabs your attention. As it settles, a surprisingly creamy marshmallow note emerges, softened by delicate rose and exotic frangipani. The base warms up with smooth vanilla, a touch of powdery heliotrope, and cosy amber and sandalwood, creating a sweet, comforting dry-down that lingers.
