Our verdict on Malia: Acquired

Malia is a divisive, quirky scent - some find it an intoxicating, witchy brew, others a 'scrubber' of medicinal, burnt notes. It's unique, bold, and definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit to this one.

About

Opens with a potent, almost bracing herbal hit of marjoram and pink pepper, quickly joined by tart, juicy fruits and mandarin. The heart introduces the intoxicating apricot-like nuance of osmanthus, softened by rose and a spicy black pepper kick, with a hint of tobacco blossom adding depth. The base grounds it all with earthy patchouli, vetiver, and oakmoss, wrapped in a warm, resinous benzoin and musk.
