O Boticário Caviar is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017, created by Magali Lara. Caviar opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Clean Musk. O Boticário's Caviar carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly divisive scent, Caviar is either a unique, sophisticated oriental floral or a cloying, dated mess. You'll either love it for its bold character or recoil from its intensity.

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.

Its moderate performance and rich, complex floral profile make it a strong contender for dates and formal events, where it won't be overwhelming but definitely makes a statement. For the office, a light hand is needed, and it's certainly not for sport due to its lack of freshness.

About

Caviar opens with a sharp, almost green freshness from bergamot and mandarin, quickly giving way to an opulent, full-bodied floral heart. Rose, ylang-ylang, and jasmine intertwine, creating a rich bouquet that's both elegant and a touch vintage. The drydown settles into a warm, creamy embrace of amber, vanilla, and clean musk, adding depth and a comforting sweetness.
