O Boticário Crazy Choices is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2020. Crazy Choices opens with Grapefruit and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Guaiac Wood. O Boticário's Crazy Choices carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Dominant, earthy patchouli meets a sticky, sweet honey-like note that some adore and others just can't get on board with. Definitely not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but a unique power scent for those who get it.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • 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

Crazy Choices opens with a fleeting burst of bright tangerine and grapefruit before diving headfirst into an intense heart of damp, earthy patchouli, backed by rich guaiac wood. White florals like jasmine and orange blossom try to peek through, but it's the warm, almost syrupy vanilla and amber in the base that melds with the woodiness, creating a distinctive, honeyed depth. Musk adds a subtle, almost powdery finish.
