Malbec X

by Christophe Raynaud

O Boticário Malbec X is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Christophe Raynaud. Malbec X opens with Violet Leaf, Grapefruit, Mandarin, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Synthetic, Cardamom, and Benzoin, and dries down to a base of Leather, Suede, Patchouli, and Amber. O Boticário's Malbec X carries an Acquired verdict, a leather-led wear.

This is a seriously seductive, amber-leather bomb that smells way more expensive than it is. While some find the opening a bit synthetic or rubbery, most agree it's a confident, virile scent perfect for making an impression.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Malbec X is far too dominant for an office setting and its strong, warm character doesn't suit sport. Its bold leather and amber make it ideal for dates and evening formal events, especially in cooler weather, where its substantial sillage and longevity can truly shine.

About

Opens with a fleeting flash of bright citrus and violet leaf, quickly ushering in a warm, spicy heart of cardamom and benzoin. The drydown unveils a rich, smooth tapestry of leather and suede, deepened by earthy patchouli and a potent amber that lingers with a subtle, resinous sweetness. It's a heady, deep scent with a distinct masculine edge.
