O Boticário Quasar Onix is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2013, created by Fabrice Pellegrin and Carmita Magalhães. Quasar Onix opens with Kumquat, Bergamot, Lime, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Cedar, Geranium, Freesia, and Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Sandalwood. O Boticário's Quasar Onix carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Pleasant but ultimately forgettable. It starts promising with a fresh burst but quickly fades to a generic woody base, leaving most wishing for more.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it a safe bet for casual and office wear, avoiding anything too overpowering. While it leans towards night according to some, its fresh opening prevents it from being exclusively a 'going out' scent.

About

Opens with a zesty, almost sparkling mix of kumquat, bergamot, and lime, given an aromatic edge by juniper and sage. This bright beginning quickly transitions into a heart of crisp apple, spicy pepper, and warm cedar, rounded out by subtle geranium. The dry down is a blend of soft musk, creamy sandalwood, and a hint of vanilla, with earthy vetiver and oakmoss providing a classic masculine foundation.
