Chopard Rose Malaki by Chopard is a unisex Eau de Parfum that invites you into a sensual, smoky garden where sweetness meets depth. Released in 2014, this fragrance captivates with a salty-syrupy yet earthy opening—saffron and cardamom—that sparks curiosity and sets the stage for a romantic, adventurous heart. At its core, rose absolute and rose petals mingle with a hint of leather, delivering a lush, confident bouquet. Vanilla and patchouli then emerge to soften and warm the composition, leaving a lasting, inviting trail on the skin.

- Unique scent journey: it opens with an unexpected saffron-note pairing, then reveals a quintessentially romantic rose that’s softened by leather and warmth—creating a memorable, multidimensional aura.
- Balanced unisex appeal: while marketed as a fragrance that women can own with confidence, its smoky-rose-warmth transcends gender, suitable for anyone who loves a bold, sophisticated scent.

Ideal moments and who should wear it
Perfect for elegant evenings, date nights, and cool-weather occasions, Rose Malaki fits fans of rich florals fused with tactile warmth. It’s especially appealing to those who appreciate a modern rose that isn’t purely airy or sweet—think a perfume that pairs well with a sleek evening outfit, a smoky candle, or a leather jacket after sunset. If you enjoy notes like rose, vanilla, and patchouli with a hint of spice and leather, this is a fragrance that will feel both familiar and intriguingly new.
How to wear and layering tips
For best effect, apply Rose Malaki to pulse points where the skin radiates heat—wrists, the inner elbows, and the nape of the neck. A light spritz behind the ears or at the base of the throat creates a centerpiece aroma that unfolds as it warms. If you want more depth for evening wear, consider layering with a subtle vanilla or soft amber lotion to amplify the warm base notes without masking the rose. A single 2.7 oz bottle provides ample runway for special occasions and everyday confidence alike.
Size, packaging, and care
Presented in a generous 2.7 oz bottle, Rose Malaki offers a balanced value for those seeking a signature scent that travels well from day to night. To preserve its allure, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the cap firmly in place between uses to protect the fragrance’s nuanced balance of saffron, rose, leather, vanilla, and patchouli.
