The new eau de parfum Chopard

Malaki began by paying tribute to frankincense, oud, and cedarwood with the iconic Black Incense Malaki, Oud Malaki, and Cedar Malaki. Now, for 2024, the collection explores the infinite opulence of leather. The New Eau de Parfum Leather Malaki delves into the heart of leather, this outstanding raw material much coveted by high perfumery connoisseurs. Rugged yet luminous, leather has been refined in such a way that it echoes natural, untamed landscapes to reveal its most wonderful contrasts.

AN IMMERSION OF LEATHER
Brilliant sunshine spills into the fine grooves of a swatch of leather. An icy wind blows through the high tree canopy before swirling down over the dark warmth of the soil. Stretching out in all its grandeur, nature offers up its scent. This new powerful men fragrance is caught between light and darkness, both mineral and smoky; potent and grandiose.

Just like each creation, Leather Malaki exalts the majesty of a particular ingredient. Leather, envisioned in all it’s majesty.

Created for modern wayfarers who are irresistibly drawn to wide-open spaces, dizzying heights, and unreachable destinations, Leather Malaki is an exhilarating, boundless breath of life.

A FRAGRANCE AND ITS RAW MATERIAL
To interprete this vision, Maison Chopard called upon the talents of Perfumer Dora Baghriche. Her creation has been inspired by the force of nature and the euphoria of wide-open spaces. She has crafted the scent by delving into leather’s varying textures of grainy and smooth.

Her olfactory exploration has led her down overlapping paths of shadow and radiance; strength and softness, reflecting the infinite richness of her sculpting material.

With Leather Malaki, she has created an elegant Aromatic Woody to join the collection with its potent leathery accents. In this olfactory voyage, the fiery impulse of leather melds with a burst of freshness.

The fragrance opens with a biting note of Bergamot Essence and Black Pepper, evoking an intensely aromatic breeze sweeping across the land. Then comes the Woody, Spicy edge of Alaskan Cedar essence to structure and awaken the mineral-leathery accord at the composition’s heart. This accord unveils a unique, profound olfactory duality whereby warm, smoky notes contrast with a compelling minerality. Lastly, Cistus absolute and Amber supply the composition with an enveloping heat.

Like a swatch of exceptionally fine leather, Leather Malaki evolves as a chiaroscuro tableau between fire and ice.

“Leather Malaki is for the modern explorer, who ventures into a flood of contrasts between hot and cold; light and darkness; height and depth; modernity and authenticity.”

A MASCULINE BOTTLE IN DARK SHADES OF BROWN
The bottle design inspiration comes from a twilight sun ablaze with coppery glints .

The strikingly seductive bottle of the Malaki collection holds a golden-toned brown elixir. Its copper-colored cap is a true feat of meticulous design with its faceted, tiered curves inspired by Chopard watch bracelets.

Reflecting the Chopard jewelry tradition, the Leather Malaki bottle is a precious object in gold and brown that brims with the spirit of adventure.
