Mallrats is an aromatic fragrance created by Killian Wells. Created in collaboration with Universal and inspired by Kevin Smith’s cult classic Mallrats, it is an aromatic time capsule that recreates the unmistakable atmosphere of a 1990s American mall—a layered blend of food courts, indoor fountains, department-store perfume counters and endless afternoons spent wandering with nowhere particular to go. From their website: The composition opens with the bright, creamy fizz of an orange-cream drink, set against the chlorinated freshness of decorative fountains and a humid tropical mist. At the heart, a nostalgic cucumber-melon accord recalls the body sprays of the decade, mingling with the deliberately crowded scent of a department-store fragrance counter. The base brings together warm cinnamon buns, buttery soft pretzels, cool conditioned air and fresh leather, capturing the mall experience in all its strangely familiar detail. Mallrats features notes of leather, cucumber, pretzel, orange, cream, melon, chocolate, cinnamon and tropical notes. It is an extrait de parfum.
Xyrena is a compound of two terms - XY (the male and female chromosomes) and RENA (from the Latin word renascor which means "to be renewed or reborn). It also means “enchanter” in Old Greek. The company is certified 100% vegan and cruelty-free. They refer to themselves as olfactory rebels and welcome their customers to the "future of fragrance".
XYRENA MALLRATS REVIEWS
Xyrena: "Awesome fragrance. As a 90s kid this really did catch the mall vibe I was hoping for. Super in love. It's a very layered fragrance (in a good way) where you can actually smell most of the notes as they come in and out."
Instagram: "Mallrats is a time capsule of malls of the past. The remnants still stood when I was a kid. I smell cinnamon rolls, chlorine, fizzy orange and carpet."
