The same deconstructed, garden-fresh Strawberry that makes the EDP so unexpectedly sophisticated - now in a concentrated oil format built for wearing up close. Where the EDP spray projects the green brightness of Mara Strawberry and Pink Pepper outward with immediacy, the Perfume Oil draws those same Notes inward, warming them against the skin into something more intimate and enveloping. The Jasmine, Woodland Greens, Cedarwood, and Oakmoss of the heart and base develop slowly and richly throughout the day - making the oil the format that best reveals just how much complexity (MALIN+GOETZ) packed into a fragrance most people assume will be simple.
Applied via precision steel rollerball, it's the Strawberry experience distilled to its most personal.
Who's It For
The Strawberry convert who wants it on them constantly - in a bag, a pocket, a desk drawer. It's also the ideal first encounter with the scent: the oil format lets the fragrance evolve fully on skin before committing to the full EDP, and with a scent this surprising, trying before buying is always a good idea.
Key Benefits
-
The oil format reveals the complexity. Strawberry's Jasmine Lactone Captive, Oakmoss, and Orris Root Base Notes develop more slowly and fully in oil form - the dry-down is where this fragrance truly earns its sophistication, and the oil gives it the time to get there.
-
Green and realistic, not sweet or synthetic. The Mara Strawberry accord in oil form stays true to its garden-fresh character - slightly tart, slightly green, and unmistakably real rather than confected.
-
Outstanding skin-close longevity. The oil base locks the fragrance to skin and extends its presence well beyond what a spray delivers, making it a particularly good choice for anyone who finds the EDP fades too quickly on their skin.
-
Travel-ready and TSA-friendly. At 7ml in a compact glass vial with steel rollerball, it goes anywhere - no restrictions, no bulk, no compromise on the scent experience.
-
Versatile layering partner. Apply the oil as a skin-close base and layer the EDP spray over it for a richer, longer-lasting version of the full Strawberry experience.
Scent Profile

Top Notes: Sparkling Bergamot, Mara Strawberry, Pink Pepper

Middle Notes: Jasmine Petals, Jasmine Lactone Captive, Woodland Greens
-
Base Notes: Cedarwood, Oakmoss, Captive Musks, Orris Root
In oil format, the opening is quieter and more considered than the EDP spray - Sparkling Bergamot and Mara Strawberry warm onto skin gradually, their brightness arriving softly rather than all at once. Pink Pepper still delivers its essential dry heat, but it feels more integrated here, less of a contrast and more of a complement to the Strawberry accord beneath it.
The Middle Notes are where the oil format genuinely distinguishes itself: Jasmine Lactone Captive - the creamy, milky aroma molecule that adds warmth to the Jasmine Petals - develops beautifully over oil, becoming richer and more present than it does in the spray. Woodland Greens keep the heart grounded and fresh.
The Base Notes settle in with quiet authority: Cedarwood adds dry warmth, Oakmoss contributes its earthy, slightly damp complexity, Captive Musks bring skin-close persistence, and Orris Root - with its powdery, subtly woody elegance - ties everything together into a dry-down that is far more sophisticated than the name Strawberry would ever lead you to expect.
Key Ingredients
-
Mara Strawberry - A specific Italian strawberry varietal with a deep, tart, naturally green character. In oil form, its realistic quality is especially evident - this is strawberry as a botanical ingredient, not a flavouring.
-
Pink Pepper - The spiced Top Note that keeps the fruit from reading as sweet, adding a dry heat that gives the fragrance its distinctive edge and complexity.
-
Jasmine Lactone Captive - A synthetic aroma molecule that amplifies the creamy, milky facets of jasmine. In the oil format, this ingredient has particular room to develop, adding warmth and richness to the Middle Notes.
-
Woodland Greens - A composite green accord in the Middle Notes that anchors the fragrance in something earthy and realistic, preventing the heart from drifting too sweet or too floral.
-
Oakmoss - A classic fine fragrance Base Note with an earthy, mossy character that gives the dry-down its depth and contributes significantly to the oil's longevity on skin.
-
Orris Root (Iris pallida) - Distilled from iris rhizomes, Orris Root brings a powdery, woody elegance to the Base Notes that softens the earthier elements and gives the dry-down its refined, lingering quality.
-
Captive Musks - Proprietary musk blends that provide skin-close warmth and persistence in the Base Notes, ensuring the fragrance stays present and personal throughout the day.
How To Use
Roll directly onto pulse points - wrists, neck, behind the ears, and inside the elbows. The steel rollerball allows precise, targeted application. Avoid contact with clothing and porous materials. Reapply throughout the day as desired. For a more projected, fuller scent experience, layer with Strawberry EDP: apply the oil to pulse points first and allow it to settle into the skin, then follow with a light EDP spray for added presence over the concentrated oil base.
Why MASC Recommends This
Strawberry Perfume Oil is the entry point that converts the sceptics - the customers who assume a strawberry fragrance can't possibly be worth their time. The oil format is perfectly suited to a scent built around nuance and gradual development, and the Mara Strawberry and Oakmoss dry-down is genuinely one of the more interesting base note combinations in the (MALIN+GOETZ) lineup. At its size and format, there's no reason not to try it. And for existing Strawberry EDP fans, the oil belongs alongside it - the two formats together create a richer, longer-lasting version of the scent than either achieves on its own.
