Seduction X: Antonio Banderas' New Spicy Woody Fragrance
Antonio Banderas introduces Seduction X, a new fragrance for men, launched in ️2026. Created by perfumer Ilias Ermenidis, it belongs to the woody spicy olfactory family.
With a reported average rating of 3.85 out of 5, based on 93 ratings, this newcomer is already drawing attention among fragrance enthusiasts.
Seduction X opens with elemi, grapefruit, pink pepper, green apple, and juniper berry. The top notes are bright, citrusy, and gently peppery, setting a confident tone.
At its heart, cardamom, clary sage, whisky, ginger,and angelica create a layered, aromatic blend. The whisky adds a smooth, slightly boozy warmth, while clary sage keeps things refined.
The base rests on suede, incense, cedar, sandalwood,and moss. Suede and incense bring a soft leathery, subtly smoky depth, while the woods provide lasting warmth and structure.
According to its main accords, the fragrance is aromatic, woody, warm spicy, fresh spicy, soft spicy, amber, powdery, leathery, balsamic,and musky. That's a rich profile, making it feel complex and versatile.
With eight published reviews and an average score of 3.85/5, Seduction X is a recent release that is already generating buzz in men's fragrance circles.
This scent is aimed at men who want a fragrance with presence, balancing spicy freshness with woody warmth. Fans of leather, incense, or whisky notes will likely appreciate it too.
Seduction X is a well-crafted composition from Antonio Banderas, blending classic perfumery codes with a contemporary edge. It's a solid choice for anyone seeking a multifaceted masculine signature.

I tried it and I liked it quite a bit. I can’t describe the scent or compare it to another perfume, but you can definitely feel a designer perfume, a Paco Rabanne smell. I get the feeling I’ve smelled it before and that everyone likes it. It made me feel like I was walking through a mall. Performance feels normal, acceptable. Good buy for the value.

I tried it and I bought the 100ml impulsively, smelling it while I write this review. It smells like an accessible, serious, and friendly man. It’s not a perfume I’m proud of buying; I don’t think it’s a safe blind buy, nor after trying it. It’s rather another product from a brand that has neither good longevity nor good fragrances, but good marketing. Antonio Banderas doesn’t produce perfumes for longevity, but to sell you the product with diluted expectations, just like his fragrances: a light sillage, with little duration, but that evokes that feeling of being something more.

It would be the best low-cost perfume if it lasted and projected 50% more than it already does.

Very rich opening, but it doesn’t last at all. It gave me an hour and then it stayed close to the skin.

Beautiful perfume. It’s true that it resembles Cobalt, but to my nose it also reminds me of Dolce & Gabbana K EDP, especially in the drydown. They share notes, so I’m not crazy, haha. As for performance, what can I say? For what it costs, it’s more than good: 6 hours on skin and it projects well for 1 hour. Totally safe buy.

Interesting, seductive, and mysterious scent, and in that sense it’s true it has a Bad Boy Cobalt family vibe. But as usually happens with Antonio Banderas, the performance falls short. A nighttime fragrance, for cold but not extreme weather, for a date where you want to convey a certain elegance. I did smell that cardamom, and I also thought it had geranium like the Carolina Herrera one, but it seems I was influenced by knowing the fragrance notes… What Bad Boy Cobalt sells you as earthy vetiver and truffle is presented here as “suede”.

I bought it at Ripley (Chile). Too bad how long it lasts: it has zero sillage and stays only skin-close. For me, who’s used to perfumes that walk into a place before you and stay with you for hours, compared to this one, which lasts like a body splash… However, its smell is very pleasant; my partner smelled it — she doesn’t really like perfumes — and she repeatedly said it was delicious. If only it lasted six hours, it would definitely be my signature perfume.

This perfume is a perfect example that you can be a great fragrance and dirt cheap… It has nuances and accords like Afnan Collector Edition (a dupe of Aventus Absolu). Unfortunately for me, I already have a lot of this DNA, so I had to sell it the same day.

The opening is really nice, but it doesn’t last at all—it gave me one hour and then it stayed close to the skin.

I bought it at Ripley (Chile). It’s a shame how little it lasts—it has no sillage and only stays close to the skin. For someone like me, who’s used to perfumes that walk into a room before you do and stay with you for hours, compared to this one, which lasts like a body splash… However, the smell is very pleasant; my partner smelled it—even though she doesn’t like perfumes much—and she kept saying it smelled really nice. If only it lasted six hours, it would definitely be my signature scent.
