Either put something like the following in /etc/portage/bashrc:

case "$CATEGORY/$PN" in
    app-emulation/virtualbox)
        CFLAGS="-march=..."
        CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS"
    ;;
esac

Or:

# mkdir -p /etc/portage/env/app-emulation && echo 'CFLAGS="-march=..."
CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS"' > /etc/portage/env/app-emulation/virtualbox
