Magic
Fragrance notes
Character
Ylang-ylang opens Magic with a yellow floral richness that feels immediate and full. It carries a faint fruity softness that keeps the start from feeling sharp. The flower reads creamy rather than fresh, leaning into the sweeter side of the accord list without becoming a gourmand.
Rose and peony enter together, with guaiac wood threading through the petals. The rose is warm and rounded, while the peony adds a light floral lift that prevents the heart from sitting too heavy. Guaiac wood brings a dry, resinous edge that anchors the flowers and points toward the base.
Sandalwood and amber dominate the drydown. The sandalwood is smooth and slightly powdery, blending closely with the amber’s golden warmth. Spicy facets linger here, giving the finish a gentle heat that sits against the skin. The floral notes from the heart remain present but soften, allowing the woods and amber to carry the composition forward.
Magic fits evenings when the air is cool and the light is low. A woman who enjoys rose tempered by resinous woods and a sweet, amber-rich finish will find it rewarding.
