About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Magie Noire, launched by Lancôme in 1950, is an Oriental Floral that opens with a distinctive quartet of amber, violet, musk, and jasmine. This top-note arrangement immediately sets a powdery, ambered tone, with violet's sweet floralcy and jasmine's lush white petals softened by musk. The fragrance's main accords—powdery at 100%, amber at 87%, violet at 81%, musky at 81%, white floral at 63%, and floral at 52%—underscore its classic, enveloping character. Collectors should note that the pyramid lacks listed heart and base notes, but the top notes themselves are unusually rich and persistent, suggesting a dense, long-lasting composition. This scent suits those who appreciate vintage powdery orientals with a floral heart, ideal for evening wear or cool weather. It is a piece of mid-century perfumery history, appealing to enthusiasts of bold, statement fragrances from the golden age of French perfume.

中文簡介

Lancôme 於1950年推出的 Magie Noire,屬東方花香調,前調由琥珀、紫羅蘭、麝香同茉莉組成,一開場就散發粉感同琥珀暖意,紫羅蘭嘅甜花香同茉莉嘅白花氣息被麝香柔化。主調香調中,粉感佔100%,琥珀87%,紫羅蘭81%,麝香81%,白花63%,花香52%,盡顯經典包裹感。雖然官方未列中調同基調,但前調已異常濃郁持久,暗示整體結構厚實。呢支香適合鍾情復古粉感東方調、鍾意花香主導嘅用家,尤其適合晚間場合或涼爽天氣。對於追求上世紀中期法國香水黃金時代風格嘅收藏家,呢支係不可錯過嘅歷史之作。

Before you buy

A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
