About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Magie Noire (Lancôme, 1978) is a chypre floral that opens with a sharp green blast of galbanum, cassis, and hyacinth, lifted by bergamot and a touch of raspberry. The heart is a dense floral bouquet: honeyed narcissus, tuberose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, and rose, grounded by cedar and orris. The base is a dark, earthy tapestry of oakmoss, patchouli, civet, incense, myrrh, amber, vetiver, sandalwood, and musk, with spices adding warmth. This is a bold, animalic, and mossy fragrance, typical of late-70s chypres. It suits collectors who appreciate vintage-style complexity and aren't afraid of civet or heavy oakmoss. Best for evening wear in cool weather, it projects strongly and lasts for hours. If you love classics like Aromatics Elixir or Paloma Picasso, Magie Noire is a must-try. Note: vintage bottles vary; seek early formulations for the full experience.
