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.

中文簡介

Magie Noire(Lancôme,1978)係一款經典西普花香調,開場係白松香、黑醋栗、風信子嘅尖銳綠意,加上佛手柑同少量覆盆子。中調係濃密花香:水仙、晚香玉、茉莉、依蘭、玫瑰,配以雪松同鳶尾根。基調係橡苔、廣藿香、麝貓香、乳香、沒藥、琥珀、香根草、檀香同麝香,再加香料增添暖意。呢支香大膽、帶動物感同苔蘚感,適合鍾意復古複雜度、唔怕麝貓香同重橡苔嘅收藏家。最好喺涼爽天氣嘅夜晚用,投射力強,留香持久。如果你鍾意Aromatics Elixir或Paloma Picasso,呢支一定要試。留意:舊版配方有差異,早期版本先至係完整體驗。

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.
