Lancome Magnifique

With the spiciness of saffron, the warmth of roses and smoky embrace of the exotic nargarmota wood, Lancome’s Magnifique is both a bold, earthy and more surprisingly, very feminine fragrance. While not as flirty as a more traditional floral based perfume, Magnifique instead alludes to a more sophisticated and elegant form of femininity. It’s collection of warm notes make it a wintery and sensual scent and the blend of rose, spices and woods give it an east-meets-west feel. Taking to the streets of Auckland, we found out what you thought.
