    A Magic Potion
    “A magic potion in this world obsessed with science” –
    Isabella Rossellini in Death Becomes Her
    This fragrance reminds me of the magic youth potion in the 90’s horror comedy Death Becomes Her starring Meryl Streep Goldie Hawn Bruce Willis & Isabella Rossellini.
    If that magic potion had a scent it would smell like this one.
    This is a rich sweet fruity floral with an Oriental and chypre body.
    There’s more going on than the simple arrangement of notes.
    It’s such a complex and yet sweet, almost innocent fragrance.
    At the first spritz of Magic, you get a fresh citrus burst of clementine and orange.
    It’s definitely citrus flavored which I thought was pretty ordinary but all you have to do is stand by for the magic.
    Once the citrus notes dissipate, the juicy pear scent emerges and it’s almost tropical like a pear that grows in a jungle.
    The fruitiness of this scent is not cloying or sugary.
    It’s more along the lines of fruity scents familiar to those of us who have worn Sophia Grojsman fragrances – Tresor Lancôme Ex-Cla Mation Coty, Sotto Voce by Laura Biagotti, Sun Moon Stars Karl Lagerfeld.
    This time around though with only citrus and pear notes the fruitiness is not as sharp.
    The florals are to die for!
    An exotic orchid, Egyptian jasmine and a yellow floral ylang are the floral notes that most come through.
    This is not a bouquet of flowers but more of a discovery of florals.
    Each floral note is clearly there.
    For me the rose and the lily of the valley are the softer notes. There are not a lot of flowers but they are perfumy enough for me.
    The patchouli leaves, warm amber and musk, along with sandalwood, make up the final stage of the fragrance and the dry down.
    It smells very Oriental with pronounced amber, resinous, spicy, and golden. If you like amber based perfumes, you’ll be delighted.
    On me the musk is nonexistent and only the slightest hints of sandalwood and possibly one other wood note is there.
    Even with such strong features, this scent is pretty timid in it’s projection and feels more like a little halo.
    This is a touch of magic, not an entire transformation like Magie Noire by Lancôme.
    This is easy to wear, it’s youthful, airy, sweet, and casual. It can be appreciated by today’s fruity floral fans because that top and middle note development is similar to scents you probably wear today.
    Lasts long enough, over 5, 7 hours, something to wear for a date or a summer getaway. Not tropical but definitely a spring and summer day time scent.
    At times this even reminded me of Paris Hilton’s new perfume GOLD RUSH which my daughter bought for me. This is a pretty fruity floral but more on the mature side, especially because of it’s Oriental dry down
    The dry down also reminded me a bit of Black Pearls by Elizabeth Taylor and Nokomis by Coty. This turns balsamic, musky, woodsy and even a bit unisex so guys if you ender-bend with your fragrances, check this one out.
    The magic is subtle, but palpable.
    A beautiful fragrance.

    Magic, indeed!! Celine is undoubtedly the Queen of understated luxury and style, she has influenced countless of designers and high street giants with her sleek, timeless classics ( that’s my fashion designer background talking, take no notice…). This scent epitomises all that alongside the signature elements of Sophia Grojsman. I would have missed this gem if it wasn’t recommended by one of the most delicious and experienced noses here in Fragrantica as I would have deemed it too fruity floral for my liking!! And, when delicious nose suggests a scent resistance is futile!!!!! Make no mistake, this scent is more than what the notes suggest. There is the aroma of ripe pear expertly mixed with The freshness of citrus, sprinkled abundantly with coriander, kissed softly by the reddest and most velvety rose and other floral nuances, on a bed of aromatic musk and sandalwood! Divine! Spicy, musky, floral and totally resinous. Classy, like the Celine frocks, bold and memorable like most of Sophia Grojsman’s concoctions. A match made in heaven! This is NOT your usual fruity/floral addressed to the perpetually adolescent of this world. Sozz! This is a juice for the more discerning crowd that appreciate not only quality but personality too. Mesmerising!!! I am glad I took notice and had the chance to own this beautiful scent. Though for women, it can be unisex, you know my moto! Whether it’s for men, women or crocodiles if you like it wear it!! Can’t recommend it enough! Another timeless gem for my wardrobe!!
    Thank you, delicious nose for the recommendation!!!!

    On me the coriander and patchouli are dominant shining through the overripe pear.

    Fragrance Review For Magic By Celine
    Top Notes: Clementine Coriander Orchid Pear Rose
    Middle Notes: Jasmine Ylang Ylang Lily Of the Valley
    Base Notes: Sandalwood Amber Patchouli Musk
    I read the article on this fragrance and remembered it was a fragrance I had in a home I had once lived in between the years 1995 and 1997. Then I asked my older sister if she remembered it or if she still had it and she did. This is rather outdated now and really does smell like a fruity floral frag of the 90’s. But that’s why I love it! This is very easy to wear, innocent sweet and yet full bodied and long lasting. I had hoped with a name like Magic that it would smell at least a little bit like Magie Noire by Lancôme which I really love. This is not really that magical, sorry folks. Just a simple fruited floral scent although I still really love it. The bottle however is very reminiscent of Chopard Enchanted. And it has some notes in common with Enchanted and smells a little bit like a more fruity Enchanted which is bigger on the patchouli. Magic opens with fruit accords: clementine, citrus and pear. The pear is very pronounced and very delicious. It has fruit for days and remains very fruity throughout the duration of the performance of the fragrance. It throws up flowery scents: ylang ylang, and lily of the valley. It smells mainly of an ylang ylang and of an unlisted orange blossom. Very sweet flowery smell. Nothing impressive or exotic. It has a dry down of sandalwood and amber. There’s a light musk or white musk but it’s never unisex. It’s very feminine and sweet. It has a golden hot amber not quite balsamic but more like an oil. It’s really good. I am so glad I rediscovered it. It belongs to my sister so I will have to look for this perfume online. And guess what ? It’s still selling on Amazon.com probably in a reformulation and it’s available in it’s vintage form on ebay. This is very lovely.

    This smells very coconutty! I am surprised that coconut and vanilla are not mentioned here as ingredients. One of the first gourmand fragrances on the market. Celine Magic is a 90’s powerhouse like Thierry Mugler’s Angel. Magical on the right person.

    I am a man but some times i use female pafumes, I am tired of the smoke, vetiver, leather,tobaco smell in the male pafumes
    Then I found magic , Sweet pear! I became a fruity pear head, I just use 1 push inside my suit ( I nomally do not use pafume on skin) Feel warm and happy.

    Huge difference here in EDT & EDP. The EDP is gorgeous, powdery and warm. The EDT is like smelling a completely different scent. More of a cold floral, both nice, but i prefer EDP ( which of course is more expensive and harder to find )

    I was able to snag a few ml of this Magic – as EdP-Version as it seems. Why it has been this unknown and ignored is beyond me. Everyone goes on about the mystery and uniqueness of all the Mitsoukos, Armanis, Miss Cheries, …
    And this? This is as blessedly perfect as all of them!
    There is a moderate, pre-80s chypre-base, patchouli most, warm but not dense flowers which might be jasmine and vanilla-orchid (or as Action stated additionally Heliotrope), but what makes this really a sophisticated and masterly woven perfume, is the combination of fresh fruityness and spices, which I think could be cinnamon,coriander. It is a special gem for important and refined experiences in my future.
    That this is so hard to get makes me already shuddering-thinking about the hunt for new mls…
    Update: Found a bottle of Magic – in a Flakon as Splash. It seems to be the EdP-Version…

    This reminds me of Ferre eau de parfume. A similar concept, especially the opening and middle notes. Bold and Strong. If you experience them in parallel there are obvious differences. Magic is more astringent with fruity and floral notes and the dry down is close to the skin with patchouli, amber and musk. The sandalwood becomes more dominant in the late dry down. Obviously a modern chypre. Ferre starts fruity and dries down floral with a powdery iris, amber and musk.
    Magic is nicely blended, like any other “well done” chypre. The composition is not very easy to read. The notes are coming out like sparks, once in a while, so you have to be patient and ready.
    This is not a must have for me. It is difficult to understand which note bothers me; I think my nose picks the pear –coriander combination. Somehow they bring a disaccord to the overall harmony.
    MAGIC. Top clementine, coriander, orchid, pear and rose; middle jasmine, ylang-ylang and lily-of-the-valley; base sandalwood, amber, patchouli and musk.
    FERRE. Top bergamot, melon, pineapple, iris-leaf; middle ylang-ylang, magnolia, freesia, violet, rose and jasmine, base sandalwood, ‘basmati rice ’, iris, amber, musks and vanilla.
    Nice modern chypre with a warm, sensuous dry down. After 6 hours it is hard to believe these beautiful oriental tones belong to a chypre fragrance.
    7.5 /10

    This scent is truly high quality, refined, intense and magical! I’ve found a mini of EdP in the red box, but otherwise is not available anymore. Another gorgeous discontinued fragrance 🙁
    I rarely wear it, it’s not for everyday use, more of a special event scent as it is very strong and complex, feminine, bold and spiced. Lovely!

    This has a strong caracther. It does not remind me of any other scent. Wanted to try sometinhg diferent from my usual scents and to me it feels dry and powdery, without the sweetness some scents have that get me tired very quickly. probably more suited for night but its nt overwelming for office use, since on my skin it does not leave a trail behind. You have to be close to feel it, giving out a sense of intimacy. I don’t feel the flower notes, most its the clementine and sandalwood.
