It smells like watery roses, then spices show up, reminds me of cloves. It’s a little bit too spicy, similar to incense in church. But I like it. It’s unusual. If I spray too much, it gives a little bit of nausea, it’s really spicy.

When I first sprayed this it was incredibly strong – and in the first minute or so it seemed quite chemical and medicinal which I wasn’t all that keen on, but then it changed completely.
Magnifique quickly evolved into a sweet mix of Saffron and Spices and the medicinal smell disappeared. On the dry down I still get those delicious spices but also very delicate Jasmine and Rose. The wood notes are lovely but don’t appear on my skin for at least 30-40 minutes after spraying it.
Have been wearing it for a few hours and Magnifique has settled into a combination of all these beautiful notes listed – the spices haven’t faded, they’ve just become more gentle. It’s actually gone a little musky on me as well which I am loving 🙂
The bottle captures this perfume perfectly – the mix of intense red glass with the lighter (and clear) shades represent the juice inside to a tee. It’s strong and intense at first, but then it settles down while maintaining everything that makes it great. I can easily see this as my go-to scent for Spring.
For an EDT, the longevity and projection of this is really impressing me. In all honesty, I never expected to fall hard for this one, and I’m glad I have.

sorry everyone but, ugh, this stuff is hopeless to me; like pointing out that this is similar to the EDP and voting that it is.
I feel Lancome did go wrong with this, and were right to pull it.
“Both have similar top note a la chic carrots. EDT heart is very spicy caraway that overshadows those carrots & differs from EDP’s glamorous pickled carrots.”
Need we say any more? That’s what’s magnificent? Pickled carrots? 0_o
And there’s more,
“…so I find it very woody and like soily.” Fine. Well designed and in context that could work… but,
“I don’t like to wear this…”
Precisely
Right there.

This is like a younger sister of Magnifique EDP and definitely lighter, softer and still magnificent. But I prefer an EDP more. It bring me back a sensual moment. Lancome never go wrong about perfumes for me.

I’m not sure if it was my body chemistry or the perfume itself that was off, but it was not at all what I had expected. Especially at the price I paid for it! I could only smell the spicy notes very faintly – they disappeared after about five minutes, and I could only smell them by pressing my wrists to my nose to begin with. The after-scent was far too sweet – some sort of chemically engineered fake fruit scent you only find in five dollar knockoffs of celebrity scents. I really wanted to like it, as the sample I’d smelled in a magazine was spicy and exotic, and oh so wonderful. This could have been so much better!

I bought bottle of 75ml one month ago, and my bottle is almost empty. I don´t know, but I think this EdT lasts just for two hours on my skin. It is nice smell, but nothing special for my nose and for that what you get it is to expensive.

I really like this I love the spicy scent.
Sweamiarrip – :
I did not like magnifique but the edt is lovely and really suits me. People stop me and ask what it is as a gentle waft follows me, and they love it too.
only down side, is it doesnt last so long as i prefer perfume to linger….

I can see the difference between EDT and EDP clearly. Softer than the EDP, the EDT is suitable for summer days. Too light for nights. Adorable fragrance indeed. I bought the EDT by mistake.Thought I was buying the EDP. lol! Can´t wait to get the EDP later. Magnifique fragrance (EDT or EDP)is a must-have! Love it!
StoottOnelm – :
I really dislike this one. I agree with Chatnoir about the chemical smell to it. Anne Hathaway is the model for the fragrance and I love her which is why I wanted to try it, but alas, it’s not for me.
sorytraron – :
I really see no difference between EDT and EDP. Both have similar top note a la chic carrots. Heart of EDT is very spicy caraway that overshadows those ‘carrots’ and differs from EDP’s glamorous pickled carrots. so I find it very woody and like soily. I don’t like to wear this, but I placed scented blotter into Vogue magazine and it really is very enjoyable. Ah yes, lasting power is magnificent and this one too is kind of sillage monster. If you hated the EDP, I think this is no better then.

I like this smell, is a slight and fresh fragrance oriental kind of. It seems Tresor, with gentle notes that were added. I recommend Magnifique to the mature woman. It is adequate for night.
wrcwfnkvi5e – :
Ugh. This literally smelled like “Off” bug repellent to me upon first spray. After it settled, the chemical-y smell wore off a bit, but it never fully went away.

I did not care much for the original Magnifique, but I wondered if the lighter version would be an improvement.
The fragrance begins with a hint of fruit (berries?) and some fresh bergamot and is quite pleasant at this stage. Then it moves on to its rose and jasmine heart, which seems to be fairly synthetic: I smell the same bitterness I got in the original EDP version. The saffron comes in after this stage, covering up the bitter chemical-ish note with its dry/creamy/spicy luxuriousness, and rounding out the florals. Saffron is followed by delicious spices. I can identify cardamom, and there are other spices, but they are well blended and I cannot pick out each spice. The spices flow into “woods” – really, it’s what I believe to be Cashmeran, a synthetic aromachemical that has a plush woody character. I generally like Cashmeran, but there may be a little too much in Magnifique EDT, because it stands out and does not blend well with what’s left of the spices.
Interesting, and certainly more pleasant from a distance than up close. However, I won’t be buying it. (On the other arm I tested Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere, and the vast difference between the two, in terms of raw materials and of composition, is striking. The Chanel is pure loveliness.)
