Description
One year after a successful launch of her first fragrance, Naomi Campbell, comes another one – Naomagic – based on Naomi’s personal notion of femininity. Naomi says that this fragrance was inspired by her favorite flower lily of the valley, which blooms on her birthday.
The fragrance is floral, with citrusy opening, heart created of white petals, and strong and erotic musk base. The top notes are bergamot, orange, and violet; the heart notes are lily of the valley, jasmine, white violet, Caribbean Frangipani and almond. The base notes are sandal wood, musk and vanilla.
The bottle design is reminiscent of two stones that Naomi always carries with her, as she believes that they protect her and attract people. The fragrance was created by Dorothee Piot in 2000.

To all the ladies who love Naomagic and feel sad its discontinued, go on line and find Federico Mahora 09, it is almost identical, great value and long lasting. I bought some for my Mum who was delighted with the smell alike.

The first sniff was okey, so I bought the perfume, many ears ago. When I came home, it didn’t smell good at my skin at all. Sorry, fans, but, I don’t like it.
Yuka – :
This was amazing! Please bring it back!
Sweet yet mature. Just loved it, was my signature in early 20ties

Fragrance Review For Naomagic Naomi Campbell
Top Notes: Orange Green Notes Violet Bergamot Cardamom
Middle Notes: Almond Jasmine Lily of the Valley
Base Notes: Sandalwood Tonka Musk Vanilla Cedar
Very sweet and yet mature fragrance. I thought the bottle was unusual but I like creative looking bottles. The first spritz is citrus fresh and also spicy. The citrus stands out as does the cardamom ginger note. Spicy but not too spicy. Just right. Then I could smell the jasmine and lily of the valley which blends well with the greenery that is there from start to finish. This is a green floral with a sweet almond in the heart. The vanilla dry down is blissful, sweet. This is a quiet perfume and you can wear it without anyone even noticing it on you. Very clean, floral and vanillic. I find it very pleasant and it’s easy to wear to the office/work and as an every day casual fragrance to wear with casual clothes. Simple innocent sweet and gorgeous. Sometimes I just wanna smell like Naomi Campbell and she does smell so good. Thank You Naomi.

I saw a bottle of this at a garage sale and thought it was a pregnancy test.

This is a lovely floral fragrance of violets jasmines and woods. The almond note is reminiscent but only slightly of Lolita Lempicka I don’t think anyone else picks up on this. It’s casual and it’s a fair weather fragrance. It opens with citrus and green notes, lily of the valley is also adding to the greenery but very flowery as well with violets. The fragrance lasts a very long time over 6 hours and it’s Naomi Campbelle’s most mature fragrance. The rest are very nice but this is the one I keep spritzing on. A really beautiful fragrance. Showing my appreciation for this amazing talented hard working model who rocked the 80s and 90s with her ebony beauty.

This was my first love – my first perfume that I choose by myself. I adored it and used up at least 5 bottles while growing up. It is still one of my favourites, but since it is discounted I switched to Armani Lei/She – the smell is basically the same. And the love i feel for this smell is still the same.
It must be true what they say about first loves – they’re special and you’ll remember them for the whole life. I am glad that this masterpiece was my first love. <3

This is the strongest perfume from Naomi Campbell. It’s powdery, sharp but feminine at the same time. I can smell almond and lily-of-the-valley very strong. I think this perfume is perfect only for special occasion because it’s too classy and too elegance for everyday use. 😀
The lasting power is unbelievable. It stays on my skin for days.
It’s pretty sad to know that this perfume is discontinued but at the same time it makes me feel so proud even more to have this perfume in my wardrobe. XD

A lover once bought this for my birthday, the first time I’d ever worn a celeb perfume. It’s been well over a decade since I had it but I’ve been looking for it ever since. I remember it as light scent with a lot of almond in the dry down. I love the bottle shape, very artsy, a glass sculpture.
Mehqj072Bessinepome – :
I had it in the early 2000s. A rather soft and feminine smell with a bit of powder in it. It has some similar ingredients like Armani “She” but I still think Armani smells more defined, luxurious and generally nicer. I don’t think that the prices they want for it now are justified. In the end it was “just” a celebrity Perfume which was available in the local drug store for about 11-19 Euros.
soortlorneync – :
I am sure I would get very nostalgic if I got it now…When I was a teenager and couldn’t afford Naomagic,me and my friend would go to this fancy cosmetics store and I would always get my wrist sprayed with this perfume,which would last for days,especially,if I got some on my sleeve…I remember sniffing a sleeve multiple times during the physics lessons at school.
I wish it was not discontinued,because now a bottle costs anywhere from 120 $ to 900 $,even though in the pictures,you see that the perfume has changed its colour to orange,which,of course,means the scent has changed as well.
It is a warm,cosy and sexy scent with a depth to it,not too sweet or soapy. I find it difficult to describe,but I could recognize it among tons of other celebrity scents after all these years.
Naomagic is my nr 1 perfume in the ”to buy” list..but I think,I will be getting a small bottle of She by Armani very soon since so many people say they smell alike and it is way more affordable than Naomagic these days.

I wore Naomagic over 10 years ago now and my ex went crazy over this scent, he loved it so much. I remember it has having a slight undertone of bitterness, but I’m thinking now it might have been the green notes that interrupted that sweetness that I liked, and preferred, as a young girl (and still do, I guess). This is a hard to find discontinued scent now, so I ordered a dupe of it which smelled very close to the real thing, but I realized that this was not up to par for me anymore. Some thing is better left as a nice memory, but if I ever did smell this on someone I’d probably do love it… it’s just one of those scents that for me bring back memories of the uncomplicated life before adulthood. This and “innocent” by chloe (what I fitting name, hah!)
I’ve loved so many of Naomi’s perfumes, but Paradise Passion and her signature scent are my favorites and I’ve been through quite a few bottles.
Jevgenijs – :
I can feel the sweet almonds from it. In fact it smells like that white wedding candies, haha!
Is sweet but is for sure for mature women.

It was my birthday present 13 years ago. I got it from a very special person so I fell in love with this fragrance. I was pretty shocked when it was sold out. Have you seen the prices on ebay?!?
When I was looking for dupes I found many reports of Armani “She”. I have to say, that it is similar and a good alternative for Naomagic. Not the same but very nice.
I also tried a dupe from FM Group…. but that was very disappointing!
lexa007_88 – :
Naomagic is better than Armani Lei. It is more soft, feminine and does not have that masculine note that Lei has. Also, Lei fades very quickly, this one lasts a long time.
Please bring it back… 🙁
Jd_26rus – :
I am missing this fragrance 🙁 I lov it very much..
reginavadim – :
Naomi, i’m despeeratly asking you to give us back Naomagic or something very similar! It was a huge mistake to discunted.
NYZ – :
i love the bottle too <3
Acunya1983 – :
Very warm and powdery scent. I cannot smell any lilly-of-the-valley in it. My chemistry brings up especially the vanilla and almond. Pretty masculine though. Perfect for Autumn/Winter.
I would not compare it to Love etc. of The Body Shop. I have it too, and to my senses, it smells completely differently. Love etc. is more spicy and has no balmy, powdery scent. Both perfumes are great, though!
malinka681 – :
This reminds me about my teenage. I bought Emporio Armani Lei by accident and it smells very similar. Nowadays I prefer Lei because it’s easier to find and much cheaper. Scent is close enough to Naomagic.
ivanen – :
This smells like Emporio Armani Lei! Love them both!
Acunya – :
absolutely unforgettable… warm… sexy…
not for a teenager
but for a 25+ it it a perfect weapon for a date
sheva-95 – :
i am so sad that this one has been discontinued. it was one of the best celebrity fragrances ever. my mom always used this one and she smelled just gorgeous. i do not really get the similarity to armani she (unfortunately).
i think this one is/was a comforting scent, well belanced and not too strong. the lasting power was pretty good.
billTweri – :
fresh powdery floral, almonds and hint of citrus. cool scent for winter/fall. I find dry down to be quite exact as Naomi Campbell perfume minus sweet notes. lasting power 6 hours!
Антоша – :
Unique, impressive composition! Sensual, calming infusion of the notes, perfectly composed from the opening until the drydown.
I think, every european members of the Fragrantica knows Palmolive Aroma Therapy shower gel(purple color). Naomagic smells exactly like this shower gel. Sensual, calming, soothing fragrance, very unusual, the best celebrity scent ever.
I tried many of Naomi’s perfumes but in the end always get rid of them both. Just one exeption left in my collection: Naomagic.:)
For me this is the most purple scent in the world.(Maybe because this shower gel color is purple…):)It’s misterious,extraordinary, deep and subtly enticing.Unfortunately it’s discounted.:(
comdiger – :
I kinda like this, I had no idea what to expect from Miss Campbell but…I managed to get a sample randomly so….I wore it for a day.
As some people have said, it starts out a little like Armani “She”. A kind of fresh, youthful feel.
This changes though somewhat throughout the drydown and it becomes a tropical-ish smell with an element of synthetic plastic, which actually works. It’s slightly unusual…but I like it. The tonka is what’s powering the pasticy vibe, I love tonka and it’s quite strong in this blend.
It settles down really nicely, it becomes a very wafty scent, it’s around you and its there but it’s not uber massive in the sillage department. Kind of a second skin scent.
Not a keeper for me but I’m glad I got tot try it, I was wondering what could be contained in the strange white pebble bottle.
KSA53 – :
Actually this is a nice, classic parfume, but it’s too sweet and overwelming.Too much vanilla and spices to my nose, but the flowers are well mixed. I like the way it develops on skin, become nicer in time. Not my favorite, but I don’t hate it either.
Taliban111 – :
delphine67 I suggest you compare it to Emporio Armani Lei. It is a copy of that perfume, for sure. Not a fan of either of them though
Зеленоглазка – :
a very soft and powdery scent.Its not a ordinary perfume.I dont know wich to compare it with
Deroxkslmk – :
REminds me of snow. Actually I love wearing it in winter. It is indeed a beautiful fragrance but they killed it. It’s not in production anymore. 🙁
rybkinprim – :
Actually I had never been interested in frags by NC but once tested this one just by chance and was captivated by this scent absolutely.
I think the key word to describe Naomagic would be “unusual”. It is not strong at all but is still impossible not to be noticed due to its individuality.
According to the description lily-of-the-valley is the centre of the composition. It seems to be true but you still don’t feel this note as a dominant one. The smell of white flowers is enriched with almond. The almond is rather strong in Naomagic (that is a plus for me). The base is rather powdery than warm, very tender and feminine; for my perception, vanilla gives the main position away to woody notes.
I agree that the whole composition can be defined as floral, but so special floral, very different from others within this group. To express its peculiarity I can say that I generally consider woody scents to match me the best but Naomagic could persuade me to depart from my woody concept.
P.S. It certainly needs time to get on with this frag.
I heard some comparisons like “soap” or “old furniture” – all those are quite just. Be ready to remember both of soap and old furniture. But if you give it some more try you have a chance to discover its fascination.

i don’t like naomy campbell as a person and also as a model but lets not get into the details and talk about the perfume…..the perfume is actually good very powdery and vanilla smell, sweet comforting,i think is the best when you are wearing a casmir white sweater. i feel on the base a sweet amber but in genberal a i can say is very powdery
BAJIK – :
i have it this scent parfum by naomi..i love it in summer days ,very powdery and soft smell,this scent is magical indeet
KORR – :
Really love this perfume! It reminds me of Hugo Boss Pure Purple because the almond scent is so strong. Anyway it’s a very clean, modern, but feminine fragrance. Suggested for women who feel themselves mature in mind, because it is not a sweet and cute fragrance. The white color is very expressing for the scent. I bought the 75 ml Deodorant Natural Spray but it lasts for so long for its price, for about 3-4 hours which is absolutely not bad when speaking about a 12$ celebrity perfume!
The drydown note is soo pleasant too, warm, natural, sweet vanilla scent.
One of the best celeb fragrances, I agree. Its a pity that the production has been stopped.
GUMOZNI – :
Lovely Parfume smels good
prosto-romkola – :
i have nice memories about this fragrance 🙂
scabscige – :
True, it’s very similar to Emporio Armani Lei by Giorgio Armani.
It is oriental-floral for me.
Intensive, nuzzling, sensual.
For women that like to be noticed and admired.
corey79 – :
All fluffy and girlish, smells like a pudder-box and soap. Clean and a bit strong on a first ”smell” but afterwards leaves a very nice and girly-sweet impression. Seems to me it goes best with white and baby-pink clothes on, in everyday use (work, coffie with friends..)
mustd1e81 – :
i agree that its its similar to armani, but stronger and sharper
madfire – :
Smells very much like Giorgio Armani she, but not as refined.
