Eau de Magnolia by Frédéric Malle is a sparkling floral chypre that highlights magnolia’s naturally bright, citrus-tinged character. Instead of leaning creamy or soft, it feels crisp and luminous—fresh at first, then settling into something more grounded.It opens with bergamot and grapefruit, giving a bright, sparkling freshness that feels light and immediate. As it settles, magnolia brings a smooth, petal-like quality, balanced by a subtle green edge that keeps it clean rather than sweet. The drydown adds oakmoss, vetiver, and patchouli, creating a soft, mossy depth beneath the brightness.PerfumerCarlos BenaimPerfume NotesCalabrian Bergamot, Magnolia, Vetiver, Patchouli, Moss, Cedar, AmberAvailable as fragrance samples and decants in glass spray atomizers.
