Naomagic

I won’t pretend I can pick apart every single note in the pyramid - and honestly, I don’t think this perfume asks for that. Naomagic is meant to be experienced as a whole, as a complete design, the way a finished garment makes more sense than its individual stitches. Some elements do step forward, though. There’s a demure vanilla here: soft-spoken, never cloying, a quiet hum rather than a sugary spotlight. A gentle orange lifts the opening - bright and a little juicy at first - then folds back into the composition, leaving behind a fresh, citrusy frame. The musk is tender and comforting, and the surrounding green notes settle over it like a light, airy veil - the two blending so naturally that the freshness seems to rest on the musk’s warmth. And at the center of it all is violet, elegant and poised, giving the fragrance its unmistakable character. As it settles, Naomagic becomes reminiscent of Chanel No. 19 - that same green, fresh powderiness, the cool poise, the clean vegetal shimmer. The difference lies in the ascent: where No. 19 strides out crisp and aloof, Naomagic opens with a touch more fruit, a soft sweetness that rounds its edges before the greenery takes over. A composed, quietly enchanted scent - more charm than drama, more elegance than spectacle. A little magic, indeed.

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.

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.:(

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

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!
