Lubin Magda is a feminine scent that joins a sweet, fruity opening of cherry and blackcurrant syrup to a creamy floral heart of gardenia and orange blossom.

What does Magda (2021) smell like?

It lasts well and projects at a moderate level. Most voters pick spring and fall, with leisure and evening wear leading, and nearly half of voters read it as feminine.

The top notes of cherry, blackcurrant syrup, mandarin orange and pomegranate give a sweet fruitiness. In the heart, cinnamon adds spice while gardenia and tuberose fill out a creamy floral side. The base of vanilla, sandalwood, amaretto and Peru balsam settles it into something sweet and warm.
