bruno banani Magnetic Man is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Magnetic Man opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Pink Pepper, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Pepper, Cardamom, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Akigalawood, Tonka Bean, Benzoin, and Rum. bruno banani's Magnetic Man carries a Statement verdict, a spicy-led wear.

Utterly forgettable and a complete waste of money. The community agrees this one's a flop - weak, synthetic, and truly mediocre.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its extremely poor performance means this scent will hardly register, making it unsuitable for most occasions where you want to be noticed. It might just about pass for a fleeting casual scent, but don't expect compliments or longevity.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Magnetic Man opens with a fleeting spark of zesty mandarin and bergamot, briefly cut by the peppery spice of clary sage. As it quickly settles, a muddled heart of nutmeg and cardamom tries to assert itself, with a faint boozy whisper of rum lurking underneath. The base, if you can call it that, is a barely-there blend of abstract woods and a whisper of tonka, offering little in the way of warmth or lasting impression.
