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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for close-quarters wear, performing well for casual settings and the office without being overpowering. While intimate, its romantic undertones could work for a quiet date, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

About

Magnolia Supercritique opens with a soft, fresh citrus kiss, quickly transitioning into a heart dominated by lush ylang-ylang and sweet orange blossom. Despite the name, magnolia plays a supporting role, weaving through the composition to create a clean, slightly creamy floral blend. It settles into a tender, warm skin scent that's more about comforting sweetness than bold bloom, evoking a delicate, honeyed whisper.
