Magnolia

Magnolia by Solinotes presents a clean, fresh white floral profile centered around jasmine sambac, with a prominent honeysuckle and syringa presence that gives it a vivacious, slightly green floral character. While marketed as a magnolia fragrance, the actual magnolia note is faint or absent in most experiences, with the dominance of jasmine leading to a scent that closely resembles the dry-down of Gucci Bloom—creamy but notably lighter and more youthful in comparison. The fragrance has a pleasant, delicate sillage that remains moderate to intimate, and it performs best during daywear, particularly in spring and summer. It's praised for its realistic floral accords and affordability, making it a favorite for those seeking an inexpensive floral without overt sweetness. However, its longevity is criticized as weak, with most users reporting it fades quickly. The fragrance is less effective when layered heavily due to its initially sharp composition and runs a risk of being synthetic or flat for sensitive noses.
