Luckyscent Videos: Magnolia Grandiflora Michel

If you like the idea of a super realistic floral scent in your perfume, I highly recommend checking out Grandiflora. So this brand, no surprise, was created by a florist, her name is Saskia Havikas. She is based in Australia and she has been a floral artist for 20 plus years. She does art installations with florals, she does bouquets, she does everything, you name it. She's written books and then she decided to expand into a perfume line as well.

So she's got a number of really beautiful, specifically floral scents to go with her brand which is excellent and I highly recommend you check her out. Check out the whole line. But the one I want to talk to you about today is called Magnolia Michel. So the first perfumes she introduced were 2 Magnolia scents which is based on the namesake. Grandiflora refers to Magnolia. The other one is called Michel Sandrine and it is also truly beautiful. It's a little brighter, a little greener, a little more citrusy, definitely worth trying.

But Michel is my personal favorite. So Michel is actually named after Michel Runinska. He is a famous perfumer in his own right. He's made perfumes for Frederic Mall. He's been an artist and a photographer and a perfume maker his whole life basically because his father is a super famous perfumer who created scents for Dior and Hermes and the list goes on and on. So he learned how to create in the art of perfume from a very young age. So he based the scent, he actually created it based on Magnolia trees that were blossoming around his home in Grasse in France. He actually created, I believe for himself, not necessarily to sell or distribute just because he wanted to capture that idea. So you can understand how true this really smells to an actual Magnolia blossom.

So what I love about this is if you picture Magnolia, picture a Magnolia blossom in full bloom, right? So Magnolia has this nice lemony kind of note
