Blind testing a new scent can sometimes be worrisome, but the signature trio from Modern Magic, plus the new addition of collaborative launch Naked Beauty, has opened our eyes to endless possibility for personal fragrance customization.
These scents are designed to stand alone and do so effectively, but they're also intended to be easily mixable and layering-friendly, allowing for a fully signature fragrance opportunity that has interchangeable potential to select your daily perfume purely based on mood.
The captivating qualities we all have bottled within us, should we choose to use them – effortless confidence, a willingness to explore, a curious mind and a fearless spirit.
The brand itself is dreamy and intentional with luxury wine-inspired bottles that pair well with whatever is on your vanity as is. The cap is reminiscent of a classic wax seal, adding to the special feel carried out by the brand developers.
Fragrance done well (and any good brand, really) should be designed to transport the end user as much as it needs to blend into their reality and every day world. Modern Magic has done a beautiful job in its execution and has created a line of perfumes that are genuinely a joy to reach for each day.
"Our formulations intend to bring out the magic in you. Allowing you to create new experiences while appreciating the memories that are captured in each bottle."
