Magnetic Woman

Magnetic Woman by the German brand Bruno Banani, released in 2022, combines a chocolatey gourmand side with an equally strong woody one. Floral and citrus accords add a lighter second layer.

The start is fresh and fruity, with citruses, pear and black currant giving a juicy, slightly tangy brightness. Jasmine then adds a soft floral sweetness, before the heart of the scent emerges: cacao pod and gianduia, the Italian chocolate-hazelnut blend, bring a rich, nutty cocoa note. Cedar and cashmeran close it out, cedar dry and pencil-like, cashmeran soft, musky and almost suede-like, keeping the sweetness grounded.

The pairing of chocolate and wood suggests cooler weather, and it should feel most at home from autumn into winter, on evenings out or at weekends. It suits someone who likes dessert notes but prefers them balanced by something drier rather than sugary from start to finish.
