Magman Arno Sorel arrived in 2010 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. A masculine fragrance from the fern and fruit families. An eau de toilette — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
The sillage is delicate — an intimate cloud that stays close to the skin. This fragrance doesn't rush to leave — you can count on high longevity. The home of this fragrance is France. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
A subtle trail—just a hint of fragrance
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition of Magman evolves as a continuous scent journey, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The style of Arno Sorel is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Fruit, Musc and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. For persistence High indicates a stable lasting impression.
In a unified mixed pyramid the opening appears as one connected movement with a warm spicy mood: Bergamot, Caraway, Nutmeg, Pineapple, Plum, Rosewood and musk.
The inner phases are felt as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Citrus, Spicy, Fruit and Wood. The palette also extends to Musk.
Taken together Magman reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail.
