The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021 by Estée Lauder, Beautiful Magnolia is a Floral Aquatic fragrance for women created by perfumers Anne Flipo and Laurent Le Guernec. The composition opens with magnolia petals and lotus, creating an immediate sense of freshness and purity. This floral bouquet then transitions into a heart note of gardenia and Turkish rose, adding depth and warmth. The base notes of musk, sandalwood, and cedar provide a subtle grounding effect, making the fragrance feel both light and substantial.
Beautiful Magnolia has a subtle presence that works best with multiple light sprays on pulse points. The ozonic and citrus notes are fleeting but refreshing, so it's ideal for daytime wear when you want a touch of floral elegance without overpowering others.
