Escada Magnetism for Men (for men)

Very delicious fragrance. I get a cola-type note when wearing it. Sensual, masculine and feminine at the same time? hmmm

I rate this one in the top 10 out of approximately 100 fragrances I own. I see the notes listed but I believe that they are missing a few.

The sap from the tolu balsam of Peru is used in Magnetism. The dried resin has cinnamon and vanilla accords, which in combination, produce a floral note. Also included is pink pepper and saffron. When combined with the sandalwood and cedar, I get a red wine essence along with the floral note mentioned above. In the drydown, I get a soft amber and leather.

In my opinion, this is a high quality, romantic fragrance. Some here say it is for casual attire but I wear it with a suit at the office. It is definitely different from the fresh aquatics, citrus based fragrances, and heavier amber based offeringss that dominate the market. I highly recommend that you try it.

I usually compliment my colognes with a body splash using a couple of spritzes on the shoulders, chest, back, and wrists. For Magnetism I use Japanese Cherry Blossom body spray. The combination is simply awesome. Say what you want about Japanese Cherry Blossom not being masculine...blah, blah, blah. Most body splashes are unisex and in such a weak concentration that they never dominate anyway. Trust me guys, the ladies will want to eat you up when wearing the aforementioned combination.

After 1 full wears of this one I think I grow bored of it. Too one dimensional to me. But then I wear it again tonight and love it again. For me, this one has really good sillage, my friend sitting on my motobike tell me she can smell this scent like 5 times which never happen to any of my fragrances before.

This one is classified as oriental-woody, but thank god it is not smoky at all. Well I would say that it is oriental balsamic, because it is very "oily": when I smell it I think of some nice indian essential oils like sandalwood, pepper oil and vanilla. It smells rich, it stays also close to the skin, but still long lasting. It is an oriental, but it is great in spring or summer nights rather than winter nights, because it also has some tropical notes which smell good when it is warm weather outside: I imagine myself on a beach with a cola cocktail or eating a nice ice cream.

It's so true about the cocacola effect of this one. I wish the strong "gas cocacola" effect that you get right from the beginning of this scent could stay longer. The dry down smell kinda like Cacharel's Amor Amor for women, softer and more masculine though. IMO, this can be worn year round and in any occasion. This is so inoffensive and enjoyable. I've seen some comparision to Le male and A*men here and there which I have to strongly disagree. Le male and A*men are food, cake sweet which to me is "for winter only". This one however is soft-drink sweet which can be worn in any season. It's really hot at my place today and this "coke-feel" scent really shine.
Really nice!

Yes, it's casual AND a good scent.
Magnetism gets the atention of whomever happens to be around. An elegant and misterious scent. In one word: SEXY.

If you use it wisely - no more than 2 sprays - it won't overpower the olfactive glands of the passers-by. Think on how Joop! Homme, even being delicious, is a burden when it comes to this issue. And even without being overpowering, longevity is excellent: much more than 5 hours on me with those 2 sprays.

Its diet cola-like smell must be my favorite gourmand. More wearable and well-finished than A*men. In the drydown the Light Coke gets woody and sandy. I've realised that women tend to like sweet scents on men, and I think the reasonable ones would prefer Light Coke to dirty brownies. (Hm, I hope no cereal bar scent appears during my lifetime.)

That's why Magnetism is becoming bit by bit my favorite night time perfume.

why the men escadas are so casual? why the women escadas are so fantastic and mens not? why?...

the botte is nice but the smell is for me just another masculine sweet smell... with nothing special - memorable in it...

If I were to dissect Magnetism into its component notes, I'd say just about all I smell is wood and vanilla. Doesn't sound very creative, but Magnetism is a very unique men's fragrance. After the woody/peppery top notes fall off, it really mellows out, blends in with the scent of my skin and is very discreet. Just like Equipage, Signoricci and Monsieur de Givenchy, it's one of those fragrances you don't really "smell" on another person but rather catch the essence of when he or she walks by. These have always been my favorite type of fragrances, and Magnetism is an excellent fragrance.

Very sexy and my girlfriend likes it. She has Magnetism for women so we match. It's kind of powdery and sweet and it's long lasting.

Fragrance of Escada Magnetism is so mysterious. It changes surprisingly after a dry-down as might have an unliking impression (for some people) at first spray due to an intense blast of pepper and saffron; My wife found it a perfect match with my body chemistry. And the words were hard to find for her to express the feel of this fragrance when mixed with my body odour; She expressed.. "So romantic! It’s not just a perfume it’s a magic hidden in fragrance bottle".

The aphrodisiac fragrance (note: SCHINUS) for spreading an initimate romantic aroma. Lasts 5+ hours, great sillage and a moderate fragrance that is most suitable for evening / night ROMANTIC wear but not bound to.

Stand out of all other very average Escada men scents, this one, so special, attractive, so ascentric, so thrill, so sexy. It's good for night time, totally useful when you get into a bar, someone'll be watching you, believe me.

in the beginning it's quite feminine and smells like champagne. it reminds me of cavalli for women. it is sweet but as time goes by it becomes unmistakably masculine. great for nights out. too sweet & dark for the office

ticalau

Shyhim

Yeah I love it, esspecially after few moments after taken it on. A little bit feminine.

Excellent scent. Smells a little feminine at first, but as you wear it, it becomes a little more earthy and spicy. Great anytime, day or night.
