Aqua Allegoria Pivoine Magnifica Guerlain for women

I see there's a bit of confusion about the notes... I got my tester bottle today and there's written:
Floral tendre/delicate floral
Notes dominantes/dominant notes
Pamplemousse rose, pivoine majestueuse, iris
pink grapefruit, majestic peony, iris.
This is true btw- the notes listed dominate in my perception.

Middle notes: violet and peony!

My chemistry works with all the notes listed here very comfortably. At first spray the bergamot, grapefruit, and violet just splash on so deliciously I just want to bury my nose in my arm and keep it there permanently. I get waft after beautiful waft of richly succulent, fresh-fruity-floral violet delight! The magnificent peony then raises her proud blossom like a trumpet and announces herself like a radiant medieval queen on promenade waving a silk hankie in the bright sunlight. There is a lovely lingering, clean-sweetness here, but not enough to drown the initial succulence of the opening, and not enough to take this to the excess horror of a gourmand. The drydown is an elegantly cozy delight of woody-iris sensuality. This is so far my favorite of the Aqua Allegoria line and wonderfully well blended. It loves my skin and I love it! I'm heartbroken it's discontinued.

a great perfume , sweet summerdays in abottle.The violetts , grapfruits and Bergamot makes this so fresh and nice.
the drydown whit iris and blond woods is so nice to.
but to call this anything whit peony is alittle off almost to me .peony is often a little peppery sweet , but to me there is no such thing in this one.
Gental , happy , summer fragrance , puts a smile upon everybodys face .
like this one .
last a good time aswell on my skin

I love it. The smell is great: makes me feel happy, makes me smile, it's sweet and in the end it becomes like a flower- candy. I usually don't like flowery scents but this one is a winner.
Actually it's the best of flowery smells I've known :)
Stays rather close to skin but it's so so cute :)It has a good lasting power and pretty iris in the end, a bit Figue-Iris like. I've noticed Pivoine Magnifica really blooms in spring and is best to wear during warm days, that's the time pivoine becomes magnifica indeed. Have to buy it when my sample finishes, without any doubt.
Addition: my samples are almost finished, I've ordered a bottle. There's something in this fragrance, that's for sure! It's winter now and it doesn't smell its best but it's likeable too - not to mention what will happen in spring, the fragrance really blooms and is a bit candy-like. My favourite of all Allegorias I've tested so far (6 of them).

I loved the Orange Magnifica and thought this would be a good one too, but it so is not magnifica. It's quite disgusting. Chemical peppery furniture polish. I've looked at the notes it's allegedly got in it and they make no sense. It dies fast, which is good!
The box and the bottle are very pretty. If you have to buy a gift for someone you don't like, buy them this. Next time you see them, if they want to escalate the feud, they will actually wear it.
Spite bottled.

The opening of Pivoine Magnifica is screechy and disappointing-not completely artificial-smelling-but naturalistic and synthetic all at once.
Perhaps it's the violet and citrus dominating together-a mixture of sweet and tart that is off-kilter.

As the fragrance settles on my skin, the metallic and overmodern note fades, and what is left is a light floral, a gentle peony fragrance, adorned by the other notes. It continues this way for 2-3 hours, not drying down into much-maybe a touch of whatever wood fixative, combined with a gentle powderiness. This fragrance-or allegory water-is definitely weak, not meant for a signature, more of a cologne splash, per rinfrescante.

The screechy opening actually reminds me of Arden Beauty by Elizabeth Arden-a sharp but quite pleasant fresh and clean Floral Green. To sum it all up: Pivoine Magnifica is pretty, wearable, not something I yearn for, but mostly pleasant and...springy.

I went to Switzerland this Christmas and I was thinking of buying something else but instead I ended up buying pivoine magnifica.

Not a bad fragrance. I can not detect the bergamont and the grapefruit scents from it but I can sure detect the violets and iris scents. I find it soft but not sweet, in fact not sweet at all. And it has something that makes me think that it's kind of masculine (the woodsy notes maybe?).

Its longetivity doesn't last long and doesn't seem to suit me at all, as I have to spray myself every ten minutes. By the time I'll walk out of the door I won't smell it on me anymore.

But anyway, a nice floral perfume for spring-summer. I didn't regret buying it, but I guess one bottle is enough, I will certainly not go and buy a second one.

the splash o violet,adding a little grapefruits and lots of Iris!this is a sweet floral perfume(like it is mentioned).I also think it smells like a more simple version of Insolence.it should be because of violet and Iris mixture.it smells somehow like cream.
it's not very complicated.but it's nice specially for violet and iris lovers.
I'm still wondering,pivoine means peony?so then why there isn't any peony listed here in the notes?by the way I always thought I don't like peony in perfumes,but after smelling this one,I should change my mind.

Quite sweet and flowery but in a really lovely way! it is also a "happy-scent", makes me feel summery and fresh.It lasts long, and altough I am not a big fan of flowery perfumes I really like this one, and also received quite a few compliments for this one.

I am not sure it is Peony I am smelling .I didn't know they had a fragrance . Whatever is coming over to me is probably Iris . I think it is very lovely, one of the best Aquas.

The pink grapefruit is a lively, lightly sweetened opening note. Mixed with the bergamot it is quite crisp, on the verge of stingingly sharp, but then the demure, precious, violet mixes in. One trouble I often find with peony perfumes they are frequently composed suffocatingly sweet and the peony is overpowering, but, I still love peony because it truly exemplifies flowers, with itś loud color and simple scent! Following this fashion, this peony perfume is sweet, however, the peony retains natural purity,presented as a fresh flower. The peony heart here is forthright and strong, but not sickly syrupy or overpowering. (After 3 applications the sweetness did become unbearably rich). The iris in the base adds more levity and variety, and the "woodsy notes" listed could be a very gentle sandalwood and perhaps some soft white musk. The dry down is delicate and bit powdery. Although a sweet perfume, I enjoyed it! It is an invigorating, simplistic, and classicly styled floral.

Nice, Sure sweet peony, love the middle notes most. Long lasting too.
Used for one day and liked it very much.
The middle notes smelled familiar and is almost the same as Cherry Fantasy by Nina Rici on my skin, but smells bit brigther.

I like it too. Sweet peony, like candied flower, but after the sugar is gone, the flower scent is so romantic and natural!

Very sweet floral perfume. My husband hated it at first, however he loved the dry out. Me too! I think of spring anytime wearing it. I love to layer it too, as this scent is not complex and you can create complexity by mixing it with your favourite Guerlain.
