Miracle (for women)

badusername

I'll admit it, this is one of my mother's perfumes that she received from my sister for Christmas. It just sits there, half full as she instead uses the perfumes I've bought for her. It definitely helps to know what someone likes in a perfume, and this, no matter how delicious and spicy, apparently wasn't right for my mother.

Every once in a while, I spray myself with it to see if my impression of it changes.

And every time I'm overcome by pepper. It amuses me really, because it brings back kitchen mishaps of peppering your beefsteaks a bit too much - so much that tears almost start to jump into your eyes. For me, the pepper is that rich in this perfume.

But then the ginger and magnolia come through and take down that spicy note a notch.

Call me crazy, but this brings back memories of family BBQ gatherings under a tree, where everyone is ever so slightly drunk on wine and beer, where the mood is calm and relaxed, where fruit and salad dishes are laid out on the table, where your nephew spills his grapefruit juice all over the table as your father acts like an Italian don ... and over peppered steaks. But without that smoke coming from the BBQ!

I rather like it. It's very whimsical to me. Very fresh, citrussy and spicy. But it's unfortunate that it doesn't last very long, not on my skin or my mother's.

I love all of miracle series.I think this one was the first from the serie that I just got a chance to smell and it's lovely.
it opnes with very fresh fruity notes mixed with some floral hints the best way leading to the feminine heart of the perfume.
I should confess it becomes a bit soapy in the middle notes.it still has some fruity notes,not exactly citruses,but fresh.it's creamy like ice cream and feminine without trying to get loud.
the base notes are really love able too.still there are fruity notes slightly mixed with ginger.I can't stop smelling the paper!it's really well balanced between being floral,fruity and oriental.
it has nothing offensive,just pink and lovely like the bottle,without being a typical pink perfume.
I've found out all of lancome perfumes have some fruity hints.but they smell more expensive than them and they've shown femininity in a modern way.good work!

It's light, feminine, I would call it warm fresh because of the combination of ginger+jasmine+musk+fruit notes. Sounds interestng, but personally I would go search something else(maybe the other Miracles), as it is too ordinary and somehow very '90s. Reminded me of heart and base notes of Estee Lauder Pleasures(musky freshness).

It's an acceptable smell, meaning it's not offensive to people around you, not cloying at all, but very much lacking any backbone, any personality. The notes are too dissonant and NOT in a good way, it;s neither sweet, nor fresh, or warm. It's just a terribly impersonal perfume, uninspiring. It's a shame...

IloveDat

me too, it's one of my fav, light and feminin, totally different from other Lancome's fragrance. Love it

I tried it first when I was ten years old. I was at Danish perfume store in Copenhagen and there was this big poster of Miracle and bottle to test too. We were standing near it and then my dad grabbed the bottle and sprayed me all over with this frag. It made my day, I was very happy.
Now I didn't remember what it was like rushed through store (so damn many people today!) and tested it. I knew it has to be something I own- Just Me, many people say it's just like Miracle only I find it a bit softer and more girly.
So Miracle is just simple gorgeous. It's peppery and spicy too (I feel ginger)entangled with some not standing out magnolia. I feel musky base appear after some hours. Longevity is good. I love this one and Miracle Forever too. :D

I got this perfume last summer when I was in Paris.

The weakness of this perfume is that it does not last for such a long time as I would have imagined. It smells very light and feminine though, so if it lasted longer, it would be one of my favorites.

It is rather strong when first sprayed on, it is warm and slow release, it has a comforting, warm, motherly feel. In my opinion Miracle suits mature women.

perfumes_addict

very feminine, but i don't know why ALL lancome perfumes never last on me...in 10 minutes they are as good as gone

Monet

yeah soft and feminin, i don`t think that is a teenager fragance and also not for everyday use, at least for me.

Cris_Venesza

Yes ...it's a feminin perfume , a soft scent with a little drop of energy

guest_me

1 of my fav perfume.. feel really feminin when i spray it..

I was rather disappointed when I smelt this. I had imagined Miracle to smell slightly sweeter and more flowery, since the pretty pink bottle had misled me. Instead Miracle is a strong burst of peppered fruits, a little like spicy orange juice I thought.

In some ways it's quite sour and unpleasantly strong. I think it's one of those scents that rely on its wearer to smell good. I've smelt this on a few people who managed to make this fragrance smell softer and more flowery.

On a positive note I like that Miracle is different. The spicyness mixed with the fruits is interesting and original. This fragrance would make an excellent Summer/Spring or casual scent.

scarlett5stam

it's a great peppery and soapy fragrance ! i like it :)

Strange woman

Very feminine, classic, delicate scent. Came back to it after 4 years.

WardrobeMistress

Rather generic inoffensive floral. Really nothing special, life is too short to wear perfume as bland as this!

meala

i had it since college, if i feel feminine... i love it

solocha

I've worn it in the summer and in the winter. It is a lovely, non-confronting scent - rather feminine, soft and gentle, for romantic types of women. It smells really nice when you dab it onto your hair. It is at the same time modern and suitable for office wear or everyday.

essija

This is the perfect Summertime scent. This is a girly girl scent in my opinion. Its strong at first wiff and it actually tickles my nose at first like I'm going to sneeze, but the drydown is soft and amazing, almost too light but this is perfect for Hot Summer days... when you don't want a lot going on anyway...

flannelman

A strong, bright, fresh but also a bit generic, pink fruity floral. The lychee opening hangs on a surprisingly long time! The middle spicy notes fade out a little too quickly — I think I would prefer this less fruity/sweet and more spicy. Musk and amber base notes are somewhat weak: jasmine and rose dominate instead. Longevity and sillage are good. I see this all day, every day scent better worn by women over 35.

PolarBear2

The perfume is blehhhhhhh but the body lotion is all SEX ! What a big difference in smell. Go for the body lotion.

Millieqm

It is very nice, sweet and unique fragrance.I like it.

sniff

Very nice smell! It's mysterious bur the same time so light, sparkle!

pumpkinqueen

This perfume needs to grow on you.

On first smell its too cold and modern but when you know what it is made of and start to look out for the scents.. then it suddenly becomes bareable.

I would ever but it.. i like my perfume's first impression to be amazing.... I dont want to have to sit there sniffing my wrist for 3 days before i decide its 'ok'

Allegra

Miracle is a perfume to which I have a love-hate relationship, I just keep falling in and out of it quite frequently... It is an exceptionally powerful yet chic floral with its twisty spicy notes that can either hook you up for good or make you say a firm 'no thanks'. I see it as a modern, bold and complex fragrance for self-confident women.

kim white

This one smells really nice on me.Its been my favorite since it came out.

andreapaz2008

mmm is one of my lasted options, is heavy and strong to much floral for me.
and i like floral perfums

brickbird

This is a nice perfume. It is pleasant, enjoyable and young. It is good for modern women

azuriiita

Seven - five, (more and less) years ago, I did like it... because i can smell a nice mixture of clear flowers, so spicy, and a bit hot (pepper and ginger, i suppose)... modern, "chic" and different than others floral scents, at that time.

But... :( this became unpleasant for me¡¡¡ made me feel suffocated :( its uncomfortable and harsh... much litchi with pepper, i guess...

However, Its distinctive, and could be fine...
I must to say: i received a lot of compliments about Miracle, and i think its very suitable to work ambient :)

Kasku

Miracle is one of those fragrances that highlights an idea of being a woman. I find it very innocent. When I wear it I feel like a good person, so I quess this scent has a sense of peacefullness, contenment and goodness.

I've tried 'miracle' finally. Should agree with the description below. Though should add there were some strong sour notes in the begining, but for me general feel was of an air refreshner. Lacks depth as a perfume. I can see now why my sister wouldn't choose it for herself, and why it was chosen for her as a gift.. sort of mass produce, mass appeal, who knows

annehke

I recieved this fragrance as a gift. It
is not a fragrance I would choose for myself by the description, or the scent.
I did not recognize the fruit in the perfume, the fruit became lost in the floral. There is just a short burst of
the spices, the spice notes wear off very quickly. After drydown, Miracle seems to be rose, a pure rose perfume.
The fixation is good. It lasts a long
time after drydown as a rose scent.
It can be too strong sometimes too.

I did enjoy the perfume becasue I enjoy
floral perfumes. Also, it was a nice as a gift. I think it is a nice gift perfume because it is a non offensive, pleasing to many tastes and styles.
I also recieved the lotion. The lotion
made me itch, alot.

PR

my sister got it as a present. It is far from being one of her favorites, she says it is just alright, but she wouldn't buy it herself. I am constantly reminding to myself to try it, as I am curiuos how it smells, but her perfume bottle is almost empty, and I keep on forgeting to smell it :( and forgot about it again today:/

Flowermania

One of my current favourite perfumes. I love the initial burst of this fragrance. Its a fresh feminine floral. Unfortunately it doesnt last too long

imgcas

This was my first perfume and still one of my favourites. It's spicy and different from other mainstream fragances. My boyfriend loves it too. I think this is "my perfume" but I'm a little disappointed because I think Lancome has recently reformulated it. When I smell my "five years old" Miracle you can smell pepper in it, but now when I smell Miracle testers in drugstores and department stores I only get something citrusy in the opening. ¿Where are the pepper and the ginger now?
Anyway, I love the scent that is inside my "old" bottles. It's unique.

mari85

I love, love, love miracle! I love the pretty spicyness mixed with flowers, and the first burst of litchi is just delightful. Definitely an uplifting scent:)

liat

I recieved a bottle of Miracle a few years back when I was in my early 20's. I didn't like it very much. It was too spicy and way too assertive for a young woman.
Recently I've had the chance to re-think my dislike, as I smelled it and the impression was totally different.
It starts off so assertively with fresh and spicy notes; you almost don't notice the gentle floral heart. But once it settles, it's a decent, assertive, very sexy floral.

aroma-ga

i bought this perfume, but now i don't like it. it's too heavy for me

joybee88

This was my first perfume as a teenager. Then on a trip my friend was using it and it reminded me how I loved it so I bought another and still using~~~
But I can't wear it all the time cuz the smell gets a little annoying for my nose.

flora

This used to be my favourite smell. I still like it but not as much as before. When you first spray it, its quite flowery, but after awhile it kind of settles into this beautiful scent. I had lots of compliment on this perfume. Definitely a must have for those looking for everyday use!

soirdelune

I agree with others here: was given this as a gift and was quite convinced I didn't like it. But, it grew on me little by little, and soon became an everyday, professional scent. Very pleasant, in fact!

LCadorniga

Was a bit too heady for me at first. When I got a bottle of it for Christmas, I started to use for everyday and it sort of grew on me. Liked the musk part of it, lingers and gives off that mysterious vibe.

sophywt

Used to think it's too floral sweet, makes me headache. But last month I tried it again and sort of change my mind. I sense the chic fruity notes which I ignored before.

Chaosnmotion

Good professional scent, not to busy. Okay but not one of my top picks.
