Miracle by Lancome

For: women Designer: Lancome Olfactive Group: Floral
Video

This fragrance can be exactly described by two words: energy and revelation. The beauty lies in living, in maintaining interests, in seeing and cherishing every second of life as a miracle, and in the ability to start all over again. Uma Turman is the face of Miracle – a beautiful and wonderful woman able to walk both on the air and on solid ground.

Miracle is modern, oriental fragrance with fruity opening (litchi); slightly spiced flowery heart (magnolia, jasmine, ginger and pepper); and powdery base of musk and amber. Launched in 2000.

The noses behind this fragrance are Harry Fremont and Alberto Morillas.

This is probably not my favourite, but there's something about it that makes me identify myself with this fragrance.I'd say it's a nice balanced litchi/flowery blend, and on me the scent appears to be just "right". It is very feminine, not overpowering, delightful. I don't smell much spices tho.
Apart from some other perfumes, I don't find any strange notes in it, it doesn't annoy me, and I don't feel the scent that much during the time I put it on: the scent is usually hidden somewhere and then I get whiffs of it at times, and I like it that way.
I would recommend to try this one.

I always wanted to try this one, and recently a couple of people recommended it to me as a present for my friend. I looked at the notes and got cautious. Litchi? Didn't seem to work for me. Ginger? I was looking for a gift for my friend who's a floral girl. Pepper? That can get obnoxious. But when I tested it on my skin, my doubts were gone. Despite the listed notes, this fragrance is not sharp and not spicy. It's light, it's bright, it's very nice. I am not intimidated by ginger -- if there's ginger there, it's ginger ale with a lot of sparkle and with no burn. My friend is getting it and if anyone gets me a bottle, I'm not turning it down.

My baby sister wore this on her wedding day. Beautiful on her and I love the smell but not for me I'm afraid. Doesn't work with my body chemistry. She now wears Chanel Chance and it is the same story.

This is a beautiful fragrance!!! ;') The notes blend well together and blossom harmoniously on the skin. This isn't as heady as I thought it would be based on the reviews here. It is spicy but not annoyingly so. I really, really like and it plan on getting a bottle. ;') HArd to resist considering it has so many notes that I love. This is strong when first sprayed but not at all overpowering. This could be worn in the winter as well as the summer. REcommend it to those looking for a great everyday scent that is anything but typical and average.

Lancome's MIRACLE opens in a somewhat confusing way: I smell a mingling of flowers and ginger with the texture, not the taste, of a lychee. The squeaky feeling when you bite into a lychee is a unique experience and combined with a slight muskiness and magnolia--well, I have to say that this fragrance is one of a kind!

Magnolia is the dominant floral here, to my nose, but I would hesitate to characterize this as a floral scent, not only because of the slight sweetness imparted by fruits, but also because the early stages are relatively shortlived, and the drydown is entirely dominated by musky pepper.

Overall, I'd say that MIRACLE is probably my favorite gingery-lychee-textured magnolia-musky-pepper fragrance. (-:

Amazing fragrance, one of the few (beside Cristalle) I both more then 3 times. When I went to a party people who were talking to me always had to interrupt me with 'My god, what are you wearing, you smell fantastic!' I think that says enough... .

I used to wear this fragrance a about 7-8 years ago, and I was receiving many compliments when wearing it. But with time, I realized this fragrance just wasn't "me". Miracle makes me think of a young, very confident and modern professional woman. I don't know why, but I specifically think of this kind of woman when smelling Miracle. To me, it's a very modern fragrance -- just not me.

This one smells like some sort of chemically, cleaning spray to my nose. Very artificial. I don't like it at all, not the pepper, not the litchi not the ginger... smells very plasticky on me... A big scrubber, sorry

This is so nice! I wouldn't say that Miracle is unique, but it sure is beautiful. I LOVE musk, and this is a musk lovers perfume. Miracle is a beautiful, feminine floral musk. Its a sparkling, bright scent. This also last for a very long time and has great sillage. I have said in the past that i dont have an everyday perfume, but i believe this is an amazing everyday choice. Miracle can be a good-taste-jeans-and-t-shirt-scent, a professional scent, or a date scent! i definitely recommend this!

The dry down really smells like one of my all time favorites: SENSI!

I am not usually fond of ginger notes in my fragrances...but they did a good job in making sure it doesn't overpower the fragrance with Miracle, it is a very toned down spiciness, and I appreciate that alot. I really like this fragrance, simply because it is so versatile, I can use it anytime and anywhere and it suits all occasions...this fragrance can be playful or elegant, casual or professional. It's quite fool-proof. While it's not on my 'top favorites' list, the scent is very pleasant and romantic, not too strong and not too subtle, silage is just right and lasting power is pretty good. It smells much better on my skin than it does from the bottle, less ginger-y/pepper-y and more flowery/sweeter/friendlier. It may not be a very interesting fragrance but it isn't boring or plain either.

I purchased this for the first time seven years ago, it was a time in my life when I was hoping for big changes, miracles and great earthquakes of destiny... they didn't happen, but I loved the perfume and its name.
Who does not want to believe in miracles?
Last week I was with my husband in duty free sniffing stuff, and he said:"you smelled like this, when I first met you!" Must have been true, the time frame sure coincides. He decided on the spot to purchase this for me!

What can I say: I have the edp now, and I love it, once again! I don't really understand the lukewarm reviews, I find this an amazing, pleasant and so versatile offering from Lancome!
The edp ( before, I had the edt) is deep and lovely, and very spicy to my nose. I pick up pink roses and pepper, and while slightly agressive at first, it turns out mellow and sweet- spicy very soon. My skin tends to eat up perfumes, but this one lasts well and gives off a lovely projection. One of the few that actually got me compliments.
Maybe not a blue blood perfume, but very pleasant in its own right!

I find this perfume very successful. I must say that it's a unique mixture with unexpected notes . It's innocent and attractive at the same time.
Men love it's flowy style.
It's a classic now i think. İf you haven'T tried it by now, i think you should. at least once :)

At first peppery and sweet, strong. Later balmy, musk, floral, melting.Gives similar sensation as Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean.

I`m not floral type but this one has got me from first sniff. Miracle is feminine, sensual, spring time frag. Not for everyday wear.

Distinct from other florals.
Unusual, profound, mystic.
Highly recommend this one!

This is really innocent/girly/ROMANTIC/sooo sexy ALL at the same time! I think this is a lovely ROMANTIC scent, yet Lolita-sexy. Oh, and the bottle is really in that perfect pink shade! Can`t resist buying it over & over again! It was, and still is, crazy popular here in Sweden. & every girl Had and still has it! And I really understand why, it`s simpley *** irresistible ***! Miracle enchants with such a magical pink blend. * THINK PINK *

This is by far the most bizarre fragrance Ive ever encountered.

the Zesty, Zingy citrus notes remind me of kitchen spray and I can imagine myself spraying Lancome Miracle onto stove and tabletops rather than on myself.

Judging by the pink bottle I expected a more floral scent, but was sorely mistaken.

Dont get me wrong, I dont hate this fragrance, but my friend smelt this on me and thought Id applied a citrus scented cleaning product.

This one of the first "grown up" fragrances my daughter used. I always loved the clean floral scent. I use it often, day/night, casual/special. A nice one for any age. It's one of those rare ones that you can dress up or down. It's become a staple on my vanity. It's long-lasting but never overpowering and it's a rare floral that doesn't overpower in a hot humid climate like south Florida.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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...

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.

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'

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.

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 :)

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

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.

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.

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.
