Bought it blind without hesitation; it smells lovely but lacks soul. It’s super versatile, works for everything, and I wear it daily. I do recommend it.
Smells clean, like straight out of the shower, like a good and elegant girl. Order and purity in a bottle. I tried it with a sample and it’s not my style, so I’d hesitate to buy it, but it’s so pleasant that anyone wearing it would say, ‘what a lovely scent you have’.
Miracle is a classic that never goes out of fashion, blending freshness, delicacy, and good taste. It conveys well-being and natural elegance. The best part is its balance: fresh without being watery, floral without being cloying, feminine without falling into clichés. It shines bright with that sparkly touch of lychee and peony that makes it vibrant and optimistic. It wakes you up, lifts your spirits, and wraps you in clean energy. As it evolves, soft floral notes emerge, adding elegance without weight. Everything stays airy and modern, with a soft, slightly spiced base that adds warmth without breaking its fresh character.
It was my favourite perfume between the ages of 14 and 16. I wore it to all my quinceañera parties, my first cigarettes, kisses, and makeup. It encapsulates that whole stage of my life. I haven’t smelled or bought it since; I don’t know how it smells now, but I prefer to keep the nice memories.
I love this perfume; I consider it the predecessor to Very Good Girl. Please keep it in production and on sale; many people don’t even know it or value it as it deserves.
A beautiful perfume; I can’t think of another way to describe it. It evokes happiness for me when I wear it; it’s magical. It’s only suitable for lovers of vintage florals; its notes are particular. You shouldn’t buy it blind as it’s no longer a typical floral but something more complex. I would buy it again despite the longevity not being what I expected for the price. I think it’s the perfume I enjoy using most from my collection; it really doesn’t matter if anyone else smells it, I’m happy to wear it and perceive it throughout the day. Fragrance 10/10, longevity on skin 8/10, sillage 5/10 very soft.
An exquisite fragrance. For me, it’s rather girly; I find it suitable for autumn and winter. I used it in those seasons and people were astounded by the scent. I always receive compliments and everyone wants to know what it is. I prefer citrus scents myself; despite many recommending it for spring and summer, I tell them to try it in autumn and winter, especially in cold countries like Canada, and they’ll see how good it feels. Miracle by Lancôme surprised me from the very first time. It has a fresh and luminous opening, with a spiced touch that makes it different yet delicate. It’s not heavy or invasive; it conveys energy and optimism, like a boost of good mood on the skin. As the hours pass, it becomes softer and warmer, almost like a caress. I feel it’s feminine, elegant, and very versatile: I wear it day and night without it being intense. It’s one of those perfumes that lifts your spirits and makes you feel special without exaggerating. On me, it has good fixation, lasting several hours without losing its charm. For me, it’s a scent that blends strength and sweetness, perfect for accompanying different moments. 🌷✨
Miracle by Lancôme – my personal review. The opening bursts with lychee and freesia, a luminous and soft floral-fruity combination. The freesia stands out, lending that clean and green air. If spring had an accord, it would be this. A cheerful and effervescent opening that delivers the first hit of freshness without being shrill. In the heart, magnolia and jasmine bloom, offering a classic, delicate, and elegant florality. What’s interesting is how they contrast with ginger, pepper, and mandarin. The pepper and ginger give it an effervescent, sparkly, almost spicy touch, while the mandarin refreshes the composition and keeps the dynamism. The dry down is soft and enveloping thanks to the base of musk and amber, unmistakable notes that add depth, warmth, and longevity. They allow Miracle to settle on the skin without becoming heavy, maintaining its personality until the end. The bottle is minimalist, elegant, and timeless, with clear glass that reveals the pink liquid, conveying freshness and femininity from a visual perspective. The atomiser is precise and gentle, allowing you to apply the fragrance in a controlled way, without excess or waste. A simple but functional and well-executed design. Final verdict: an optimistic, feminine, and luminous fragrance, with perfect balance between the classic and the modern. Ideal for spring, sunny days, or moments when you want to feel fresh, elegant, and natural. Although Miracle is already 25 years old, it remains absolutely timeless. Its sparkling, clean floral style never goes out of fashion: years will pass and it will always feel modern.
I agree with a previous review; it has a stinging quality that persists throughout the day. I need to give it more chances, but for now, it leaves me indifferent. I see it for spring and summer, more for day than night. After looking at several fragrances with that scent, I think it’s the lychee they have in common; perhaps that’s the note that grates on me and annoys me.
I don’t know why, but unlike other people in the comments, on my skin it turns ambered and vanilla-like, very similar to Good Girl, but with a happier and more daytime twist. It makes me want to smell it all the time; it’s hypnotic.
An original and instantly recognisable fragrance, elegant with a nostalgic touch. It feels cool and personal, like Bohemian crystal: fragile yet precious, not for everyone. Distinguished, clean, sensual but serious; more suited to those over 30, although I wore it when I was young. It’s not a night-out scent, ideal for daily wear if you want to stand out with your own voice.
Many find it normal, but for me it’s miraculous. Miracle is a smile without reason, like going for a walk with the wind messing up your hair. Unpretentious, it’s joy in a bottle: ‘Even though nothing is as I hope, I’m happy to be me’. It’s not a beast, it’s a mirror to appreciate yourself. It smells of optimism, is energetic, sharp and gives you goosebumps.
I discovered it when it first launched, very young. I fell in love with the clash of pepper and ginger with fresh mandarin. Although the lychee is sweet, the fragrance remains airy and bright. It remains a prodigy, a timeless classic for those who want to fall in love with themselves first. It’s discreet but impactful, luminous and outrageously elegant. I wouldn’t be without it.
It smells like a summer morning: fresh, clean, optimistic and easy to wear, without falling into the ‘watered-down’ trap for everyone. Miracle has its own charm; the ginger and pepper give it a spark and freshness. Perhaps it won’t be trendy, but it’s perfect for feeling scented without being intrusive. I really liked it.
Clean, floral to me. I wouldn’t judge it as citrusy or spicy. It’s a dutiful daily scent, for smelling clean. Nothing memorable or remarkable, but it performs well. For me, it’s basic, with nothing striking.
I love it; I used it a lot in the 2000s until I switched to Chloe, but I’ve returned to Miracle. It was my signature scent, I identified with it, and I’ll always have it. Ideal for daily wear, especially in spring and summer, to smell freshly showered, exquisite. They’ve tried to imitate it, but this is always better.
Totally versatile, a daily scent, fresh, clean and citrusy.
I love it; it has had many highs and I keep coming back to it.
For me, it’s a 4×4. It’s not for identification, but it always works when you don’t know what to wear. I fancy it in spring and early summer. It’s an all-rounder, fresh and citrusy, but the pepper and ginger give it maturity, moving it away from cheap colognes. It lasts a long time, especially without an atomiser. The trail is good. My husband says I smell like ‘clean oranges, eat me!’
Very clean, fresh and pleasant. Because of this freshness, it works well in summer and spring, although it suits me better in the latter, like those sunny mornings with mild heat and fresh air. It attracts men, but I don’t consider it sexy or seductive; its vibe is clean, proper and reserved.
Smells like household disinfectant, super sharp and odd. I wouldn’t recommend buying it blindly, even Lancôme’s miniatures smell better. Only if you enjoy mature, aggressive scents might you like it, but I wouldn’t purchase it again.
I think it has aged well and remains current. It’s feminine, fresh, clean, and elegant for summer. The only drawback is that on my skin, it doesn’t last long or project much.
A clean and subtly elegant aroma, ideal for work. It gives the impression that you don’t want anyone to get romantically close. It’s floral and ‘appropriate’ for any age, but it doesn’t generate attraction in me. I like the lychee note, which I’m just discovering. It’s worth it as a classic from over 20 years ago.
Very fresh and tender, with good longevity but an intimate sillage.
I met it at a sample and went crazy, shouting my name. I took a while to get it as it was discontinued. It has everything I’m looking for, but gourmands and chypres should stay away. It’s floral, citrusy without being acidic, and ginger, pepper, and tangerine take the lead on my skin. Sometimes it’s angelic, other times sensual, with an inexplicable warmth. Variable longevity: sometimes all day, other times skin scent; I don’t know why.
It’s the perfume of my life. It smells clean, fresh, floral, and refined. It’s perfect; I love it. I can’t find anything that smells as much like just out of the shower. It’s inexplicably beautiful.
I tried it in store, applied a lot to my forearm. It didn’t last long, maximum two hours, and was only noticeable if you pressed your nose to it. Initially soft floral, at the end it smells like clean soap but not of poor quality. I like the scent, but due to my pH it didn’t last at all, so I wouldn’t buy it. It’s pleasant and discreet, for daily use, not for standing out. I prefer strong, sweet perfumes that aren’t invasive.
First came the ginger, which won me over. I thought it ‘smelled like Christmas in Paris’. I used it a lot until it started to disgust me: it felt flat, conventional, and matronly, like brassy soapy roses. Surprise: there are no roses; it must be a predictable, old floral cocktail. Now I only sense the ginger as a distant afterthought. I’m moving on to Lancôme; we don’t match. We drifted apart at just under half a bottle, but it’s a classic, elegant, and usable all day.
Magnificent soapy fruits. With lychee it’s easy to fall into boredom, but Miracle saves it with the pepper and that fresh ginger that drives me mad. Subtle elegance, the best kind of clean scent. Versatile, though it reminds me of fine weather. As Natroj12 says, Miracle was here before the rest. Plus, Uma Thurman was advertising it. I can only like it.
What a beautiful fragrance! Of all I own, it’s one that conveys well-being to me. It projects without invading, lasts without overwhelming. Without doubt a classic you must have if you don’t like heavily loaded, avoindal, powdery, and very sweet aromas.
