Well, I need it for a title. 'Perfect crime' is too widespread. So I was thinking about magnificent crime or excellent crime. The thing is, I 'googled' it and didn't find magnificent/excellent crime combinations. That's why I am wondering if it's correct

Perfect crime suggests that you think the crime was very well planned and executed.

Magnificent/excellent suggest that you approve of the crime, ie these adjectives suggests a moral judgement.
