Maison Margiela Replica perfumes: ten scents grouped by mood

What Margiela Replica is

The house's first Margiela Replica pieces were garments from 1994, each with a label naming the source and the period it remembered. In 2012 the same idea became a fragrance collection. Each scent is named after a place, a moment or a mood.

That makes the line easy to browse. You do not need to read a note list first. You can ask which memory you would like to wear, then check the details below.

Every perfume here is listed as unisex, and we group them the way you would shop for them: by mood, not by rank.

Which Margiela Replica to try first

Pick by the moment you have in mind, not by the name.

• For a cold evening out, try By the Fireplace or Jazz Club.
• For a desk day in spring, try Lazy Sunday Morning or Bubble Bath.
• For a hot afternoon, try Beach Walk or Sailing Day.
• For something dark and bold, try Under the Stars.
• For a rainy walk, try When the Rain Stops.

All ten are unisex, so you can share a bottle. Our guide to unisex perfumes worth sharing has more in this spirit.

Layering two of them

The house sells the line as a set of memories, and a memory can sit on top of another one. Wear one scent on your wrists and another on your neck, then smell the mix before you commit. Our layering guide shows how to start. A 3ml gives you enough to test a pairing on skin a few times.

Try three in 3ml before you choose a bottle

You cannot smell a perfume through a screen. A decant is the small, honest way around that. If the idea is new, read what a perfume decant is, and see how to choose perfume without smelling it.

Here is a simple plan. Pick one scent from each mood, for example By the Fireplace at 8,01 €, Lazy Sunday Morning at 8,01 € and Beach Walk at 8,01 €, each in 3ml. A 3ml gives you around 60 sprays, enough to wear each one on several different days.

When one keeps pulling you back, step up to a 10ml decant for weeks of wear, around 200 sprays, or a 30ml decant to keep, around 600 sprays. We offer all ten in 3ml, 10ml and 30ml, so the choice stays yours.
