Under the Stars by Maison Margiela, created by perfumer Meabh McCurtin and launched in 2023, is dark and resinous, built on smoke and leather instead of sweetness. Black pepper and cinnamon are the top notes, giving the opening a hot, spiced bite. A dry, woody heart follows, made of cypriol and cedar. The base notes are oud, labdanum and leather, and together they turn the scent heavy and a little smoky, the sort that belongs to night rather than day. Spice and wood carry through every stage. Both men and women wear it, usually people who like warmth with some bite. Voters reach for it in winter and autumn, and only once night falls. The community vote clearly calls its longevity long-lasting and its sillage strong, so one spray is usually plenty. If you are unsure about that density, a 3ml decant answers it quickly.

The community verdict
Dark and smoky, Under the Stars starts with black pepper and cinnamon, then settles into cedar, oud and leather. Most find it long-lasting with strong projection, though moderate is the next answer for both. Its warm, woody character fits winter nights, and autumn works too.
