When the Rain Stops by Maison Margiela captures the calm just after a shower, a fresh, green and aquatic scent. Green notes, bergamot and pink pepper form the top notes, crisp and a little sharp, with an aromatic thread that keeps the greenery lively. In the heart notes, watery accents, rose and jasmine make a damp, cool floral. Pine, moss and patchouli make up the base notes, grounding the freshness so it never turns soapy. Released in 2021 and composed by perfumer Fanny Bal, it suits men and women equally, and anyone who loves the smell of wet pavements will get it straight away. Spring and summer days are where it belongs. The longevity vote leans moderate, and so does the sillage vote, both settling in the same middle ground. Give it a spring and a summer as a 3ml decant before deciding.

The community verdict
Green notes and bergamot give When the Rain Stops a fresh start before watery notes and rose lead into pine and moss. Wear time divides between moderate and long-lasting, and projection between moderate and strong. It suits spring days best, with summer working too.
