Maison Margiela is a fashion brand that change the industry of fashion years ago due to risky concepts and otherworldly garments. In their section of fragances they are trying to recreate they famous REPLICA pieces, where if they found a piece of clothing that was really interesting, they didn’t change anything of it and just replicated it as close as the original as possible. All of this with the intention of encapsulate time and proving that what it has been tested years is good. This imaginary was selected to inspired a whole range of scents that make the consumer go back in time via the nostalgia transmitted by smells.
In special we want to talk about REPLICA When The Rain Stops, a fragrance that is trying to sum up a passing rain struck in the middle of Spring. It talks about the state of calm after a storm, playing with the sensation of rain becoming less and less present and welcome a bright light of sun.
Wet nature was the concept behing the selection of olfative notes. A mix of an Aquatic accord and Patchouli essence is what represents freshness and nature. And the feeling of bright sunlight hitting your face is constitute by a combination of Isparta Rose Petal essence and Pink Pepper essence. It creates a perfect fragrance for spring and all the times when you are needing of something that get you out of a bad or problematic mood.
