Winter healing fragrance from Maison Margiela's Replica line - By the Fireplace, a gourmand woody scent.
Top notes: pink pepper, orange blossom and clove.
Middle notes: chestnut, guaiac wood and juniper oil.
Base notes: vanilla, Peru balsam and woody accords.
First time truly falling in love with a gourmand-style perfume - it never feels cloying, instead it feels comforting and healing.
It feels like you are right inside the scene: soft sunlight streaming in, lazily curled up on the sofa in a knit sweater, wood crackling beside you, roasted chestnuts in hand with a hazelnut latte - pure cozy bliss.
Harry Potter fans will instantly recall the scene in 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone', where Harry and Ron share stories by the dormitory fireplace - a warmth and calm so different from the battles in the later books.
Comes in a 100ml bottle with original box.
