‍

Guests are welcomed by an interactive digital screen, alongside an olfactory bar of REPLICA fragrances. When a bottle is picked up, the screen bursts into vivid imagery that perfectly captures the fragrance. This immersive experience transports guests into the ambiance, mood, and emotions evoked by the scent.

Progressing further into the boutique, guests are invited to a personal, memory-evoking journey as they explore the full display of 16 REPLICA fragrances on a stunning island pedestal. Moreover, a beautifully arranged REPLICA discovery wall showcases the iconic range, each accompanied by a key visual representing the memory or emotion of the scent. The captivating stories of each fragrance invite lingering moments, reliving significant memories, whether solitary or shared with loved ones.

Introducing From the Garden

‍

The latest Maison Margiela Replica fragrance, From the Garden, evokes the joyful feeling of reconnecting with nature. Exclusively crafted by master perfumer Olivier Cresp and his son Sebastien Cresp, the creation encapsulates a precious bond shared over the years.

‍

“From the Garden evokes a memory that I share with my son," shared Olivier Cresp, “Like a family heritage. My father made me smell the garden plants, and I did the same with my son. These earthy and greenery notes remind me of those moments of transmission and complicity.” ​

‍

With each note, From the Garden unfolds like a fragrant hymn to life's simplest joys. Inspired by a crisp, sunny afternoon in a blooming garden in Puglia, Italy, it captures the enchantment of hands delving deep into the soil, harvesting ripe tomatoes. With its juicy, bright, and tangy notes of 'Tomato Leaf accord" combined with Green Mandarin notes, it reflects the ripeness of freshly harvested fruit. Geranium essence, with its floral and aromatics accents, recalls a luxuriant garden. And with its slightly damp, moisty inflections, Patchouli essence evokes the earthy scent of soil that subtly lingers on one’s hands after gardening.

‍

From the Garden is available at the Maison Margiela Fragrances Boutique located in Greenbelt 5, Makati City. Embark on a sensory voyage when you visit the new boutique, open Sunday to Thursday from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and Friday to Saturday from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
