As good as most of the Replica line-up is, they will never eclipse or recapture the pure magic that was their 2010 limited edition. "Fart On The Escalator: Dublin 1984" was such a keen and arresting combination of animalic and green notes that I found it breath-taking.

Whispers in the Library ❤ I saw this at Nordstrom, sprayed the tester on a strip and then IMMEDIATELY on skin. It was a pleasant surprise, instant love. I asked to purchase it and they told me that they didn't have any in stock, and that it was either discontinued or Nordstrom was choosing not to carry it anymore 😢 I think the SA could see the disappointed sad look on my face and took pity on me, I should also add that I was picking up a 125ml of Herod and a 50 of TdH Eau Intense Vetiver and sampled a million different scents 😊, she asked me to wait for a moment. She returned with her manager, she greeted me very kindly and told me that since they are no longer selling Whispers in the Library that they should not have had the tester on display and apologized for the mistake. Then, to my surprise, she gave me the tester. About 85%-90% full tester of Whispers in the Library 😮. I couldn't believe that she did that, what a great trip to Nordstrom that turned into. They gained a customer for life 😊

Jazz club is by far my absolute favorite fragrance ive ever bought or tried. No contest

I've been obsessed with Lazy Sunday Morning ever since I was a kid, and finally I was able to buy it and make it my signature scent. It's definitely not for everyone, the scent is indeed clean and has a nostalgic feel. To me it smells like a bouquet of black roses in a crystal box, placed in a room with white walls. It's elegant and refined, while at the same time unapproachable, but not in a negative way. Just like a rose it's mysterious and alluring, but at the same time it has thorns. It's quite difficult to describe, but I really recommend smelling it if you ever have the chance.

Great video. I have seen this line on display so many times and have never committed to trying it so thank you for doing the work for us Omar!

The Replica line was the only higher end fragrance line I could get my gf into. She’s not into most women’s perfumes so the unisex nature of the line was appealing. Her signatures are Under the Lemon Tree and Coffee Break and man do they radiate off her skin. She just got Beach Walk and that one is becoming a great summer scent for her already. I know the brand isn’t for everyone but I have a soft spot for it because she loves it and it’s our only connection to the world of fragrances. Also this series is amazing Omar keep doing these!

i absolutely love coffee break lol i've yet to buy it but i'm glad to see you've given it a seal of approval

Thanks for an entertaining video. I have tried most fragrances by Maison Margiela. I experience them as fantasies. Just like their name. For me, they are more than designer fragrances. I really like a lot of them. I´ve Under the Lemon Tree in my collection and have used it quite a few times. I have grown up with it, and now I do think it is a fantastic and a different scent from many other Summer scents. With 2 sprays on me, it smells easily 7-8 hours on me. 9 out of 10 stars. Thank you.

Great video and I enjoyed it and I like by the fireplace and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day

I feel that sometimes when people criticize the performance they don’t realize that these are EDT formulations. They’re not going to last 8 hours bc that’s not really what they’re made to do. I def wish they’d make them EDP’s but I also feel that with Maison Margiela being a fashion designer, these are more artistic and “novelty” sort of perfumes rather than something entirely practical.

When the rain stops is awesome! Not getting the hype it deserves! Love it!

the one i have in my collection is by the fireplace, and i always look forward to wearing whenever sweater weather comes around. this one a sweater, on a scarf its just so cozy, and attractive, the initial blast of smokiness really mellows out quite fast and turns into a very pleasant blend of sweet, deep a little smoky scent. i think by the fireplace and jazz club are definitely two of their gems, where jazz club is just too boozy for my personal tastes but both are amazing. i dont like very light flowery scents or laundry ones so i dont care for a lot of the other ones in this line, but i heard 'after the rain' is nice and is one i have yet to try. matcha meditation is also worth a mention as i love matcha n sweet but i just havent bought it yet, it fades a bit too fast for it to be an easy buy for me, despite the scent itself being nice.

Matcha meditation is my favourite perfume, its sweet but not in a sickly way and smells sophisticated and feminine. I also have under the lemon trees, it is a nice scent but does not last over an hour or so.

music festival is such an interesting fragrance. When you look at reviews or ask friends etc. it seems like people perceive it COMPLETELY differently. On my skin I don't get ANY cannabis note at all and I know the smell of cannabis very well. It's a chocolately, sweet but also smoky patchoulli scent to me. Very creative and nice imo. Reading reviews on this frag is very funny to me. So many completely different takes and experiences.

By the fireplace, jazz club, and autumn vibes are my favorite from the line. I absolutely love autumn vibes.

When you look into john gallianos design ethos at margelia, it focuses on the "memory" of clothes and explores that through a lot of deconstruction and i think the fact that the fragrance line heavily reflects that is really cool and something you dont see in a lot of fragrances by designers

@ragnevi

I would totaly agree on this, some clothes from Margiela can look really cool but are really hard to wear with style. It is the same with the fragrance, if you can pull them off, they are right for you.

Sharing memories and emotions through scents it a amazing idea

I find Autumn Vibes smells very similar to Santal 33 from Le Labo. It’s sharper on the opening and doesn’t settle as nicely.

Beach Walk is my go-to in the summer. It’s currently winter in Canada and sometimes I spray and smell the bottle of beach walk to remember the summer memories: tennis, climbing up the mountain, relaxing by the beach… The best.

Great time for this video since i’ve been considering getting into the replica line

Totally agree with Jazz Club. It’s amazing, tons of compliments on it. Agree again with the drawback, doesn’t last long at all. For me, maybe 2-3 hours max. Good date night frag for sure.

My top three from MM Replica are: - Coffee break, even though I usually can’t stand lavender I absolutely adore it in combination with coffe - By the fireplace, especially in winter with a cozy sweater on (I notice people around don’t usually like it tho) - Matcha meditation, it’s good all year round honestly

I adore Jazz Club. Don't have it but It's hands down on the to buy list. It's 100% my favorite. I've head at the barbers is the best barber shop fragrance but i don't like barber shop smells. Jazz Club was literally the first fragrance i settled on getting when i decided to get back intro fragrances. I only haven't gotten it because it's summer, i'm not going out at the moment, slim chance it gets discontinued so i've got plenty of time to buy it, plus other things that could get discontinued went on sale so i got those first. And also, if i find something i want that's commonly out of stock in stock i'm grabbing it on sale before Jazz club simply because i know there's time.

Also mentioning in your Mancera video that in general they are very synthetic. I thought: "finally someone is mentioning this", after all the Mancera hype.

Of course, we can't discuss someones personal taste, but quality wise: "Hell no!". :D

Jazz Club is phenomenal. One of my signatures

I love bubble bath. I think it smells really “screechy” when applied but when dry I think it’s so perfect. I’ve gotten compliments when wearing it too, more so than other fragrances I’ve worn.

This was very helpful!

I have & recommend At the Barbers and By the Fireplace. Under the Lemon Trees and Jazz Club are excellent as well.

I love Whispers in the Library. My first Replica full bottle.

I have the Jazz Club and it kinda unique. Very interesting to the Lazy Sunday Morning.

when the rain stops is AMAZING

The only one I tried which I got a decant of was jazz club and it’s easily one of my favorite scent profiles especially date night, in cooler weather. Great opening and dry down. Wish it lasted longer but when it does last you will enjoy every minute. My brother even gave me a compliment and he’s very hard to please when it comes to colognes.

I’m a long time fan of Margiela (the clothing line) and have now gone through 2 bottles of By the Fireplace. I’ve tried a few of the others (Lazy Sunday Morning, At the Barbers and Jazz Club) but none were quite as good as Fireplace. Recommend entirely! Great video
