Maison Margiela Replica On A Date EDT
Description
On A Date recreates a late-summer evening in Provence: ripe grapes, fresh roses, and sparkling bergamot under a sun-soaked sky. Perfumer Carlos Benaïm built this REPLICA scent around a blackcurrant-liqueur opening, a Turkish rose heart, and a woody patchouli base. The kind of scent designed to feel like the excitement of a first date going well.
