Maison Martin Margiela Replica Under the Stars EDT

Description

Under the Stars is built to feel like a night in the wilderness around a campfire: crisp air, leather, and smoke under a clear sky. Perfumer Meabh McCurtin composed this REPLICA scent as a genuinely smoky, amber-woody fragrance: black pepper up top, a leather heart, and a base built on an oud infusion and labdanum.

Scent Character

• Oud: 75%
• Spicy: 25%

Translation: an intense, resinous oud-and-labdanum base carries this one, smoky, leathery, and warm, with black pepper as the only real top-note lift.
