Editorial notes

  1. 01

    A smoky woody with roasted chestnut, Margiela's olfactive recreation of being indoors by a wood fire while the cold settles outside.

  2. 02

    Built around chestnut, smoky guaiac wood and burnt sugar. The formula's success made it the bestselling Replica entry of the late 2010s.

  3. 03

    Salamagne was already a Replica regular by 2015. She co-wrote Beach Walk three years earlier and would later compose YSL Libre.

  4. 04

    Composed by Marie Salamagne in 2015 around clove and pink pepper over a chestnut-guaiac wood-juniper heart with a vanilla-Peru balsam-cashmeran base.

The brief

Built around roasted chestnut, smoky guaiac wood and burnt sugar to recreate the memory of being indoors by a wood fire.

NamePart of Maison Margiela's 'Replica' line; each fragrance recreates a specific scene, here the warmth of a midwinter fireplace.

The flacon

Replica's apothecary-style clear flacon with a hand-labelled 'Madagascar 2009' / season tag, made to look like a lab sample.

The Curator's Note

The smell of a wood fire, sold to people who don't have fireplaces.
