Key Features
-
The Layering Concept: While each fragrance can be worn on its own, Maison Margiela markets sets like this for "fragrance combining"—allowing you to layer the crisp, solar freshness of Beach Walk with the warm, smoky sweetness of By the Fireplace for a unique customized scent.
-
Travel-Friendly: At 7 mL each, the bottles are compact enough for purses, pockets, or travel.
-
Aesthetic Packaging: The mini bottles mirror the look of the full-sized REPLICA line, which is inspired by vintage apothecary jars, featuring cotton textile labels and unique design touches.
