I’m not gonna lie, I first heard of Maison Martin Margiela 10 years ago when Kanye West mentioned it in a song. They have the most amazing aesthetic so I’ve been watching the brand ever since! When they made their debut into Sephora via fragrances, I went above and beyond to test them out. They’re not offered at every Sephora so keep that in mind in case you decide to visit your nearest store.
I personally think their scents are super classic and everyone can find a signature scent within their whole collection. And what I love most is that they aren’t your regular, typical fragrance…they all have a backstory and are meant to capture a moment in time. For example, their scent Lazy Sunday Morning is literally supposed to remind you of a relaxing, lazy, warm, Sunday morning. It’s a very light scent that will remind you of fresh linens, freshly washed and lotioned skin, with a hint of fresh flowers. Perfect scent to spray your sheets if you feel like being bougie and being enveloped in a luxurious calming fragrance.
Other scents they have are:

Whispers In The Library: the cousin of ‘By the Fireplace’ and ‘Jazz Club’. It has notes of pepper essence blending into a soothing tonka bean absolute and bewitching Vanilla, inspired by the memory of a day surrounded by beautifully old books. Link

I would honestly recommend trying the rollerball out or one of the mini sets before splurging on the full sized perfume because they are kinda pricey. The full sized prices range between $126 and $180.
