New Fragrances: Maison Martin Margiela - Replica Flower Market, Beach Walk and Funfair Evening

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
From nstperfume.com:

Maison Martin Margiela will launch a trio of fragrances for their Replica capsule line in June, although they are not expected to reach the US until next year. Replica Flower Market, Beach Walk and Funfair Evening are meant to immediately to evoke a recollection.

Perfumers Jacques Cavallier and Marie Salamagne developed the fragrances.

Replica Flower Market (shown above left) ~ With notes of freesia, rose, jasmine and tuberose.

Replica Beach Walk (shown above right) ~ Featuring bergamot, lemon, pink pepper, ylang-ylang, coconut milk, musk and heliotrope.

Replica Funfair Evening (not shown) ~ With apple, star anise and marshmallow accord (caramel and orange blossom).

Maison Martin Margiela Replica Flower Market, Beach Walk and Funfair Evening will be available in 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

Update: a description of the inspirations for the fragrances, via the Maison Martin Margiela blog:

The first is inspired by a walk in the fresh ocean air of the Corsican beach of Calvi in 1972, while Funfair evokes the sugary lightness of a Santa Monica carnival in 1994. Flower Market carries the scent of fresh cut flowers in the buckets and vases of a Parisian flower market in 2011.

Those sound interesting. MM Untitled certainly is -- with a pronounced peanuty top note, it's Replica Thai Food.

Swimming against the stream here...I'm a huge Margiela's fan but these fragrances sound awful. Will give them a chance, anyway...

Tried them all and found them extremely underwhelming, uninteresting and unnecessary (I love "un"). Any fresher opinions anyone?
