Maison Margiela Replica On A Date Eau De Toilette 30ml

This On A Date EDT is a new release. It is a quality fragrance that wears for hours without being “cloying” or overpowering. The bottle is aesthetic that looks and feels luxurious to use. On A Date is a lovely, fruity floral scent with a touch of bergamot and patchouli that sadly doesn’t mesh well with my body’s natural smell. That said, I’d recommend you try this if you’re looking for a high quality, black currant-forward fragrance. It did arrive with a non-functioning sprayer that couldn’t be repaired. I unscrewed the lid to apply the perfume to my wrists that way. Will buy a sprayer to decant it into. Full transparency: I received this for free in exchange for my honest review.

This fragrance is, and i quote my father who usually doesn’t like perfume, “beautiful”. One thing I love about the replica brand is how all of their scents seem to be directly extracted from what they are made after. There is no overwhelming sense of “perfuminess” or alcohol that you can smell from it. They produce scents that are very pure and natural. To me, this scent in particular is very bright, clean, sophisticated, happy, and floral. It reminds me of replica’s springtime in the park, with a bit of an edge. If I was gifting this to someone, i would give it to a person who liked the scents Miss Dior, Acqua di Gioia, and springtime in the park. I would also probably gift it to someone over the age of 15, because it is a little mature for someone younger, yet ... MoreThis fragrance is, and i quote my father who usually doesn’t like perfume, “beautiful”.

I would also probably gift it to someone over the age of 15, because it is a little mature for someone younger, yet it’s lemon notes give it a youthful undertone. I would wear this on a day date (like to the farmers market or on a picnic), during the spring (it would pair beautifully with a long white sundress) or to a brunch.

Packaging: I like the design on the front and the sticker label. It looks vintage yet clean. The box itself is just fine. I like the cardboard inside the box that holds the fragrance and prevents it from moving around in the box. It doesn't have a cap which is super inconvenient considering this is the travel size. You would have to keep it in its original box. Fragrance: The fragrance is just fine. It smells like any perfume you might have smelled in a magazine. There's not too much about it that feels special. It's a good everyday perfume though. It's not very strong or overpowering. 3 sprays is around what you need. Fragrance longevity: it lasted the entire day into the next and didn't change any time between. It smells the same on the second day as it did at the ... MorePackaging: I like the design on the front and the sticker label. It looks vintage yet clean. The box itself is just fine.

Price: It was very hard to find the price online since I got this through influenster. The only price for the 30 ml I could find is on Sephora for $93 CAD. At this price, I would not rebuy.

I received this product incentivized for review. I’m typically really not a fan of floral perfumes, especially those with rosey notes as I’m not generally a fan of the smell. While this perfume still isn’t a favorite of mine, I was actually impressed by how the smell got once I put it on. While still a bit too rose heavy for my liking, it was also surprisingly sweet and fresh smelling. I put one small spray on my wrist and rubbed it in my neck after and was shocked at how strong it was and how long it lasted. I even tried showering eventually to get it off because I’m not huge on smelling the same thing for THAT long and, as I said, it isn’t one of my favorite scents. It somehow outlasted the shower as I came out still smelling faintly of rose (thanks, unscented ... MoreI received this product incentivized for review.

It somehow outlasted the shower as I came out still smelling faintly of rose (thanks, unscented soap). While not something I’d typically gravitate towards, I could definitely see this being great for someone into rose scents and wants something that’ll last all day long. I’ve using it a couple times since, trying to spray as little as possible, and it is still strong and long lasting every time. While that isn’t a trait I love, I know people get frustrated with short lasting perfumes and I think this would be incredible for someone looking for a strong scent to last all day. To top it off, the bottle is super cute and the amount is generous given there really isn’t a need to re-apply it in a day. Giving it 4 stars because while it would be lower for me personally (again, hater of roses), I can see it being amazing for people into floral scents and it’s one of the few rose perfumes I’ve smelled that I’d want to be around someone wearing.

So, I was pretty excited to receive this perfume from Influenster because I don’t own any perfumes from Maison Margiela. Although the perfume is supposed to be roses and grapes, it could smell medicinal to some (depending on what kind of scents you like). I like a more light, floral, fruity scent but I don’t think this perfume is entirely my type nor does it smell all like roses and grapes It’s not something I’d spray like 5 sprays of because it is verrry strong. Initially it does smell like a mature old lady scent. A couple sprays will last you an entire day plus it’ll linger the next day. For me personally I’d do one spray of this and do a couple spritz of other perfumes to kind of balance out the strong concentrated scent. Alone I think it may be too much and a ... MoreSo, I was pretty excited to receive this perfume from Influenster because I don’t own any perfumes from Maison Margiela.

i really liked this scent! i was surprised reading the “grapes and roses” description on the label but immediately i picked up on it. it does have a bit of a powdery scent (which many label as “old lady scent” but in my opinion, this perfume doesn’t go too heavy on it). almost immediately after spraying on skin, the black currant note comes through and it works so well with the grape. it dries down to a very subtle sweet musk smell. i love this perfume, but unfortunately it really doesn’t have the lasting power you’d hope for with a fragrance at this price point. i like to deliberately spray it on my clothes (which could be controversial LOL) to make it last a bit longer. overall, if you’re looking for something light and are willing to splurge, this is an option!

If your date is less than an hour, this is for you.

I love me some red wine and sparkling and upon reading the initial run down of notes for this frag I was ecstatic. However after buying this frag and trying it out, I really didn't understand the hype. For an EDT literally at EDP pricing, I was Expecting Margiela to come through.Yes it smells like Grapes and Sparkling Rosé, but the Longevity and complexity of this formula was disappointing. Initial Spray to Dry down literally 1 hour. I'm not even kidding.If the 'Date' you're about to go on is gonna be 1 hour, then boo boo this scent if for you.If you're looking for a Rosey Wine scent, I'd highly recommend you check out Liquides Imaginaires - BLOODY WOOD. It's EDP and is a BEAST for Projection and Longevity!

My favorite perfume. Ever.

This perfume is everythinggggg. What I love about it is how sweet, floral, and fresh it is. It reminds me of spring, but I would wear it for winter, spring, or summer. It is similar to replica springtime in the park, which I also love, but has more of a cozy warmth to it. It is also very natural smelling, as if the scents were directly extracted from their natural sources and no alcohol or additives were added to create the perfume. It is one of those scents that I never get tired of- i have even worn it to bed! I would recommend this perfume to anyone over the age of 15 that wants to feel beautiful in a light, feminine way. The one thing about it is that it usually lasts about an hour, but I always keep it on me to replenish. Plus, when I do respray it throughout ... MoreThis perfume is everythinggggg.

Also, on other people’s opinion on the fragrance, I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. Even my dad, who has a sensitive nose and is usually not a fan of any fragrance, called it a “beautiful scent”. Would repurchase and recommend!!

Very nice, gives luxurious vibes

I’ll give this perfume a solid, 4, maybe a 3.5.For the price, it doesn’t last very long. I do understand it’s an eau de toilette but it really doesn’t last even up to a few hours.However, smell is so lovely. I’m only in my early 20’s but this perfume makes me feel like a woman. I love the scent so much.From the original first spray, you get lots of grapes. Then as it melts on to your skin, it turns into a musky rose garden—truly lovely. (My siblings did mention it kind of smells like moth balls, though).I think if you are to layer this, it lasts longer so it could be worth the price. Perhaps if you should buy the smaller one rather than jumping the gun and spending $160, impulsively.Overall, I do love it. It makes me feel quite satisfied.

Would not be my first choice

I was super excited to try my first Maison Margiela perfume when I received it free from Influenster in exchange for an honest review. The bottle is cute but morning fancy (I definitely have cuter/prettier bottles), and I did hear from a lot of other product testers that their sprayers either came broken or broke soon after. My first impression of the scent was very strong rose, which is one of my least favorite scents and overpowered any of the fruity notes. Reminded me very much of something my grandmother or other older women would wear, which definitely isn't what I want to smell like. The overpowering rose did fade after about 45 minutes and more of the fruity notes came through, and I barely noticed the rose after that. Unfortunately I don't feel like it lasts ... MoreI was super excited to try my first Maison Margiela perfume when I received it free from Influenster in exchange for an honest review.

Unfortunately I don't feel like it lasts very long, no more than 6 hours with 2-3 spritzes (wrists, neck pulse points, and hair). I really wanted to love this one, but sadly it wasn't what I had hoped for. I'll still wear it occasionally because my boyfriend likes it and it's a shame to waste perfume, but definitely wouldn't buy it in the future.
