By the Fireplace by Maison Martin Margiela
By the Fireplace is a fitting name for this perfume because it smells like someone put a lot of sugar and honey into a firepit and it burns until you can only smell sweetness. Although it isn't a strong gourmand, it has a strong fougere presence, giving off the distinct aroma of burning wood and fireplace bricks. Additionally, it is is quite sweet, savory, and somewhat wonderful. Although youthful, it is not overly vibrant. It has that enchantment about it and is refined, elegant, lovely, even a little conservative.

Jazz Club by Maison Martin Margiela
Jazz Club is a popular perfume. At first spray, it immediately conjures up images of a biker magazine, complete with leather, smokes, and glossy paper. Although it is unmistakably deep, smokey, and laden with warm vanilla, the lemon and pepper add a touch of sharp freshness that prevents it from becoming overly cloudy. It also has a mouthwateringly expressive scent. The initial whiffs have a faint smoke aroma that diminishes to the scent of a cigar wrapper before it is lit. Sage flicks against vanilla to counteract any dryness, and rum is swirled in a thick crystal rocks glass with a crisp and sweet flavor.

Coffee Break by Maison Martin Margiela
Coffee Break is a wonderful floral coffee perfume. The balance of this fragrance is perfect. Additionally, a significant amount of vetiver adds to its unisex appeal. It combines lactic aromas with weak coffee, lavender, and lactonic overtones. It offers the idea of a milky coffee with some pastry sitting next to it, which is roughly what Maison Margiela was going for here. The coffee accent gradually disappears and the flavor turns sweeter, but the coffee aroma is still strongly present and perceptible over time.
- Top notes: Opens with Orange Blossom, Patchouli and Pepper

Under The Lemon Tree by Maison Martin Margiela
Under the Lemon Tree is a lovely and fresh perfume that is very refreshing and soothing, like drinking green tea while daydreaming under a lemon tree. On a steamy summer day, this fragrance is appropriate to wear to work because of how calming the Green Tea Notes are. In contrast to certain lemon and lime perfumes, this one doesn't have an overbearing or cleaning supplies-like scent. This fragrance starts out harsh and energizing then settles down to musk and rose, which ground it. The little touch of coriander keeps it from smelling antiseptic despite the fact that it does smell somewhat like a very, very clean house. It is a light, summery fragrance with notes of citrus, green tea, and spicy cardamom that is neither overly sweet nor abrasive.
- Top notes: Opens with Cardamom, Petitgrain and Lime
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Coriander, Mate and Green Tea
- Base notes: At the base, Rock rose, Cedar and White Musk

At The Barber's by Maison Martin Margiela
A powerful blast of Barbasol shaving cream opens this clean and pleasant fragrance which is eventually subdued by powdery floral and herbal undertones. After a while, a vanilla undertone also becomes noticeable with a fresh shaving cream scent. As it dries, it gets better and the leather is much more visible.
- Top notes: Opens with Black Pepper, Bitter Orange and Basil
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Geranium, Rosemary and Lavender
- Base notes: At the base, Tonka Bean, Leather, Moss, and White Musk

Beach Walk by Maison Martin Margiela
Beach Walk is a perfume that conjures up visions of scorching sand on a hot summer day. The coconut and sunscreen aromas stand out the most. This will be perfect for you if you want to smell like you're lounging on a beach towel under an umbrella, sipping a pina colada, and reapplying sunscreen. It has a lovely beachy scent that is upbeat and joyous. Coconut and ylang-ylang make a wonderful mix, and this scent is ideal for summer because it is very calming in the dry down.

Flower Market by Maison Martin Margiela
There is almost a fluffy quality to Flower Market. Freesia can definitely be felt, however the pink rose is just there as background. It just smells like freshly sprayed flowers and soap, or even a flower garden after a light rain. While the floral and green notes blend well, the peach is a little difficult to place. It has a really unique aroma that is neither unpleasant nor overbearing. This smells like something a respectable Parisian woman would wear while out and about in the city. To create a more potent perfume, you can apply this fragrance over another fragrance.

Sailing Day by Maison Martin Margiela
Sailing Day is delightful, spotless, and bright. It smells like clean bedding after spending all day outside in freezing temps. In spite of this, Sailing Day plays around with the theming a little more by including some ambergris and seaweed. While none of these notes stand out particularly, they do add some novelty and distinction from other blue colognes.
