Founded in Paris in 1988 by Belgian designer Martin Margiela and Jenny Meirens, the house established itself through conceptual, deconstructed fashion. The OTB Group took control in 2002. Launched in fashion in 1994, the Replica line preceded Maison Margiela’s first fragrance, created in 2010, followed by the Replica fragrance collection, launched in 2012.

In perfumery, Maison Margiela transforms familiar scenes into olfactory memories: a fireside, a jazz club, a walk. The Replica line focuses on evocative compositions, presented in bottles inspired by apothecary jars, with a typographic label and a rope-wrapped pump.

Right now at Fragsplit, 1 Maison Margiela fragrance is available as a 1 to 10 ml decant: By the Fireplace.
