By the editors · 2 min readA cold, watery green that feels more like April rain on wet bark than blossoms in bloom. The opening brings sharp pear and damp grass, a kind of transparent freshness that suggests early morning when the park is still empty. There's something deliberately muted here, as if Margiela wanted to capture not the postcard prettiness of spring but its actual atmospheric quality—soft fog, muddy pathways, the faint sweetness of trees budding under gray skies.
As it settles, a lily-of-the-valley accord emerges alongside pale musks, but these flowers feel half-formed, still curled in on themselves. The overall effect is clean and hushed, almost melancholic in its restraint. It suits those who prefer fragrance as quiet background rather than bold statement, who find comfort in the simple ritual of a walk through damp greenery before the day truly begins.
