Maison Margiela ‘REPLICA’ Jazz Club
THEY SAY: “The daily details… yes, I love a male fragrance ??”
ON THE BOTTLE: “Jazz Club immortalises the masculine and exhilarating ambiance of a Brooklyn jazz club. The balmy base scent of musk, vanilla, tonka bean, vetiver, and tobacco leaves combine to evoke a familiar but forgotten moment – a night’s sojourn to a hidden jazz club.”
