Maison Margiela Replica Beach Walk Fragrance Review

I have another perfume review for you. I was actually sent this fragrance a few weeks ago and figured why not do a full review on it?! I know summer is coming to a close; however, it is not over yet, and there have been so many new summer fragrances I have been loving this year. Why not wear a summer fragrance up until October? Nothing wrong with that.


Notes:

The vibrant and sunny memory of a walk along a sandy beach. Wrap yourself in memories of sunny summer days at the beach: rays of the sun warming your skin, hot sand beneath your feet and the fresh and salty breeze of the ocean. The summer scent of sunscreen transports you to a summer vacation memory. Pure, sunny & joyful. Listen to the lapping of the waves and inhale the warm, salty breeze. Beach Walk makes you relive the vibrant and sunny of a walk along a sandy beach. With radiant notes of bergamot and ylang-ylang, Beach Walk perfume evokes memories of summer days spent on sandy beaches. Notes of coconut milk and musk envelop you in the warming sensation of sun-kissed skin. This sunny and invigorating Eau de Toilette is part of the Replica collection by Maison Margiela. A fragrance that reminds you the scent of sunscreen, the salty taste of the ocean and feel the hot sand under your feet.


Key Notes:

Top:

  • Bergamote

  • Lemon

  • Pink Pepper

Middle:

  • Ylang Ylang Essence

  • Transluzone

  • Heliotrope Accord

  • Coconut Milk Accord

Base:

  • Cedarwood

  • White Musks

  • Benzoin Resinoïd


Longevity:

I would say this perfume lasts all day long. I can still smell it by the end of the day. I would say this perfume lasts at least 8 hours. The longevity of this perfume is truly amazing. I have not had a perfume last as long as this perfume does. The bergamot, lemon and pink pepper are the strongest scents. I don't really get that much of the middle or base notes. The coconut milk and white musks are in there very softly and subtly.


Projection:

This perfume has a strong projection. It is very strong when you first spray it, and then it just lasts on your skin the entire day. People will be able to smell this perfume on you. I have had many people say they can smell this fragrance on me 1, 2 or 6 hours after spraying it on me. It's not obnoxious in any way, more like a fresh scent. This perfume does not stay strong all day long. It is strong at first, then it has a warm, subtle dry down.


Value:

This fragrance is a little pricier than I originally expected it to be when I saw the price; however, it is a classy designer brand, with lots of success. I have never tried this brand before, and I must say, I am very impressed. This brand focuses on photo realistic scents based on location, period and description that is written on the bottle. Their goal is to have you totally engulfed in that time and place when you spray their fragrance on you. No other brand out there does this. That is why I believe this fragrance brand is unlike any other fragrance brand out there.


Scent: 9/10

Longevity: 10/10

Presentation: 10/10

Projection: 10/10

Value: 10/10

All in all, I highly recommend this perfume. The perfect scent for one last trip to the beach before fall gets here. Like I said, I believe you can wear this scent all the way until October. It's just that good. You need to add this one to your perfume collection.

Xoxo,

Chey
