![]() I’m bummed that Rashna’s claiming this one, but maybe if we rotate days, I can also wear it. I’m also reminded of patinated leather interiors of a classic car, which brings a smile to my face. I’m a cocktail guy and I get a pop of rum in every waft, as Maison Margiela intended. (Credit, in part, the styrax for some of the leathery, balsamic aromas.) And I love it. Sean’s review: This is very similar to By the Fireplace, with rich, woodsy, and smoky undercurrents. It’s definitely a masculine scent, but the more feminine notes of vanilla and orange rise over time so it’s one I love.” ![]() ![]() It’s very clean, though I’d say it skews older. ![]() I grew up in England and one whiff of this takes me back to a British pub. Rashna’s review: “I feel like I’m nestled in a tufted leather Chesterfield loveseat, listening to a jazz trumpeter riff. The melding results in an olfactory experience of an intimate cocktail lounge. Maison Margiela Coffee Break from the Replica line is currently available at Sephora and Nordstrom.Masculine - One of Maison Margiela’s most popular Replica scents, Jazz Club has base notes of Styrax, tobacco leaf, and vanilla, punctuated by top notes of lemon, pink pepper and Neroli (orange bitters). I’m so curious if you have tried this fragrance and if so, what was your opinion of it? Let me know in the comments or on Instagram. I have had several fragrances that I did not like in the past and then try them in the future and they were wonderful. Sometimes as our skin chemistry changes then fragrances can smell differently. I’ll probably try this out again in a different season and see if it smells differently on me then. Apparently some people do smell coffee and pastries in this. I’ve also read similar reviews after I tried this that had the same opinion,so I know I’m not alone in my experience of this fragrance. I was so excited for this, and then disappointed once I smelled it because I didn’t experience the coffee scent. I definitely recommend testing this one in person before buying. If you are just wanting to capture the scent of your coffee pot brewing in the morning, or have the nice scent of coffee or pastries around you in a soft cloud, this isn’t that, in my opinion. If you are looking for a fresh, masculine leaning scent that stays around then this might be your thing. The scent seemed to stay in the room where it was sprayed for a couple days even though I only used one small spray. My husband didn’t really like it either because it was so strong and he doesn’t wear fragrance very often anyway. It smelled fresh, and I think the lavender could have been making it come off as masculine, but it was not a smell that smelled good on me at all. I really only smelled a strong men’s aftershave scent. It doesn’t smell anything like coffee or a room where coffee is brewing at all, on me. I somewhat expected a Gourmand creamy smell of coffee with hints of lavender, but what I actually smelled was nothing like my expectation or the description. The notes are just that: Lavender, Coffee, and Milk. The scent is officially described as immersing you in the ambience of a cafe with the scent of roasted Arabica beans, lavender garnished desserts, and frothy creamy milk. I was immediately drawn to it since coffee is one of my favorite smells of life. I love coffee and one day while browsing Nordstrom Fragrances online I saw this Fragrance by Maison Margiela Replica in Coffee Break, and thought I’d try it out since it was new.
