Autumn Vibes

Autumn Vibes, inspired by Maison Margiela Replica Autumn Vibes (2021)

Cardamom and pink pepper start it with an aromatic, peppery freshness, joined by coriander. Carrot seed, an earthy and faintly sweet material, and olibanum (frankincense) give the heart a resinous depth, with nutmeg for spice. Cedarwood and a damp, mineral moss accord form the base, and balsam fir adds a pine-like lift. Maison Margiela also mentions red berries and a 'red leaves' accord.

About the original

Fanny Bal created Autumn Vibes for Maison Margiela's Replica line in 2021. The brand classes it as woody and earthy and describes a forest in autumn. It is sold as a Replica eau de toilette in 100, 30 and 10 ml, and a scented candle with the same name exists as a separate home product.

Our version

Ours is an independent eau de parfum made to evoke the same character. It is not Maison Margiela stock, not an official relaunch and not the original formula.

Who it suits

As the name and the brand's forest imagery suggest, it is built for autumn. Carrot seed and moss give it an earthy, slightly damp quality that some wearers may find too vegetal.

Cardamom, pink pepper and coriander open it, aromatic and lightly spicy.

Nutmeg, carrot seed and olibanum fill the heart, earthy and resinous.

Cedar, moss and balsam fir give the drydown its woody, forest-floor character.

Is Autumn Vibes a candle or a perfume?

Both exist. This page is inspired by the Replica Autumn Vibes eau de toilette; the scented candle is a separate home product.

What does carrot seed smell like?

Earthy and faintly sweet, with a rooty, almost powdery side. In Autumn Vibes it helps create the damp-forest feel.

Is Autumn Vibes spicy?

Mildly. Cardamom, pink pepper and nutmeg are present, but the woody, mossy base is what remains.
