Short-lived fun
Like any Margiela fragrances in my opinion, they are overrated. I was very excited to try one of the most popular summer cocktails as a scent, only for it to disappoint after like 10 minutes.

It starts off very promising, truly like an Aperol Spritz, bitter with zingy orange rind, a little spicy and earthy. But after it fades it just becomes this generic orangey-patchouli thing that im not into, the dry down just smells like Orange x Santal to me which I find okay but boring, its nice but nothing new or exciting. If you look at it from another POV though it smells a little like earl grey with a punch of lemon and orange which is fine. Not worth my money though.

Bright summer orange
Opens with a bright orange scent and then quickly adds in spices and tea. I get the cardamom and patchouli in the dry down. Like all MMR fragrances, it's not a beast mode longevity monster, but it's not meant to be. It's a very pleasant, easy-to-wear summer citrus scent that will be perfect for days outside where you don't want to choke everyone out but rather smell clean and bright.

Fresh, Orange, Citrus. Perfect Summer
Habe den Duft auf Parfumo ersoukt und ich bin extrem überrascht. Das Rating kann ich so nicht verstehen. für mich ist der Duft deutlich mehr als eine 7.3. Er riecht extrem schön fruchtig, süß, gleichzeitig aber auch etwas bitter. Nicht zu sehr "voll ins Gesicht" sondern angenehm. Wer auf der Suche nach einem Duft mit Orange ist, wird hier nicht enttäuscht.
Für das Preis auf jeden Fall eine Kaufempfehlung und auch Blind Buy Sicher meiner Meinung nach :)

So, uh, how long until autumn?
Orange. Not the most realistic one. The alcoholic twist should theoretically make one think of aperol, but to me the result just smells like scented cleaning supplies. Black tea below, inexpensive kind. Vetiver. Nutmeg, though it gets easily lost beneath everything else. I don't really feel much cardamom, if any.

The overall scent is... honestly, pretty much what I expected from Margiela. If you like them, you'll probably like this one too. I personally feel like this summer isn't going too great.

A bit more than an arm's length of sillage, but the cloud gets very strong and thick in the wearer's personal space. Takes an hour to settle on skin and lose most of the top notes. Still faintly citrusy, but the most prominent notes are now vetiver and patchouli. Not great, not terrible.

In another hour vetiver fades. Patchouli lingers, infused with a cleaning supplies aftertaste.

In another hour, citrus completely fades. Patchouli lingers. And lingers. And lingers... You will spend two thirds of the 6ish hours that it lasts one on one with a flat boring patchouli note. So, uh, I hope you like patchouli?

Would you rather smell like this or drink like this?
This new fragrance plays on the incredibly popular Italian drink: Aperol Spritz. It's literally the Italian liqueur with that signature orange color and bittersweet aroma. All that's missing is prosecco and a splash of sparkling water. If you want to imagine yourself on a sun-drenched terrace and take a recap to that summer holiday feeling: this is your go-to perfume. Prefer a more unique scent and attract handsome Italians on that same terrace? Then choose a different perfume.

If this scent is neverending summer, then I feel like all citrus scents can be called that.

A nice, lightly boozy orange scent that turns a little powdery/makeup-y on drydown for me, but in a nice way!

It smells a little bitter and citrusy but in the best of ways. The spices come out in the dry down, specifically the tea and cardamom.

Surprisingly lasting peeled orange. Just an orange. There is a dry bitter herbal undertone, but still dominated by an orange peel.

Photo realistic orange peel on paper. On my skin and on dry down, aperol is more obvious. Wish it maintained the photorealistic orange peel.
