Promenade In The Gardens

It is awful outside, very hot and humid today. The scent blossoms beautifully in the heat. I keep sniffing myself as I am wearing this and I just feel amazing with it on. I am not a patchouli person but combined with the woods it works in the fragrance giving it a mysterious quality. It's a high quality, beautiful, green floral. I'm not sure it evokes a scent memory for me but I am certainly going to make some now!

I love green chypre florals and enjoy this scent. I feel that the note pyramid describes the fragrance well. The opening is green, spicy and somewhat floral. The sweet floral characters of rose, jasmine and peony then slowly emerge. The base is spicy and woody. I find this fragrance quite sweet in line with Narciso Rodriguesz fragrances but with a green herbaceous twist.

only reviewing the maison margiela scents i love or hate. I LOVE this perfume. Its so flowery and peony, rose and jasmine are my favorites, only thing missing is my iris. Its fruity and fresh and almost powdery? maybe that's the wrong description but its not see through like most fresh scents are if you know what I mean? Its a wonderful perfume.

I want this perfume so badly but I can't afford it. You know the deal, I just "visit" it when I go to the mall. I think it triggers such good memories and thoughts in my mind: Summer, euro trips, nature walks, a nice lunch, a sunny leisure day... It also reminds me a bit of my all time favorite: L'eau de Chloe.

Happiness in a fragrance when I sniff it it’s take me back to London 🥺touching my heart softly amazing friends memories , I kept stocking it every time I traveled to London it since it Luonged in London Selfridges .... and still wearing it s🙃and Never know we had it in Dubai only after it’s discontinued.......

The first spray of this fragrance is the freshness of a spring day and then it settles into a wonderfully luscious and unique green fragrance. Perfect for Spring and summer!

I have two bottles for sale. One full size bottle and one mini 15ml bottle . DM me if u want to buy.

Another discontinued favorite of mine by Replica...will trade if you have one. Ty!!

Amazingly beautiful and relaxing rose scent. Love it.

My first impression: Chloé EDP + Gucci Rush "Butch floral" is a great way to describe this. The combination of peony, rose + freesia reminds me a lot of Chloé's watery sweet and aristocratic charm, but this has got some potting soil under its fingernails and a bit more of a hippie feel compared to Chloé's more pampered scent. It's also a little more herbal than you'd expect from the pyramid, rather minty and mossy, but the dry down is solid Chloé with a slightly more herbal and peppery kick. It's really not that patchouli-heavy and certainly not a "masculine vetiver" drydown like someone suggested below, I kind of wish it was. I'd love to try a gender-bending floral that changes from something so floral-fruity to a dad's aftershave smell in real time. Nevertheless, I love the addition of vetiver and coriander here, and it's a welcome addiction to what otherwise would be a pretty but very forgettable scent. It's not bottle worthy for me, as both of its opposing sides feel rather safe and are only interesting in their juxtaposition, but I respect what it was going for. Projection is also higher than 90% of other Replica perfumes, which is to say, it actually has projection.

This was a blind buy. A brief history in context: I had a bottle of Idylle edt, which let me down (the bottle leaked, the golden part around the spritzer sticked to the cap and came off all the time, the staying power is minimal, etc.). I had a bottle of Narciso Rodriguez, which got claimed by my mother immediately. If comparing this one to those, Promenade has the best quality, period. It lacks the pungent musk from Narciso, or if there is some (I'm still not a very developed musk-detector when in small quantities), it's more delicate. The vetiver picks up that role that musk has in Narciso, and the rose is so well accompanied by it. I have to say I was afraid for that rose doing a blind buy, since English rose like in Yardley's one isn't my favourite and often has a big potpourri-factor. In contradiction with racb beneath, I don't think the rose is old-fashioned here at all and I don't get the powdery-remark; I love powdery scents, but this is really not it imho. Wafts of earthy patchouli come along and all seems rather "moisty fresh" to me. Anyway Promenade in the Gardens is mine now. All mine.

This is a nice scent profile. It does have a fresh slight petrichor running through it. As someone below wrote, "this Garden is not full of fragrant blooms, but a garden where you can still smell the damp earth, leaves and moss with a faint whiff of flowers after a spring rain". That's pretty accurate. It's far less feminine than the votes here suggest, due to the woody, earthy, green, patchouli accords. The floral opening is the most feminine, but it dries down to unisex. Not that similar to From the Garden. There is one comparison vote to AdP Blu Mediterraneo Mirto di Panarea, and I would say there is only a mild similarity in the opening before they diverge. Its a nice one I wouldn't mind having a bottle of, but given the crazy $300+ USD price people are trying to charge for this discontinued fragrance on the grey market, no thanks.

On my skin, Promenade In The Gardens is a prominent vetiver fragrance with a mossy undertone and a touch of rosy suavity. The vetiver is clean and crisp, but is still satisfyingly earthy and woody. This Garden is not a garden full of various blossoms, but a garden of vivid, lush vegetation after rain, of which the refreshing earthy smell of roots and stems is brought out by the moisture and permeates the air. The sillage is soft and the longevity is around 7 hours. Promenade In The Gardens is clean, radiant and modern, yet its damp earthiness keeps it natural. It's versatile and hardly offensive, yet it stands out among the 'clean' watery green floral. I'd definitely recommend it as a modern, chic fragrance with green, woody elements.

Wow wow wow this is lovely. I was surprised at how much the fragrance evolves with time passing. It opens with a very sharp and green (tomato plant, like I see other people saying) note, almost overwhelming to the friends I smelled this with. I love sharp openings so I wasn't surprised or put off. I sprayed it on paper. After a few hours, I could really smell the patchouli and the rose - really heavy on the patchouli (which isn't my favourite). After 24 hours, all that remained was a lovely, floral scent of peony and jasmine. I understand why people would define it as a grandma smell but I disagree. I think it's beautiful. Not for me because of the patchouli, but beautiful.

This is a great Spring floral. It is not overpowering, but fresh and lovely. It is light, but very uplifting. For me, the longevity of this scent is somewhat weak - about 3 hours at best, but for a floral, I guess that is ok - I am an allergy sufferer, so maybe that is a good thing, but it does not offend my nose. It is like walking in a garden, I think Margiela nailed it with the description of it being in a garden. The white flowers are there, but they are not overpowering as the patchouli and vetiver waters it down and makes it refreshing.

Walking through a cold freshly watered flower garden..that's exactly what this smells like, but more refined. It has woodiness, greenness, it's floral, fresh and lasts a really long time for an EDT. It's one of those sharp(as in very defined and precise) fragrances that normally pulls unisex or masculine but this is very much feminine and I can wear it any time. Also, I can smell the patchouli in this and it is so so nicely done. Best to spritz straight out the shower on damp-ish skin, works best for me that way. 💐

Promenade in the Garden opens up with watery, dewy florals with hints of something peppery. The opening resembles stoney pavement in a garden early in the morning. About 30 minutes into wearing it, I get a honey accord, probably from the combination of rose, patchouli, and jasmine. Rose and peony play a big part in the middle early to mid stage. Then it transition to this warm, earthy, bittersweet scent. This is suitable for an autumn day. Sillage is arm length.

A blast of playdough like pachouli and vetiver play with green notes, rose and jasmine. It's a bit synthetic but I really like it and for a Replica fragrance I find the performance to be good, probably due to this now being discontinued coming from when Maison Margiela had more concentrated formulas. I do also feel the name of this fragrance is a bit misleading, as this isn't a garden/flowery scent through and through. Definitely unisex.

A garden after the rain, the scent of fully bloomed roses, jasmine, and peonies in freshly turned earth. It's oddly aromatherapeutic, which isn't a word I'd associate with a chypre floral. Warm weather only, so spring & summer. My sample is still going strong from the crook of my elbow and it's been well over 4 hrs. Not sure if this is still available, but I'm definitely interested in a full bottle.

This really is a garden in a bottle. The rose is not over powering which it tends to be in most fragrances and the blend of it and the patchouli is very fresh and wonderful. I do see a man wearing this but he needs to be shaved, raw and gorgeous. If the man isn't that then I'd say this is for women only.
