Maison Margiela introduces Lost Eden, a mesmerizing chapter in the REPLICA Fantasies collection. While the original REPLICA line focuses on reproducing familiar, grounded memories, the Fantasies collection ushers you into a world of dreams, surreal landscapes, and abstract desires. Lost Eden is inspired by the ancient fantasy of biting the forbidden fruit—a timeless symbol of temptation. It captures the psychological push and pull of desire, inviting you to confront your temptations within the conceptual setting of a mystical, mysterious garden.
Crafted by Master Perfumer Honorine Blanc, this Eau de Parfum is shaped around a "Surreal Ingredient": the Forbidden Fruit Accord. Blanc utilizes a trio of intense, precious raw materials to manifest this fantastical olfactory sensation. The fragrance opens with a vibrant, liquor-like Candied Red Apple accord that teases the senses with a juicy spark, before melting into an addictive, sultry Vanilla infusion that replicates the sweetness of hesitation. Finally, a smoky Oud accord grounds the scent, providing a long-lasting, woody depth that feels both sheltering and deeply mysterious.
Formulated as a unisex fragrance, Lost Eden is designed for both men and women who are drawn to contrasted, smoky, and sweet signatures. Because of its rich gourmand and woody profile, this high-concentration scent is exceptionally well-suited for the cooler climates of fall and winter, or for evening wear when its sultry, transformative qualities can truly radiate. It is a bold, artistic statement piece that emboldens the wearer to make their desires come to life.
Bottle Description:
The REPLICA FANTASIES bottle is dressed in an opulent, graduated black lacquering. This rich hue evokes nightfall, symbolic of how the collection ushers you into a world of dreams and fantasies.

Each bottle is adorned with the iconic label featuring the brand logo in a new gleaming, textured silver design—a unique tribute to the original Maison Margiela fashion line.

Step 1: Set the Foundation
Apply to clean, moisturized skin. Hydrated skin helps lock in the gourmand and woody notes, allowing the fragrance to project beautifully.
Step 2: Target Pulse Points
Spray your chosen fragrance on pulse points such as the wrists, inner elbows, and neck. The natural warmth of your body will help amplify the smoky oud and sweet vanilla accords.
Step 3: Let It Develop
Avoid rubbing the skin after application. Allow the top notes of candied red apple to transition naturally into the heart and base notes for a multi-dimensional scent experience.
