The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

From the Garden by Maison Martin Margiela is a composition that captures the essence of a fresh, verdant space. Launched in 2023 and created by Olivier Cresp and Sébastien Cresp, this fragrance opens with the surprising freshness of tomato leaf and green mandarin, creating an immediate sense of vitality and crispness. The heart of geranium adds a subtle floral note that contrasts beautifully with the earthy base of patchouli, grounding the scent in its natural setting.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points — the green mandarin opening is bright but fleeting, so you want it to make an immediate impact. The patchouli base takes about an hour to fully bloom, so plan accordingly if you're heading out for a day of meetings or errands.
