The story behind the bottle.
Matcha Meditation by Maison Martin Margiela is a composition that invites you into a serene and reflective space. Launched in 2021, this aromatic green fragrance was created by perfumers Maurice Roucel and Alexandra Carlin. The scent opens with the fresh, invigorating notes of bergamot and mandarin orange, followed by the subtle sweetness of jasmine and matcha tea. These elements are balanced with a powdery base of moss and cedar, creating an overall sense of calm and focus.
Apply this fragrance to your pulse points for a subtle yet lasting effect. The green and fresh notes are most impactful close to skin, so a light spritz is sufficient. It pairs well with cooler weather but can be worn year-round as an olfactory moment of reflection.
