Maison Margiela Unisex Soul of The Forest EDP Spray 3.4 oz Fragrances 3614271429902

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've got a bottle that is very new batch so this one is reissued version, probably reformulated, as all perfumes recently. I haven't had a chance to smell original version as it was discontinued and if at all available - prices are sky high. New SotF is very forest-y of course, very woody and balsamic, like you're in the forest indeed. The fragrance is very dark, thick like a tar, very dark green and damp, very fresh. At least at the beginning, because it gets sweeter and less dense. The longevity is quite good on my skin - 4-5 hours, but of course that depends on one's skin solely. The bottle is elegant, black at top, getting lighter, kind of smoky closer to the bottom. The sprayer makes beautiful mist but at the same time at close inspection looks kind of cheap and plastic. I'd say it's more masculine than feminine but it again depends on your personal taste and perception.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very strong woody scent, long lasting I can smell throughout the day. Probably would not be my choice for everyday use. The design of the bottle is simple and attractive.
