Fragrance information:

Marseille Comme des Garçons Parfums arrived in 2021 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. A unisex fragrance from the citrus and floral families. Conceived and brought to life by perfumer Quentin Bisch. The fragrance belongs to the ambery, fairy, and floral groups. In eau de toilette — and that's all it takes to fall in love.

It carries a moderate sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. Recommended dosage: 4 and more sprays on skin, 1-2 sprays on clothing. The longevity of this fragrance is moderate — exactly what most occasions call for. Produced in France, and you can feel it in every note. Marseille Comme des Garçons Parfums — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Marseille unfolds as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The style of Comme des Garçons Parfums comes through in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

At the note-group layer the structure relies on Ambery, Fairy, Floral and Animals. The framework further includes Citrus and Whiteflower. At family level the scent maps to Citrus and Floral.

As soon as the fragrance opens you catch petal-airy top notes: Neroli and Soap.

In the middle phase you notice Petalia keeping a harmonious floral direction.

The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Floral, Musc and Cosmetic without random overlap. The gender direction is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In longevity terms Middle suggests confident staying power. In diffusion Middle shows the style of diffusion around the wearer.

In summary Marseille holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best judged through real development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

Neroli itself already gives a soapy effect, and here they added a soap accord - so it's soap on soap, and soap everywhere! 😄 I wonder what came out in the end - a true ode to soap? :) Anyway, I'll check it out, just to broaden my perfume horizons! 🌸

The fragrance Marseille, created by Quentin Bisch, truly captures attention. It combines tradition and modernity. The soft soapy accord here is devoid of unpleasant associations with ordinary household soap, thanks to a significant amount of neroli, which imparts a feeling of freshness. Petalia, as a key ingredient, links this fragrance to its predecessor Fleur Narcotique, also by Bisch.

Here you can detect notes of peony and light fruity nuances of lychee, framed by cozy musk and an unobtrusive woody base. This is not just a scent of cleanliness, but something more intimate and warm. It reminds you how pleasant it feels after a shower, when the skin is fresh and well-cared for.

Soap as a concept in perfumery is not a novelty. Many fragrances, such as Blanche by Byredo or Bubble Bath by Maison Martin Margiela, have already explored this theme. In a post-COVID world, when hygiene has become especially important, the scent of soap gives a feeling of comfort and safety. Marseille not only pays homage to the past but also reflects the spirit of our time

Honestly, I probably shouldn't even think about buying it. But damn, the scent really grabs you. It's like you've just stepped out of a hot bath, surrounded by those rosy clouds. Whereas Penhaligon's Castile is all white: white towels, sinks, soap, tiles. This new fragrance has a slight rosacea, which gives it a feeling of naivety. Honestly, I don't understand how anyone could like it

Soap and neroli - that's an interesting combination. I like these scents, but separately. I wonder what the result will be if they're mixed? In any case, Quentin Bisch seems to have known exactly what he was doing 😊

The scent reminds me of baby soap, and that's true. It's quite suitable for sports or morning runs, and also for an office with a strict dress code. But, honestly, I don't understand why use it, since it stays close to the skin and could easily replace shower gel 🧼
