After recently purchasing the “sailing day” perfume (review here), I wanted to add another REPLICA scent to m collection of fragrances. If you love coffee and the universe surrounding it, “coffee break” is sure to hit the spot!

The Inspiration

This warm and comforting perfume takes us back to Stockholm in 2007. Inspired by a creamy and cozy memory, the fragrance captures a coffee shop on a cold winter's day.

If you are a caffeine lover like me, I am sure you already have some notes and images in mind. The fragrance allows you to relive the smaller details, such as the frothed milk on your lips, the sweet crispy pastries, and the subtle sound of the coffee machine in the background. Extremely addictive, “coffee break” is the perfect scent.

The Notes

To achieve this enveloping and cozy perfume Maison Margiela has combined four special notes: Coffee accord, milk mousse accord, lavender, and spearmint. The warmth and intensity of the coffee are balanced by a round and smooth, creamy note making the perfect stick to the skin. Lavender and spearmint represent the cooler winter weather, which brings a fresher green note to the perfume. The notes blend to perfection in a surprisingly pleasant way.

My Experience

The coffee break eau de toilette has to be one of my favorite scents from the brand. I love how well the cafe experience is captured; each morning, I relive it. The perfume holds well throughout the day and leaves a lovely sillage. I get many compliments on this perfume, and people are always surprised by the notes inside. I love having a perfume that stands out from the regular ones.

The perfume's juice takes on an orange-tinted color, reflecting the warm character of the scent. Dressed in its iconic REPLICA bottle, the fragrance is perfect in all ways. Try the perfume on the skin rather than on clothes for a true finish, and vaporize from a distance if wearing white or light-colored clothing.
