MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA
SOUL OF THE FOREST

Soul Of The Forest opens with a warm spiciness from pimento that intertwines with the tart freshness of black currant, layered over a grounding moss note. As it evolves, the heart reveals a rich combination of balsam fir and sweet maple syrup, creating a cozy, woodsy embrace accentuated by the resinous depth of labdanum. In the dry down, the fragrance settles into a comforting base of incense, Atlas cedar, and patchouli, which together exude a warm, aromatic quality that feels both earthy and refined. This unisex fragrance is particularly well-suited for the transitional seasons of fall and spring, making it an ideal choice for daytime wear. Its moderate longevity and intimate sillage mean it won’t overwhelm, allowing for a more personal connection with those around you. If you're drawn to fragrances that balance woody and spicy elements with a touch of sweetness, Soul Of The Forest stands out in its category. It’s reminiscent of a walk through a sun-dappled forest-perfect for those who appreciate subtle yet intriguing scents.

verifiedBy Fragranova Editors

Soul Of The Forest opens on black currant and moss before easing into a balsam fir and labdanum heart. What you'll smell on skin hours in is atlas cedar, incense, and patchouli — the base does the heavy lifting here. Expect a reasonable, well-behaved wear — not a beast, not a whisper. Hits hardest across fall and spring and leans daytime. Most wearers settle on liking it (4.0/5) rather than loving it — a safe rotation addition.
