Forest

Forest by Maison Martin Margiela (2016) is a chypre built on a moss and pimento heart, with a base of Atlas cedar, incense, and patchouli. The top notes are unspecified, but the composition leans woody (100%), amber (54%), aromatic (54%), fresh spicy (52%), warm spicy (52%), and balsamic (50%). This is a dry, earthy scent: moss provides a damp forest floor, pimento adds a sharp spice, while cedar and incense give a smoky, resinous depth. Patchouli ties it together with a subtle camphoraceous edge. It suits collectors who appreciate austere, green-woody chypres and unisex wearers comfortable with a balsamic, incense-laced profile. Best for cool weather or evening wear, it is a contemplative, grounded fragrance rather than a crowd-pleaser. As a discontinued release, it holds interest for those seeking a less sweet, more meditative chypre.

Maison Martin Margiela 的 Forest（2016）係一款西普調香水，核心係苔蘚同多香果，基調有阿特拉斯雪松、乳香同廣藿香。官方無公佈前調，但主調係木質（100%）、琥珀（54%）、芳香（54%）、清新辛香（52%）、溫暖辛香（52%）同香脂（50%）。氣味乾燥、泥土感重：苔蘚帶出濕潤林地，多香果添上銳利辛香，雪松同乳香則營造煙燻樹脂深度，廣藿香收尾帶微微樟腦感。適合鍾意嚴肅綠木西普嘅收藏家，以及接受香脂乳香調嘅中性用家。冷天或夜晚用最啱，係一支沉思、踏實嘅香水，唔係討好大眾嘅類型。作為停產作品，對追求無咁甜、更冥想式西普嘅人嚟講好有吸引力。
