Maison Margiela

What the Maison Margiela range is made of

Across the 26 Maison Margiela fragrances Zenyra has mapped, the materials that recur most are musk (31%), vetiver (19%), rose (19%). No single note dominates, which is itself a choice — this is a house that works across a palette rather than around a signature material.

On Zenyra's five axes the house reads closer to the skin than the catalogue as a whole: projection averages 0.38 against 0.51 across all mapped fragrances. That is a wide margin, and it is the clearest thing the data says about this house.

One idea, or many

The Maison Margiela range spreads 0.129 across the five axes — neither a house built on one idea nor one that covers the whole map. There is a recognisable centre with real variation around it.

The median release year across the mapped range is 2015.
