Fragrance Story:
When creating REPLICA Afternoon Delight, perfumer Carlos Benaïm was inspired by a famous moment captured by Marcel Proust in his book "In Search of Lost Time." In it, the madeleine symbolizes those rare moments when you can pause and recall fleeting moments of peace.
Like the other fragrances in the REPLICA collection, the Afternoon Delight bottle is inspired by classic apothecary bottles. The outer box is adorned with a Polaroid photo of a madeleine, reflecting the warm scent inside. Slow down and experience a moment of unadulterated joy.
