Last month, my workspace looked like a little factory with rolls of felt, piles of cut fabric all over and a sewing machine instead of a computer on the desk.
I was making the bags in which the new Maison Martin Margiela Replica scents would be presented to the press, kind of like a packaging for a packaging.
The fragrances division of Maison Martin Margiela saw the DIY I made a while ago and commissioned me to make it for the entire fashion press of The Netherlands and Belgium.
You can imagine my excitement.
About the fragrances_
Romeo appropriated the 'Jazz club' and my personal favorite is the musky 'Lazy Sunday Morning'. Right now, the beautiful bottle of 'Promenade in the gardens' sits unused on the shelf. So if you like flowery scents with a slight hint of fresh leaves, leave your email in the comments below. At the end of the week I will pick someone who can put it to good use and send it over inside a little felt bag.

I'm currently saving up to get this perfume and since I'm currently unemployed, it going to take a while. Not only does it smell heavenly, the bottle is such a great piece all by itself. Would love to win this!
Also, congrats on the project, Ivania. You deserve it all :)

Dear Ivania,
I would love to have that fragrance! I am a college student studying fashion design and am very much inspired by Mason Martin Margiela and minimalism. Your blog is so influential to me, and I even constructed my senior year prom dress out of white leather inspired by Margiela and your minimalistic blog! You inspire me a lot because your style is so unique and simple, and I hope that you pick me to send this perfume to, I would cherish it very much.

A lazy sunday morning
Pouring a cloud in my tea
Shamelessly yawning
No plans, just letting it be
Sheets on my skin
Sunshine through the curtains
I'm staying in
Comfort is my friend
Time is on my side
I don't want this sunday to end
The sweet scent of a lazy sunday morning...makes me long for MMM

I think I'm more excited about the possibility of experiencing the packaging than smelling the scent!
I am so curious for a MMM scent. The bottles look amazing, the scent naming is fun and most of all I am so thankful for your generosity and this give-away! I don't know where I can find the MMM fragrances and therefore I want to take part of this giveaway. And also because my own scent preference are flower scents. The Promenade in the gardens sounds very tempting and unique and I am looking forward to try this. Again thank you. And congratulations on being part of the fashion press. I think the whole presentation will be awesome. You definitely inspire me. Groetjes uit België, Stéphanie.
Congrats! I've been reading your blog silently for a while now, but I'd really like to participate =)

I love clean lines and minimalist approach to packaging.
All the packaging I see these days is so convoluted.
I would love to own Promenade in the Gardens and add it to my scent collection. meganistephens@hotmail.com
Congratulations on your collaboration with MMM!
O yes! a handmade little bag made by you:-) one please:-)
sounds lovely
elisew @ insightbb . com
This would be like a dream-come-true for me - working with MMM. MMM thinking my ideas as worth of thought and collaboration - I am so happy for you, congratulations! This is incredible.
I would, of course, also like to smell Margiela's parfume everyday, I wanted any kind of scent from them since the 'untitled' was released, but I'm too poor for high-end parfume, even though Margiela is my all-time favourite designer/inspiration.
ancheryte@gmail.com
Margiela: one of my absolute favorites. As well as your blog! kanne.samantha@gmail.com

Hi there! I would love to have this perfume because I've always been an avid reader of Love-Aesthetics and it has given me a wider insight into the world of fashion as well as beauty/DIY/life. My parents are plant-lovers, so I am constantly surrounded with plants either inside or outside my house. It is probably why I love floral things as well as scents - I think it would be a privilege to add another distict floral scent to my small collectino of perfumes.

I've actually never really worn perfume. I dunno, I've always associated it with over the top cartoonish Cruella DeVille-type guady characters who would smoke cigarettes with a cigarette holder or something.
That said, I've recently been thinking about it because a friend once said to me that because she wears perfume, sometimes a friend will call her out of the blue and say, "I smelled something that reminded me of you recently, I miss you, how have you been doing."
And I think that's kind of beautiful.

This is amazing. And not to sound strange, but to have something sent from your favourite blogger would be mind-blowing.
Right now I'm using a Tiger Lily scent and a Vanilla scent, so you could easily say that the flowery scent would match my taste.

Hi Ivania! I'm Aglaia, I' studying Footwear and Accessories Design and I'm really (kind of you) obsessed with white. I'm doing research on research for my -WHITE WHITE- collection and u are always an inspiration. So of course I really like Margiela and all the work he did. Not only on shoes (I'm basing my Collection in tabi, so) and the fragance will be really nice on a white-obsessed person. Don't u think?! ;)
Ops, I forgot! I'm Aglaia from aglaiarestuccia@libero.it

Tiny pyramids bags are essential for storing things such as things that you care about. Congrats that MMM is seeing your talents, you're a muse, and as an artist you're growing into a Ivaniamania.
