    This scent honestly makes me think of soft kitten fur and I’m loving it! It’s snuggly and comforting while at the same time feels old-school glamourous and classy. I’m not good with describing notes but more so the “feeling” I get when I wear a scent. I hope my review makes sense…

    This is Tocca’s contribution to the ‘sharp suit’ genre. I quite like it. It’s slightly sweet, fresh in an officey way (rather than a Summery way), and the musk is approachable rather than animalic.
    Margaux is also deeper than the rest of the light and bright Tocca range.
    Actually I think it might be the love child of Burberry Women + Versace Crystal Noir, because it smells like a mid-point between those two.

    I have the Tocca “Meet the Girls” collection, and am pretty consistently underwhelmed by the scents inside. However, this is one of the more enjoyable options from the collection; it’s a very powdery, somewhat sweet musk scent that feels like a nod to the chic grandmothers of the world. I don’t get the floral notes, and I definitely don’t get the citrus. This is the kind of scent I’d wear to a job interview or to present at a conference… not on a date, though! I applied it about four hours ago and the scent still lingers on my pulse points (and the collar of my jacket).

    I found Margaux to be similar to fragrances like Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely and Narcisco Rodriguez for Her (EDT). It’s not a dupe for either of these, but it does remind me of them. It’s also not as strong as the NR for Her and has a clean smelling musk like Lovely.
    This opens on my skin with a funky kind of sweet smell (this usually indicates vanilla on my skin). It settles quickly into a light, clean and pretty musk. The florals are hard to discern on me; they are mainly there as background to the musk, which is most prominent. I found it to be a little fruity and sweet as well, which may be from the citrus. Overall, this is a very well-blended, linear scent that’s uncomplicated and easy to wear.
    Margaux really is a beautiful scent! Not my perfect musk, but it does come close. Soft to moderate sillage; longevity is for about 5-6 hours.

    This surprised me immensely as I have never been much of a fan of the Tocca line. NOT that I ever disliked any of their fragrances but they were seldom anything that worked for me or evoked any deep longing for possession.
    BUT, I bought a small bottle of Margaux (their bottles are so pretty and the name is special!)and I am charmed. If I had checked the notes first I would have automatically discounted it and consequently missed out on a very warm and feminine fragrance.
    It’s woody with a touch of cocoa, floral with no distinctive note but cozy and perfect for a cool day.
    If you tend to shy away from vanilla scents as I do, you may be pleasantly converted!

    The musk in this is intense, with some very beautiful florals behind it. This is a nice fragrance. It seems like a very mature one to me though, or at least rather formal. A little goes a long way.

    Beautiful musky scent that feels delicate yet classy, like wrapping yourself in cashmere… and sadly lasts all of 5 seconds…
    The bottle is lovely, heavy and well made (also heavy enough to be a considerable weapon too I suspect! It weighs a ton!)
    But this seems best sprayed on natural clothes like a nice wool jumper or silk top as it seems the only things that can hold this scent.
    I wait in vain for a intense version.

    I like this. It reminds me of jasmin noir, euphoria, and estee Lauder sensuous noir:-) Great for winter! It is not as strong as those i mentioned, more subtle.

    I tested this at Sephora today, and while it is very nice, it INSTANTLY reminded me of something I had smelled before. After about a minute it hit me. This smells VERY similar to Bvlgari Jasmin Noir. I already own Jasmin Noir, so I cannot justify buying this one as well. They are so similar to my nose that I cannot tell them apart when smelling them side by side. But, I do love both! This would be a good alternative for someone who does not want to pay for Bvlgari. It is a very rich, sexy, yet soft smoky vanilla smell. Great for Fall/Winter. I get compliments all the time when wearing Jasmin Noir, which to me is basically the same as this one!

    This is the first Tocca fragrance I’ve sampled that I plan to own a bottle of. Not that the others aren’t nice, because they definitely are; but not all ‘nice’ smelling fragrances are ones that I would buy.
    This has all the right notes that make me continue sniffing myself time and time again. I love musk and vanilla, and this fragrance doesn’t disappoint. I put this on and instantly I get that musky floral scent that really does it for me and it mellows out into this fantastic woodsy vanilla scent.
    So far this is my absolute favorite Tocca scent. I didn’t expect to love it, but I do. For me it’s a definite buy. The fragrance also lasts about 4-5 hours on my skin which is awesome because for some reason a lot of fragrances don’t have long life spans on my skin.

    On me this is very much a violet-heliotrope scent with a pronounced musk base. There are hints of vanilla, but they meld with the heliotrope so much that neither one stands out more than the other. The gardenia note seems to surround the whole essence, permeating into it a sourness that ruins the whole blend for me. This gardenia smells like it belongs in a private-label hand cream sold in Victoriana themed museum gift shops. Margaux dries down to become a dusty bowl of pot pourri atop the piano.

    Somebody here says: “it is actually quite nice”. And that summarizes this fragrance very well. As a matter of fact, that is all I can think of when trying to describe Margaux. That and the fact that I love the name. And the look of the bottle. The juice itself, I am afraid, seems like a very “generic” kind of fragrance somehow. Like something you have smelled way too many times. Something you will not remember a few hours later. Like the long stream of “celebrity fragrances” (only it’s supposedly MUCH more expensive)that are so alike and so forgettable. There is nothing wrong with this fragrance, I have to say… it’s quite pleasant…but once again – that’s all I can say about it and that seems veeeeeeeery little. Somebody here also says that “she thinks it disappears before she can even walk out of the house”. Yeah, I agree with that too.

    I can’t say I dislike any of the Tocca’s, in fact I think they’re all gorgeous for the most part, but many are very fleeting on my skin. This one though, has everything I could ever want – musk, vanilla, and some nice florals floating in the background. At first sniff, the musk and gardenia can be a bit overwhelming…but give it a few minutes and I promise, it turns into something gorgeous. This also has the longevity and sillage I’ve been looking for. The best Tocca in my humble opinion; very unique and not your typical overly sweet, synthetic vanilla. In fact, I am a vanilla lover but sometimes vanilla can take an odd turn on my skin. I love to see a vanilla that isn’t surrounded by too many other sweets or a bunch of fruits. This is beautifully blended and a wonderful addition to the Tocca line.

    This perfume uniquely translates a spring/summer gardenia vibe into a beautiful fall/winter fragrance. When I first put it on, I notice the musk and wood more than anything else. Then I get a nice vanilla note for a while, followed by a soft, muted gardenia that smells like it is being baked into some kind of delicious winter pastry. The citrus–particularly the blood orange–comes out at the end with a nice zing to it. It’s very “vanilla-floral” but with the complication (in a good way) of the additional wood, musk and citrus notes. It has really nice sillage (moderate) and longevity (moderate to long-lasting).
    I happen to love Tocca Florence (strong summer gardenia) and find this to be a perfect signature scent adjustment for colder weather. I switch back and forth between the two, carrying the gardenia and floral notes all year but with appropriately complementary supporting notes.

    I really love this perfume, and its one where I can’t really pick out individual notes too much. Just musky and woody and resiny and a little bit creamy, with a bit of a bite – from the cassis? blood orange maybe? I love the sharpness upon first spray. After the top notes fade it becomes much softer and quieter immediately, I can smell the flowers and vanilla more, and then it fades away for me completely in about 2 hours (a bit longer on clothes, but not nearly enough.) This is a go-to for me at night when the weather gets colder, but it is seriously lacking in sillage and longevity. It smells good enough that I don’t mind respraying, but I do wish it was a bit stronger.

    This doesn’t seem to be getting enough love on this page – I think it’s a lovely creamy gardenia, sweet enough with the vanilla and benzoin, but also the sweetness is kept nuanced by a pinch of other qualities – I can detect woods, a slightly bitter cassis leaf and the juicy blood-orange. I think it’s up there with a lot of more costly gardenias, that is for the first hours – my problem with this is that the most enjoyable phase lasts only 3-4 hours, after that I only sense a vague echo of what was.

    I’m giving this a third try and it’s just not happening for me. When I first tried it, I let my hubby have a sniff and he said what I was thinking “Colonial Williamsburg!”. It smells like the old shops and potpourri they have there. Not even a hint of florals on me. Warm and powdery woods and amber. Comforting in a very old fashioned way.
    If you enjoyed a Virginia vacation at our Colonial capital you will love this scent.

    I wasn’t sure about this scent but I bought it anyway. I took it on vacation with me the first week I purchased it and the attention it got was enough for me to be wary of wearing this scent when I want to go unnoticed. It is a seductive and inviting scent that one should wear with heels.
    I sometimes like to mix perfumes to make my own scent and I wear Bvulgari Jasmine Noir with this one.

    At work I use the name of Margo; so, when I saw the Tocca Margaux, I decided to buy it and use it since it was ‘my name”.
    Before I paid out the $68 for a bottle of it at Sephora, I did read about the notes and knew it was one that I would like….flowers with woods. No fruity stuff!
    This is a lovely scent to wear to work, never overpowering or offensive. Just so pleasant and pretty and warm.
    A few years ago I bought Tocca Cleopatra and it was nice…got the bubble bath too. But I was not thrilled with it…rather blagh to me, but my daughter loved it and took it and was happy with it.
    The only drawback to the Tocca fragrances: they do not last very long!
    Daughter says she thinks it disappears before she can even walk out of the house!
    I wore it to work today and it was pretty much gone after 5 hours.
    As soon as I got home, I sprayed some on again and fell in love once more.
    Margaux by Tocca is a lovely fragrance but it will need reapplying after about 4 hours.
    Happy with my purchase.

    When I first put this on I got lovely musk and sweet vanilla; then beautiful gardenia came in. The dry-down is a creamy, sweet, amber-y, vanilla-y gardenia, very well-blended, which I find absolutely divine.
    I tested this in the heat of the Sydney summer, and although I love it, I think this is definitely a cold-weather scent. In fact, I think this would be a stunner in winter; it has a really warm, comforting, sweet-without-cloying, floral feel to it. I think this could become a cold-weather staple for me.

    I know this may not make any sense, but I am really reminded of Serge Lutens Jeux de Peau. It seems to be a point of reference for me…
    In the opening this is unlike anything I’ve smelled. I get something biting and tart and medicinal that eventually gives way to creamy white florals and powdery violet. It’s smooth and soothing and sexy in a way that isn’t pushy or in your face. It simply calls, quietly. The dry down is where I start to get a touch of Jeaux de Peau. It has a certain milky vanilla musk that stays close to the skin, but Margaux holds onto her flowers.

    For me, this one’s not about dissecting every note and figuring out the complexities. This one just smells so good, and it puts a smile on my face every time I get even a trace of the scent. I adore it, and it is my favorite of the Tocca line. It is so pretty, sweet, warm and relaxing. And sometimes you really just need that. I also think both men and women would really like this one on a woman. If you’re looking to impress and want to wear something romantic and pretty but not overwhelming, this is your perfume!

    I have a carded sample from Sephora, and this is what it says inside:
    ” Evoking the deep, enduring love of two kindred souls, Margaux embraces you with velvety petals of green gardenia and ambery violet. The rich warmth of Cashmere Wood and Warm Musk, lightened by the sweetness of Vanilla, envelop you in an intoxicating perfume that conjures the timelessness of that one true love.”
    I wanted to share this because I feel this description very much matches my experience of Margaux. I’ve been wanting to love a Tocca fragrance enough to make a purchase for some time, and this is the first one that seems to work well enough for me. I have to say I’m getting a lot of violet, and it’s really nice. Not a stuffy or candied violet, but fresh smelling. It might be so because of the subtle gardenia backing it up. I also get the cashmere wood and warm musk, which create a very soft, luxurious, powdery, feminine base to the violet. This fragrance is delicate and a little bit complicated. When I first applied inside both wrists it seemed to fade to a very soft musky whisper within about two hours. I reapplied more liberally, adding a bit to the neckline of my top, my hair, and behind my ears. Now I am wafting in the ambery warm violet radiance of it. This isn’t a sweet fragrance, which is a nice change of pace. I don’t know about the notes listed in the description here, I’m not sure I get any blood orange or bergamot, but they may be blended in there to add to the freshness. I don’t get a lot of vanilla, just a subtle hint to keep things from getting sour. I’m not sure what cassis smells like, but maybe it’s adding to the violet I’m getting. This does seem to be a soft purple fragrance to me.

    This is a lovely evening out fragrance when you want to feel sophisticated, beautiful and respectable. Like going to a gala or maybe a charitable event. It makes me feel glam, but not necessarily sexy. Mostly sophisticated, it has a sort of dry austere feeling with soft beauty. This lady isn’t going to let her hair down for just anyone, she’s had to work incredibly hard to get the respect that she has!
    It opens with a musky (clean not oily) vanilla gardenia. They balance each other well. Musk keeps the vanilla from going too sweet, vanilla keeps the gardenia from going too sharp and gardenia keeps the musk from going to detergent town and getting too boring. Powder develops to keep things nice and soft.
    This is a little louder than most fragrances thought of as “daytime wear”, but I suppose you could if you like your juice with a little oomph. Otherwise, I do see this as being a softer nighttime fragrance.
    Silage is moderate at about arms length on dry skin in a central heating environment. I expect longevity to last around 6+ hours. EDIT: This became softer more quickly than anticipated. This will probably last about 4+ hours.
    Very nice fragrance when you’re in a mood to instill respect and remain feminine and beautiful.

    Very, very nice, for the cooler months. A welcome change from all the sugary fruity florals that line the Sephora shelves. Opens with a slightly medicinal note which soon fades into the lovely woods, with gardenia and violet quietly blooming in the background. Not overly sweet – but a definite presence. I find that this juice encourages me to stand a little taller, and walk a bit more briskly. A confidence-builder, if you need one.

    I detected absolutely no citrus. The relationship must not have been too exciting if this scent is the impression left. Unremarkable and forgettable.

    This one looks delightful – love the name too! The notes are interesting – blackcurrent and gardenia? Will definitely be giving this one a try. Something different I feel. Alexandrarae

    That old adage that we all wear scent uniquely has never been more true for me than with this perfume. I was shocked to see the notes because the top notes are nonexistent on me, and while violet does show itself for the first 10 minutes, it is backed up with such a powerful combination of the base notes, with the resinous notes overpowering everything! Eventually it settles down and becomes everything Estee Lauder’s Sensuous is, and more. Beautifully more. On that special person, this will be spectacular!

    As I am completely and utterly enamored of the Tocca bottles, I look forward to each new Tocca launch as an excuse to acquire one of their dual-function eye-candy/personal defense implements. I used to complain about the fact that the sprayers are heat-sealed, making it impossible to refill the vessels, and also the fact that they contain only 50ml, which can be drained in no time. But then one day I had an epiphany: these bottles contain a small volume precisely so that one can leave them out on one’s vanity tray or in one’s boudoir in plain daylight without risking damage to the perfume. By the time the composition would begin to degrade, it’s already gone! So now I’m not complaining anymore (though I do still wish that they were screw-on). I love these bottles as decorative pieces and, once empty, beautiful windowsill adornments–in addition to bedside personal defense implements, as they are truly hefty enough to crack a skull. Midnight trespassers beware!
    The opening of Tocca Margaux had me very excited: a nice oriental in the neighborhood of Brigitte. My only issue with this fragrance is the incredibly tenacious gardenia note, which comes through in the drydown. Nothing like Florence, mind you, which ends up being overwhelming whenever I wear it. (Strangely I have twice made the mistake of donning that super-strong, nuclear-powered juice before setting out for the library–and later regretting the choice…) Margaux is certainly more tolerable than Florence to my nose–this is not massive sweet gardenia overkill–but the drydown is nowhere nearly as delightful as the opening. That’s okay though, since I only need to be capable of consuming a grand total of 50ml in order to persuade myself that this is another propitious Tocca bottle acquisition opportunity.

    If you own Marina de Bourbon Reverence, you do not need this. They smell exactly alike.

    This is actually quite nice. I smelled this at Anthropolie today and tried it on my wrist and I have to say that I will definitely be purchasing this in the near future. I love the violet in it because it’s not too overpowering and I think it’s perfect for this time of year. Well done Tocca.

    If you missed out on Burberry Brit Gold give this fragrance a try maybe not as pungent on the sandalwood and amber but still plenty woody with the very present cassis/black current note found in Burberry Brit Gold. Unique on the mass market shelves of fragrance.
