Is At the Barber's discontinued?+−
Yes, numerous community reports and retail availability trends indicate that this fragrance has been discontinued by Maison Margiela, making it increasingly difficult to find at standard retail prices.
How does this compare to other barbershop scents like Platinum Égoïste?+−
It is frequently compared to Platinum Égoïste but is noted for being less dense and more focused on the "soapy shaving cream" aspect. While it shares the metallic lavender DNA of many classic fougeres, it feels more contemporary and less "perfumy" than its predecessors.
Can this be worn in warm weather?+−
It is highly recommended for spring and summer. The combination of basil, bitter orange, and aromatic herbs makes it feel light and refreshing rather than cloying when the temperature rises.
What is the most dominant note in the dry down?+−
Once the initial herbs and citrus fade, the fragrance settles into a clean, slightly sweet base of white musk and tonka bean, supported by the lingering herbal trail of lavender.
