From the brand - "Crafted by perfumer Christophe Raynaud, this scent is a vibrant ode to Italian summers, centered around Maison Margiela Fragrances' signature Italian Spritz accord. The effervescent fusion of bitter orange adds a sparkling citrus brightness, reminiscent of freshly peeled fruit glistening in the sun, while the sensual depth of vetiver grounds the composition with a touch of earthy sophistication. Though undeniably perfect for warm, sunlit days, Never Ending Summer extends beyond the season, offering a refreshing yet refined presence that lingers delicately on the skin. With its crisp yet enduring character, this eau de toilette delivers an effortlessly chic aroma, making it an ideal companion all year round. Amalfi Coast 2022"

Fragrantica - "In contrast, Never-ending Summer has arrived just in time for the warmer months—and I couldn’t be more pleased. As a long-time lover of citrus-based scents, I’m always on the lookout for a composition that adds something unique to the classic brightness. Never-ending Summer delivers just that. While the official pyramid highlights bitter orange, there’s a charming effervescence in the opening that, with a bit of imagination, really evokes a chilled Aperol Spritz—the kind I dream of sipping for those fleeting 30 seconds of pure parental relaxation by the sea, while our two children temporarily (very briefly) entertain themselves. The bitterness of the citrus isn’t sharp or overly zesty. Instead, it’s softened by subtle warmth and a breezy, sun-kissed character that feels effortlessly elegant.. There's no overwhelming sweetness, no synthetic sunscreen vibe—just a refined, sparkling citrus heart with a whisper of herbal freshness and soft woods in the background. What pleasantly surprised me is both the longevity and projection, which are outstanding for a summer citrus scent. It stays noticeable for hours, and maintains a lively presence that feels clean, uplifting, and dynamic throughout its development."
Fragrantica - "To me, it smells like an Aperol spritz, and seems like something I can wear at the cottage (thanks to the woodiness), or of course, on a nice European vacation by the coast. Good for everyday wear, and brings a smile to my face!"
Fragrantica - "Just really nice. Smells like summer in a bottle."
