Perfume Parlour Sand Feet is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Sand Feet opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang, Heliotrope, and Coconut, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Benzoin. Perfume Parlour's Sand Feet carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Sand Feet chases Maison Margiela's Replica Beach Walk - that nostalgic suncream-and-coconut summer scent of citrus, soft florals and creamy warmth. It captures the sun-kissed, beachy signature, but renders it flatter, with the original's realistic, transportive blend simplified and projection pulled in to a closer wear.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Sand Feet opens bright and zesty: lemon and bergamot with a peppery pink-pepper lift, the same crisp citrus that introduces Beach Walk before the cream arrives. The heart is the star - a soft coconut milk wrapped in powdery heliotrope and a tropical ylang-ylang, conjuring that sunscreen-on-warm-skin, soft-floral-and-ocean-air mood the original is loved for. The base settles into benzoin, dry cedar and clean musk, keeping the dry-down warm and skin-like. Against the genuine Margiela it is less realistic and less evocative: the coconut reads a touch more candied, the florals thinner, and the nostalgic 'beach holiday in a bottle' magic is dialled down, with projection staying modest and turning skin-close within a couple of hours. Still, the sunny, creamy, summery mood comes through faithfully. It trades the original's transportive realism and refinement for budget value, an easy warm-weather scent for casual days, the beach and daytime dates.
