M.Micallef's Gourmet is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a challenging opening of smoke and leather that eventually settles into a sophisticated, nutty vanilla. It's not for the faint-hearted, but those who 'get' it rave about its unique charm.

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.

About

This one kicks off with a bold, smoky blast of incense and a surprising tang of raspberry, instantly setting a complex stage. As it settles, a rich heart of roasted chestnut emerges, interwoven with supple leather and a whisper of violet. The dry down is a warm, enveloping blend of deep oud, sweet vanilla, and resinous labdanum, creating a sophisticated, smoky gourmand that's more elegant than edible.
