M.Micallef Note Vanillée Nectar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Paulo de Moraes. Note Vanillée Nectar opens with Citrus and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Cognac, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. M.Micallef's Note Vanillée Nectar carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a grown-up vanilla with a boozy, elegant twist. Divisive enough to split opinion on its 'vintage' vibe, but if you like a sophisticated, non-gourmand vanilla, this could be your holy grail.

Scent Profile

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.

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage, combined with the warm, boozy vanilla notes, make it perfect for intimate dates and elegant evenings. While some find it suitable for everyday wear, its richness might be a bit much for a conservative office setting.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

Opens with a fleeting kiss of citrus and mandarin, quickly diving into a warm, intoxicating heart of jasmine, rum, and cognac. The vanilla here isn't a sticky dessert but a smooth, refined presence, woven into rich amber and creamy sandalwood. It settles into a cosy, lightly boozy warmth that feels luxurious and inviting, avoiding any cloying sweetness.
