M.Micallef Puzzle No. 2 is an Eau de Parfum. Puzzle No. 2 opens with Grapefruit and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Geranium, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Clean Musk. M.Micallef's Puzzle No. 2 carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A criminally underrated gem that nails blackcurrant perfectly without any of the 'cat pee' funk, blended beautifully with grapefruit and vetiver. It's a sublime, long-lasting warm weather staple that deserves more recognition.

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 moderate sillage and fresh, clean profile make it suitable for office and casual wear without being overpowering. While it has good longevity, it's not a heavy scent, so it's less suited for formal events where a bolder statement might be preferred.

About

Opening with a juicy burst of grapefruit and the vibrant, green tartness of blackcurrant, this scent immediately invigorates. The heart introduces a delicate floral bouquet of jasmine, geranium, and orchid, adding a smooth elegance. As it settles, a sophisticated base of cashmere wood, earthy vetiver, and a clean musk emerges, grounding the bright opening with a refined, lasting warmth.
