M.Micallef Royal Vintage is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Jean-Claude Astier. Royal Vintage opens with Bergamot and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Leather and Cypress, and dries down to a base of Musk and Patchouli. M.Micallef's Royal Vintage carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Royal Vintage is a sophisticated woody-leather scent that bravely attempts to carve its own path. While it continually invites comparisons to a certain blockbuster fragrance, its cypress-driven greenness sets it apart as a more mature, distinguished option. It's a statement of refined masculinity.

About

Opening with a brisk burst of bergamot and a subtle kick of pink pepper, Royal Vintage quickly evolves into its woody heart, where prominent cypress lends a green, balsamic freshness. This is expertly interwoven with a refined, sometimes smoky leather note. The drydown settles into a rich, earthy blend of patchouli and musk, adding depth and a lasting, sensual warmth.
