Crème de la Crème by M. Micallef is a composition that balances warm spices with rich vanilla and coffee notes, creating an enveloping aroma that feels both comforting and sophisticated. Launched in 2022 and crafted by Jimmy Anton Studer, this fragrance opens with the invigorating scent of coffee and neroli before giving way to a heart of ylang-ylang, rose, and jasmine. The base layers of sandalwood, cedar, vanilla, tonka bean, and musk create an opulent warmth that lingers on the skin.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for an immediate warmth that builds on skin over time. The base notes take about an hour to fully settle, so give it some time before heading out. It reads best in cooler settings where its rich warmth can be appreciated.

The story behind the bottle.
The quiet richness of a velvet armchair in a well-lit study, where the scent of warm coffee and soft woods mingles with the subtle sweetness of vanilla.
