The Story

DesirToxic L'Intense by M. Micallef is a bold and provocative aromatic-spicy fragrance for both women and men, launched in 2024 under the creative direction of perfumer Thierry Romeo. The composition opens with vibrant bergamot and lemon, balanced by the warmth of cardamom and saffron. As it evolves, black currant and mint add a fresh, fruity contrast to the warm spiciness of cinnamon and cannabis. The base notes of tonka bean, patchouli, musk, moss, ambergris, and benzoin create an enveloping warmth that lingers on the skin.

Application Tips

Apply DesirToxic L'Intense to pulse points for an intense yet balanced experience. The cannabis note is particularly noticeable in the early stages, so two sprays are sufficient to allow the warm base notes to emerge gradually over time.

The story behind the bottle.

The sharp clarity of a brisk walk through a modern city park at twilight, where the crispness of citrus mingles with the earthy warmth of moss and spices.
