The Story

Launched in 2024, Il Etait une Nuit by M. Micallef is a Floral Fruity fragrance created by Martine Micallef. This scent begins with the succulent sweetness of plum and peach, leading into a heart of tuberose and jasmine that radiates warmth and sensuality. The base notes of amber, vanilla, and white musk create a powdery, slightly animalic finish that lingers on the skin, making it an intimate and evocative fragrance.

Martine Micallef portrait

Martine Micallef, born in Nice in 1961 and raised in St. Paul de Vence, Provence, sold her beauty salon business to co-found M. Micallef with her husband Geoffrey Nejman, a former banker, in Grasse in 1997, pioneering the house's 'Art et Parfum' philosophy. Drawing on her Maltese heritage and fascination with Oriental culture, she developed a love of oud, and is responsible for the brand's hand-decorated, bejeweled bottle designs.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet intimacy of a late-night conversation over hot chocolate, where the air is filled with the scent of ripe fruit and warm spices.
