Art collection 201 Man

The precision and detail in an artist's studio, where the scent of fresh paint mingles with woody notes from aged canvases and the faint hint of spices from a nearby pot of tea.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Jean-Claude Astier crafted Art collection 201 Man by M. Micallef as a fragrance that balances the brightness of citrus with the depth of woody and spicy notes. The opening is sharp and invigorating, with lemon, bergamot, and rosemary creating an aromatic freshness that feels like stepping into a crisp morning. As the scent evolves, nutmeg and coriander introduce a subtle warmth, while vetiver and oud anchor it in earthy richness. This composition captures the essence of a thoughtful blend, where each note complements rather than overwhelms.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best experienced close to skin due to its nuanced composition. Apply two sprays on pulse points and allow it to develop over time without layering. It pairs well with daytime activities where subtle depth rather than loud presence is desired.
