The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

B by Micallef, crafted by Jean-Claude Astier, is an Oriental Floral fragrance that balances the purity of white florals with the warmth of vanilla and the sensuality of tuberose. The powdery and musky notes create a soft, enveloping quality, while subtle animalic accents add depth and complexity. This composition evokes a sense of refined elegance and comfort, making it an enduring choice for those who appreciate nuanced beauty.

How to wear it

Apply B lightly to pulse points — it blooms gradually over time. The white floral notes are most prominent in the first hour, but the base of vanilla and musk will linger for hours, ensuring a delicate presence throughout the day.
