The story behind the bottle.
Jean-Claude Astier crafted English Garden by M. Micallef as a Floral Green fragrance that captures the essence of an English garden in full bloom. The composition opens with fresh and aromatic notes of black currant, mint, and bergamot, creating a vibrant and invigorating top layer. As it settles, rose and violet take center stage, blending seamlessly into a heart of geranium and jasmine. The base notes of musk and woody accords provide warmth and depth, grounding the composition in an earthy embrace.
Apply this fragrance lightly to capture its nuanced layers. The fresh spicy top notes dissipate quickly, so aim for two light sprays on pulse points to allow the floral heart and woody base to develop gradually throughout the day.
