The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Vanille Sambag by M. Micallef is a composition that balances the sweetness of vanilla and coconut with the subtle spiciness of star anise and jasmine sambac. The opening note of coconut brings a fresh, beachy vibe before giving way to the floral heart notes of jasmine sambac and ylang-ylang. This lush bouquet is grounded by the rich warmth of Madagascar vanilla and benzoin, creating a fragrance that is both comforting and alluring.

How to wear it

Vanille Sambag blooms best close to skin rather than filling a room. Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points — it’s designed to be intimate, not overwhelming. The coconut note fades quickly, so the heart and base notes take center stage throughout the day.
