Verseau by M. Micallef is a composition crafted by perfumer Geoffrey Nejman, blending fresh spiciness with woody and powdery undertones. The fragrance opens with the bright burst of bergamot and green mandarin, which quickly melds into star anise and nutmeg for a warm, spicy embrace. As it evolves, violet adds a delicate floral touch before settling into earthy notes like cashmere wood, moss, patchouli, and leather, creating a complex and intriguing depth.

Application Tips
Apply Verseau to your pulse points for optimal warmth and longevity. The citrus notes are bright but fade within an hour, so aim for a moderate spray to let the earthy and woody base notes take center stage as they develop over time.

The story behind the bottle.
The crisp air of an autumn day, where the scent of freshly cut wood mingles with the lingering sweetness of fallen leaves and the subtle spiciness of a warm fire.
