Identity and Release History

Dive into the world of exquisite perfumery with M. Micallef Ananda, a fragrance that since its release in 2005 has become a symbol of elegance and joy.

The name "Ananda," which in Sanskrit means "happiness" and "bliss," perfectly reflects the essence of this composition, created for those who appreciate harmony and positivity.

This women's perfume is part of the eponymous Ananda collection, highlighting the integrity of the brand's concept, rooted in the spiritual art of Grasse.

Founded in 1996 by artist Martine Micallef and her husband Geoffrey Nejman, the house of M. Micallef strives to blur the boundaries between art and perfumery, and Ananda is a bright confirmation of this.

The fragrance embodies the dream of serenity, inviting you on a journey where each note resonates like a hymn to life.

Positioning and Wearability

Ananda by M. Micallef is positioned as a women's fragrance, ideally suited for confident girls and women who adore floral chords.

In the concentration of Eau de Parfum, it offers a balanced formula that gently unfolds on the skin, giving a feeling of freshness and tenderness.

Its moderate sillage leaves behind a light yet memorable trace, without overwhelming others, making it versatile for daily wear and special moments.

For optimal application, it is recommended to step into the cloud of the fragrance, spraying it around you to evenly cover the skin, and on clothing—2 to 3 sprays for a more lasting effect.

This dosage will allow you to enjoy all facets of the composition, from the initial fruity burst to the warm musky-vanilla base.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Ananda by M. Micallef is a true journey from juicy fruitiness to a delicate floral heart and a warm base.

In the top notes, you are greeted with a burst of freshness featuring black currant, lemon, pear, and plum, creating a playful and refreshing opening that instantly lifts the mood.

As it unfolds, the heart of the composition reveals a luxurious bouquet of jasmine, mimosa, rose, violet, and ylang-ylang, adding depth and sensuality reminiscent of a spring garden.

In the base, mimosa smoothly transitions into musk (white musk) and vanilla, creating a cozy and long-lasting finish that envelops the skin with a soft trail.

This composition, belonging to floral families, skillfully combines fruity, floral, and musky groups, making it multifaceted and alluring.

Each layer of notes harmoniously interacts, offering enjoyment from the first seconds to long hours of wear.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
