About M. Micallef Puzzle No 1

Introducing Puzzle No 1 — a sophisticated and original floral-fruity fragrance from M. Micallef, launched in 2014.

This perfume became part of the Art 2014 collection, inspired by art and harmony.

The very idea behind the name refers to a puzzle: our lives are made up of many pieces, and only when the picture is assembled correctly does it become perfect.

Likewise, this fragrance, playing with its vivid facets, helps complete your look.

M. Micallef is the art of the soul from Grasse.

In 1996, in the heart of France's perfume capital, artist Martine Micallef and her husband Geoffrey Nejman founded the house, dreaming of erasing the boundary between perfumery and painting.

Each fragrance by the brand is like a painting, filled with emotions and colours.

Fragrance Pyramid and Character

Puzzle No 1 is an eau de parfum with very strong projection, created for women. The fragrance belongs to the floral, musky, and woody families.

The top notes feature juicy citrus fruits: lemon and orange, complemented by the sweetness of peach and the spicy sparkle of pink pepper.

The base unfolds with warm, long-lasting notes of benzoin, cedar, guaiac wood, and tonka bean.

Despite the absence of a classic heart, the fragrance develops like a true story: from a bright citrus-fruity opening through floral nuances to a soft, woody-creamy trail.

Who It Is For and How to Wear It

Thanks to its rich, long-lasting trail, Puzzle No 1 is ideal for colder weather and evening occasions. It wears confidently and femininely, leaving an elegant impression.

This is a fragrance for those who love being the centre of attention and appreciate unconventional perfumery creations.

By the way, this fragrance has a matching men's version — they seem made for each other, like two halves of the same puzzle.

Similar Fragrances

If you liked Puzzle No 1, consider Voyages Imaginaires L'Échappée Sauvage, Bi-es Monster High - Lagoona Blue, or Dianne Brill Cosmetics Dianne Brill.

Each of them explores the theme of vibrant femininity and longevity in its own way.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Puzzle No 1 is built on contrast: the top notes—lemon, orange, peach, and pink pepper—create a sparkling citrus-spicy opening.

The base envelops with benzoin, cedar, guaiac wood, and tonka bean, lending a soft, slightly smoky woody-creamy character.

The fragrance unfolds gradually, moving from juicy freshness to a warm, enveloping trail.

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.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
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.
Sillage
Very conspicuous
5
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.
