Notorious XO, a 2025 masculine fragrance from M. Micallef composed by Daniela Marty, is spicy and gourmand in equal measure, with a strong fresh, watery side and lighter musky, amber and leather notes. It contrasts cool water with warm cognac and praline.
Watery notes give a fresh, cool opening, set against cinnamon, pepper and cardamom, which bring warmth and bite. Cognac adds a rich, boozy depth, and praline a nutty, caramelised sweetness. As it dries down, vanilla and tonka bean create a creamy, smooth sweetness, while leather, oakmoss, sandalwood, amber and musk give a darker, earthy and slightly animalic base.
This is a confident, evening-oriented masculine scent. The cognac, spice and praline combination suits autumn and winter, nights out, dates and celebrations, while the watery freshness helps it feel modern rather than heavy. It should appeal to men who like boozy gourmands with spice and leather, and who want a fragrance with a bold, sociable presence.
