"Michael is an opulent white-floral Eau de Parfum created as a signature fragrance for women. Its opening combines airy freesia with Chinese osmanthus, tamarind, and incense for a luminous yet slightly enigmatic introduction. The heart is dominated by tuberose and arum lily, supported by peony, iris, and orris root for a creamy, powdery floral effect. Musk, cashmere wood, and vetiver form a soft but polished woody base. The overall character is elegant, sensual, and distinctly floral, with a refined musky finish. Originally launched in 2000, it is now regarded as a discontinued classic with collector interest."

Reviews Summary

“Michael is generally experienced as a lush, tuberose-centered white floral with strong projection and above-average longevity. Its incense, iris, orris, musk, and woody notes give the floral core a distinctive powdery, smoky, and slightly animalic depth. The overall effect is glamorous, opulent, and mature rather than airy or minimalist.”
