If I only was a patchouli type of a person... but don't get me wrong, I do appreciate well-blended, nicely done patchouli. I purchased a bottle of this along with Sweet Oriental Dream (my fave) as...

I have never been a musk type of a person... that is until I smelled Clair de Musc... but that's something I'll review here later:) So when I discovered I DID love this transparent, dreamy,...

I would love this if it didn't have patchouli in it. The undertones are rich, deep, smooth and edible, and aside from a nice woody aspect, the patchouli has just too much of that hippie-oil scent...

This was my very first Montale, the fragrance that introduced me and my wallet to this house from which I now own many full bottles so yes, a winner in my book. This is a chypre, no mistake. Here...

I may not be the right person to write a review on this one, as I don't like patchouli and based on this perfume, I don't like musk in large quantities either. If you like NR for her, and that...

Montale is making me go broke, no lie! Their fragrances have the sillage and tenacity of the old school perfume bombs worn by my dear Grandmother and Great Aunts. I remember these scents fondly...

I really wanted to love this one and expected to do so, but I do not. This has some pretty notes imbedded in it and is youthful and sweet. Waaaaaaay too sweet... like marshmallows triple dipped in...

The review below mine is dead-on. This is a classic Montale in sillage and fortitude. Montale has become my favorite perfume house, of course there are some fragrances of theirs that don't mesh...

Montale has created a beast and Black Aoud is thy name! Raw, unbridled sexuality in a little black bottle. This is as subtle as a catagory 5 hurricane with just about as much humanity. This...

This is an unusual, powerful and sexy fragrance from Montale's Aoud collection. Truly yummy for lack of a better word, although I would hardly classify this as gourmand. The notes...

Well I am shocked that a true floral scent exists that does not give me an instant headache or make my stomach do flips. This is a true interpretation of the Tiare flower. Starting off intense,...

What a great, green, warm weather scent. It starts out with a blast which seems a bit medicinal, like a muscle rub, or Noxema. Somehow, both of these items are comfort scents for me. My dear...

Well this cetainly does not reflect its given name. What I expected was a sharp, rooty ginger blended with a bit of an animalic musk. What I got was a fruity (berries?), sparklingly, sweet scent....

Woodstock in a bottle. Both the muddy Woodstock of '99, and the hippie one of '69. At first it starts out extremely soil-ly like you just dug out of your own grave and are now covered in fresh...

I think I am in love! This is an intoxicating fragrance! It's really heavy on gardenia with a sweet coconut note and a "dirty", musk-y base that gives this perfume an edge. Pretty similar to...

I gave this two lippies and not just one because it's a Montale (which usually means quality ingredients and clever concept) and I gave this two lippies and not three because of the same reason (I...

MMmm... I wasn't expecting to like this from first spray. It initially smelled remarkably similar to a "black" car fragrance that I keep under my driver's seat. The pepper did make my skin tingle...
