What a surprise this is! After reading all of the reviews I really didn't know what to expect. I was thinking maybe a bit dryer sheetish? I love white musk but I haven't found one to knock me out...

This is one of my favorite Aouds from Montale. Safran Aoud is a combination of Red-Gold Safran, Aoud and Roses. This variation is light however one can really get a good whiff of the Safran note....

GORGEOUS!!!! I am a fan of rose scents, but this one is just amazing! Pure rose! The way a fresh bouquet of roses smells, with a hint of citrus. The ingredients are just superb, nothing artificial...

All I get is peach! I'm looking for some flowers here but nope - just peach. I do like it as I find the scent of peach attractive but it's a bit too fruity-sweet for me.

I realize that, per se, this costs the earth. However I ticked the price at less than the earth because, as with many Montales (and none more than this), a little goes way way way way far.

WOW! Heady, rich, essential-oil like jasmine. Has all the grapey, camphor-y, sweet, lily-like overtones of the flower. Beautiful, complex, shimmers wi/highlights. Same indolic, deep jasmine as...

I got this as a sample and was really expecting to love it. Sadly, I did not! The almond is too cloying for me and there is an underlying sickly smokey baby powder smell that makes me feel vaugly...

Generally I can overlook faulty topnotes in scents with such formidable amounts of ambergris - I love a good whale vomit drydown that much. The topnotes in Crystal Flowers on the other hand are...

Oh, no, this one does not work on me at all. It is dark and heavy and the rose is *so* cloying and overhwelming. I tried it a few times but it just doesn't do anything on me worth waiting for. ...

I hate to spoil the raving reviews on this one, but on me this smells like a citronella candle. I loved the description of the fragrance notes and in the bottle it smells enticing, but I can not...

This seems to be a nice combination of sweet, foody, deep and sultry, as far as vanilla is concerned. I do not get any oud notes at all in this. (Im surprised because Im well aware of Montale's...

Finally found a patchouli based scent that works with my skin chemistry. Didn't think I would ever encounter one because all prior tests gave me a raging headache or made me crinkle my nose....

I really love this - although I don't think I could wear it very often. It is a heady, lush, velvety rose wtith an amazing sexy deep undercurrent that is neither too spicy or dark or cuminy. I'm...

Since the House of Montale is built of oud, it should come as no suprise that Vanille Absolue contains a distinct oud note. And yet it was. It appears that oud is responsible for the smoky note...

Also called "Aoud Roses Petals" --- surprisingly not as medicinal as the other Montale aoud containing fragrances. There is that bitter bite at the start, but it's quickly taken over by a velvety...
