Hold onto your hats because this one can do some acrobatics. Sweet, purple plums swing through the air with a scandalously rich, black-as-night black cherry. What follows is a somersaulting mélange of cool and warm spices, bursting bouquets of rose and tuberose made even more wild by a hedonistic checklist of all the amber, vanilla, leather, and sugary musk probably allowed by law. It’s a floral, it’s a gourmand, it’s a leather, it’s an oud, it’s outrageously layered and completely mesmerizing. A fine trail of incense snakes behind the uproarious procession, a meditative finale to the complexities of infinity.
Notes include cherry, plum, saffron, pink pepper, cardamom, oud, leather, sandalwood, rose, tuberose, vetiver, tobacco leaf, amber, vanilla sugar, tonka, and musk.
- Montale is the creation of Pierre Montale, who worked as an official perfumer for the Saudi royal family before returning to Paris to introduce Western perfume lovers to the rich world of Middle Eastern perfumery ingredients.
