Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Roses Musk
Roses Musk from Montale. It's a proper 'love it or hate it' affair. One smell and you'll know where you stand - either it's a 'badass boss chick' vibe or a synthetic nightmare. Don't go blind buying this one, mind.

Our Verdict - Black Stone
Black Stone is a seductive floral powerhouse that punches well above its weight category. It's a proper grown-up scent for those who like their florals rich and just a little bit naughty, divisive for some, but a love affair for many.

Given its strong projection and longevity, Roses Musk isn't ideal for office wear, which aligns with community feedback on its intensity. It truly shines for date nights and casual outings, exuding a confident elegance that's well-received in social settings, as many reviews highlight its compliment-getting nature.

Black Stone

Seasons

Best For:
Spring

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong, rich floral presence, Black Stone is best reserved for occasions where you want to make a statement, like a date or a formal event. It's perhaps a bit too potent for an office setting or casual wear, as its projection could be overwhelming.
