Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amber & Spices

Divisive, powerful, and unmistakably Montale, 'Amber & Spices' is a polarizing powerhouse. Expect a bold, woody-spicy kick that some adore for its exotic sensuality, while others find it aggressively synthetic and overwhelming.

Our Verdict - Shams Al Rehab

This isn't for the faint of heart - Shams Al Rehab is a powerhouse that laughs in the face of subtlety. Expect an assertive, unapologetic warmth; it's a bold Arabian statement, not for everyone, but undeniable for those who dare.

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong sillage, this isn't suitable for office wear. Its exotic, warm spicy character makes it perfect for dates and evening events, with some finding it versatile enough for special casual occasions.

Best For:

Date Formal

Given its strong, assertive nature, this perfume is ill-suited for the office or casual daytime wear, where it might overwhelm. It excels in intimate date settings or formal evening events where its rich, oriental character can truly shine.
