Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aoud Leather EDP

Aoud Leather from Montale is a beast-mode, divisive scent. You'll either love this bold, refined leather with oud and citrus or find it too harsh and synthetic. Definitely sample before committing.

Our Verdict - Phantom EDP

This one's a proper beast, a bold amber-woody punch in the face. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you want to make an entrance, Phantom's got you covered.

Season and Occasion Fit

Aoud Leather

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Given its beastly projection and longevity, Aoud Leather is often too much for an office setting, risking overwhelming co-workers. It excels in colder weather and evening events, making it ideal for dates and formal occasions. Its strong character also works for stylish casual wear when you want to make a statement.

Phantom

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

Built on amber, warm spicy and woody - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Its high impact and strong sillage make it unsuitable for an office setting, but perfect for making a statement on a date or at a formal evening event. The deep, warm accords don't lend themselves to casual daytime wear or sport.
