Which Should You Buy?
Montale's latest is a divisive beast: some hail it as a creamy, dense honeyed musk, others smell baby wipes, public toilets, or play-doh. It's not a crowd-pleaser, but a distinctive, powdery-sweet enigma tailored for those who dare to be different.
Scandalous chases Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal's honeyed gourmand-floral formula, keeping the same blood orange-into-honey arc. It's a sweeter, simpler take - the gardenia-patchouli heart reads flatter than Scandal's more layered honey accord, and the caramel base fades faster than the original's long, syrupy drydown.
