Which Should You Buy?
This honeyed oriental is a divisive one. Fans adore its opulent, multifaceted sweetness, while detractors find it leans too medicinal or soapy. Expect a powerful, room-filling scent that evolves on your skin, but sniff before you commit.
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.
