Montale Amber Musk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Amber Musk opens with Amber, settles into a heart of Musk and Powdery, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Ambergris. Montale's Amber Musk carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

Divisive and deceptive: some love it as a subtle skin scent, others claim it's barely there and a waste of cash. If you like 'Not a Perfume', this might be for you, but don't expect a Montale powerhouse.

About

Amber Musk is a soft, enveloping fragrance built around a warm amber accord, beautifully complemented by a delicate, clean musk. There's a subtle powdery nuance that adds a touch of sophistication, while a whisper of cedar provides a grounding woody base. The animalic ambergris lends an intriguing, skin-like depth, creating a scent that feels both intimate and personal.
