Montale Aoud Greedy is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Pierre Montale. Aoud Greedy opens with Lemon and Licorice, settles into a heart of Floral Notes, Amber, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vetiver. Montale's Aoud Greedy carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Aoud Greedy is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it licorice bomb that manages to evoke both vintage charm and modern intrigue. Don't let the name fool you - there's no oud here, just a bold, unique aromatic experience.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a sharp, almost medicinal blast of licorice and a fleeting citrusy lemon, making way for a heart of earthy patchouli and warm amber, blended with subtle florals. The base settles into a comforting, slightly masculine musk and vetiver, leaving an interesting, somewhat nostalgic trail. Think old-school grooming with a sweet, spicy twist.
