Montale Arabians is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Arabians opens with Lavender and Cardamom, and settles into a heart of Vetiver, Patchouli, Rose, and Thyme. Montale's Arabians carries an Acquired verdict, an aromatic-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, smooth oud-leather scent, though some find it a bit too typical for Montale. Performance is a mixed bag for many, with some experiencing strong longevity while others get only a fleeting whisper. Consensus says it leans masculine, despite its unisex billing, and it's definitely not for the uninitiated.

About

Arabians opens with an aromatic burst of lavender and thyme mingled with warm, spicy cardamom. This quickly transitions into a richer heart where a smooth rose intertwines with earthy vetiver and patchouli. The drydown unveils a luxurious blend of animalic oud and supple leather, softened by ambergris and musk, creating a deep, resonant finish.
