Montale Chypre Fruite is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Pierre Montale. Chypre Fruite opens with Bergamot, Rose, and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Mango, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Montale's Chypre Fruite carries an Acquired verdict, a tropical-led wear.

Divisive. Some find Montale Chypre Fruite a refined, modern chypre with a juicy, tropical twist. Others smell nothing but generic fruit, or worse, 'rotten fruit and burnt plastic'. Definitely test before you commit, as it's a beast if it doesn't agree with you.

About

Imagine a lush, sun-drenched rainforest, dense with ripening mangoes and exotic flora. Chypre Fruite opens with an immediate hit of indistinct tropical fruit, brightened by bergamot, before settling into a sophisticated heart of jasmine and a soft rose. The base grounds the fruitiness with earthy patchouli and rich oakmoss, all enveloped in a clean, powdery musk that gives it a surprisingly refined edge.
