Montale Fantastic Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Fantastic Oud settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, Tobacco, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Leather, Sandalwood, and Ambergris. Montale's Fantastic Oud carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

A divisive oud for some, a crowd-pleasing Montale for others. If you're after a warm, rich, and unapologetically masculine scent that screams 'look at me', this is your guy. Don't expect subtlety, do expect compliments and a whole lot of attention from this beast mode fragrance.

About

Fantastic Oud opens with a smooth, approachable oud, far from the barnyard variety. This quickly settles into a rich tapestry of dry tobacco and a subtle, almost honeyed sweetness, intertwined with warm amber and smoky incense. A soft rose and earthy patchouli provide depth, while a luxurious leather accord and creamy sandalwood emerge in the dry down, creating a sensual and complex experience.
