Intense Black Aoud

by Pierre Montale

Montale Intense Black Aoud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Pierre Montale. Intense Black Aoud settles into a heart of Mandarin, Musk, Rose, and Patchouli. Montale's Intense Black Aoud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper beast, a seriously potent Montale for those who want to make an entrance. Intense Black Aoud is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, not for the faint-hearted, but if you're after nuclear projection and longevity, you've found your match.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its monstrous projection and longevity, this scent is far too powerful for an office setting where it would overwhelm. It's best suited for formal evenings or dates where a bold statement is desired, and its intense character makes it unsuitable for casual daytime wear or sport.

About

Intense Black Aoud hits you with a rich, dark wave of woody oud and opulent rose, immediately asserting its presence. A bright, zesty mandarin cuts through the initial intensity, offering a momentary glint of freshness. As it settles, warm, earthy patchouli and a deep, musky undertone emerge, blending with the animalic aspects of the oud to create a complex, almost brooding aroma that lasts simply forever.
