Oud Island

by Pierre Montale

Montale Oud Island is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Pierre Montale. Oud Island opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Oud, Black Leather, Tuberose, and Floral, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Montale's Oud Island carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - this ain't your typical oud adventure. It's a surprising citrus-leather concoction, fresh yet substantial, with Montale's signature beastly performance. It's polarising, but if it clicks, it really clicks.

While its freshness makes it surprisingly versatile, the strong projection and unique leather-tobacco drydown mean it's better suited for evenings out or casual wear rather than a quiet office. It's an excellent choice for a date, offering a unique and memorable profile.

About

Oud Island bursts open with a vibrant, non-sweet citrus medley of bergamot, lemon, and prominent tangerine. This bright start quickly warms into a heart of smooth black leather and soft, woody sandalwood, uplifted by subtle floral hints. The journey concludes with a creamy, lightly smoky base of vanilla, tobacco, and amber, grounding the initial freshness with a refined depth. The 'oud' remains more of a gentle woody whisper.
