Ormonde Jayne Montabaco Cuba is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Montabaco Cuba opens with Bergamot, Orange, Mandarin, and Freesia, settles into a heart of Woody, Jasmine, Magnolia, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Suede, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Ormonde Jayne's Montabaco Cuba carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

A fresh, fruity twist on the original Montabaco that's a crowd-pleaser for some, yet leaves others scratching their heads over its 'Cuban' identity and lack of prominent tobacco. Its limited edition status adds to its appeal for collectors.

About

Opens with a lively burst of juniper and zesty citrus from orange and mandarin, giving way to a heart of delicate florals like jasmine and magnolia alongside a subtle woody tea note. The drydown settles into a smooth suede and creamy vanilla, underpinned by ambergris and a hint of tobacco that some find elusive. It’s a sophisticated blend of fresh and warm.
