Question:
I recently purchased quite a few Montales and I have never been so happy with a niche line. The highest rating goes to Black Aoud layered with Crystal Flowers. Following very closely is Chypre Fruit and Soleil de Capri. Crystal Flowers is a perfect, elegant day scent and the saffron note is wonderful. Adding the Black Aoud makes the combination so seductive. Chypre Fruit is creamy and slightly tropical and SdC has a citrus opening that is super refreshing in warmer weather
The only one I had a hard time with, and I attribute it to my skin chemistry is Jasmin Full....they really should capitalize the FULL in the title..... heady and indolic???. I could not breath, and that is not in a good thing. I read tons of positive reviews on JF so I imagine that sampling it is the best way to go with this one.
My future Montale acquisitions will be Attar and definitely a few more of the Aoud series.

I don't for certain but I looked at Serge Lutens and you are responsible for import taxes!!!! Try Maisonstinky's website he gives BN members a discount.
