Not convinced
At first, it smells fresh, quite citrusy, sweet, and somewhat piercing. I can clearly perceive the mandarin peel, the chocolate only slightly lingers in the background, and the pear is nowhere to be found. Soon, a barely identifiable floral note emerges. I think I can smell the rose, but not much else. I don't find Diamond Greedy gourmand, not even in the top notes. However, it definitely smells synthetic.

I received a sample of the fragrance as a freebie at a souk, so I approached it without any expectations. Without really knowing what I was smelling or what price range it belonged to, my first thought was: Smells like at DM in the fragrance department (translation = boring and cheap). Even after longer contemplation and a look at the fragrance notes, I can't shake this impression: Diamond Greedy indeed feels like one of the 100 drugstore fragrances that generally fall into this fresh-floral category.

Of course, it can't be completely compared to those. The longevity is too good for that: I could still smell Diamond Greedy after 6-7 hours. Even after a shower, it was still faintly detectable.

But is that worth the price? From my perspective, no. I am not convinced.

Starts off beautifully chocolatey, then becomes floral. Pleasantly less synthetic than usual for Montale. Good but not exceptional.

In the top note, pure gourmand, and once that fades, only floral remains. A pear wrapped in chocolate lies in a jasmine flower basket.

Smells like a feminine-floral NY cheesecake. The mandarin reminds me of Initio's Musk Therapy and the chocolate adds warmth. I love!

Diamond Hairspray! Nondescript, fresh floral notes meet fruity candies, in a blend that couldn't smell cheaper.

Starts deliciously fruity-sweet. Like candies
Clearly pear stays. Flowers remain subtle but spoil it a bit. Patchouli and musk make it more elegant.

Creamy-citrusy start, like freshly showered, pleasant but generic. Citrus gradually gives way to a jasmine/musk combo. Chocolate

The box with the key looks just like by Kilian :-)))

There's something scratchy and piercing in this scent that bothers me. It's a headache candidate for me, even though it's not that sweet.

Floral fresh, bright, the typical Montale DNA is missing. I see no reason to buy, it smells boring, you can find this elsewhere too. What a pity.
