Rose with a bite... Ouch
Immediately after spraying it on, a great authentic rose emerges. Like a freshly picked rose from the garden - "I love it, I want more of it" is my immediate thought.
The term "Intense Café" is a little misleading for me. Unfortunately, I can't smell the café at all, not even a little bit. Many people write that the café slowly becomes more and more pronounced over time, but unfortunately not in my nose. I only smell rose and...
Now comes the big BUT:
Unfortunately, as with many other Montale fragrances, after 5 minutes the scent becomes so synthetic that it overpowers everything. This synthetic is metallic, acrid and gets into my head so much that I get a headache.
I find it unbearable, even unwearable. Yet this fragrance has so much potential and starts so well.
As I said, I feel the same way about many Montale fragrances, and I'm not the only one. I would be very interested to know what triggers this "bite". Zara has a dupe for it (Rose Gourmand), which is unfortunately 1 to 1 the same.
Too bad, I would love to have this great rose as a wearable perfume for myself. Unfortunately, it's not meant to be.

Expectations absolutely exceeded
To be honest, I don't understand the bad reviews at all. For me (as a vanilla lover) one of the most beautiful and unique vanilla fragrances.
Sure - you can't expect miracles at this price. But you still get an enchanting, cool,...

Uniquely good
This fragrance is unique. Uniquely good!
It starts with a light ginger note, followed by something citrusy and green. A spiciness emerges in the background, but you don't notice it too much yet. Over time, it changes more and more and becomes even...
