New Rose Variety Clone: "Montale Night OudRose"
In my opinion, it is not surprising that no one has yet commented on "Rose Night" by Montale.
Imagine if we had never smelled any other rose or oud fragrances individually, neither in perfumes nor in nature, except for Montale scents?
We might assume that this typical Montale scent is a unique fragrance plant or note, perhaps even a fragrant resin, namely: "Montale OudRose"
I applied "Rose Night" and noted: For a moment, something citrusy flies by, then follows a sweaty, medicinal note. And as is typical in many Montale fragrances, inevitably trailing behind is a hybrid rose, the Montale Oudrose.
I quite like that. But why are there so many clones of this at Montale? Although no oud is listed, I can smell it without a doubt. Patchouli plays an unnoticeable role. There could also be peonies and synthetic rose geranium involved. Because the initially very dense scent becomes a bit lighter, slightly floral, powdery, although I find "Rose Night" a bit too sweet and overwhelming. I taste it with a certain soapiness on my tongue.
There is room for speculation here, as we all perceive scents very differently.
However, for me, the symbiosis of "RoseOud" remains dominant, accompanied by a metallic accord and a somewhat synthetic moderate human body sweat scent note.
For everyday use, I find "Rose Night" a bit too intense. Longevity and sillage are quite satisfactory. Unisex? A definite: I don't know!

I've only experienced "Black Aoud" from Montale as a typical rose-oud combo, and I still think the scent is fantastic. But it's true, it doesn't need to be a thousand and one variations; at some point, the cow has been milked dry...

I love your comments! They’re informative, get straight to the point without being lengthy, and are just a pleasure to read. I can skip the fragrance. Huge thanks!

Great comment! I like the scent... even if it's a bit too feminine for me. It's true, the Montale fragrances do seem to be quite abundant!

It seems plausible to me that this brand can eventually get on your nerves when it comes to the McNuggets.
