4. Montabaco Ormonde Jayne 2012 Parfum

What YSL Grain de Poudre should have been.
Upon my first wearings, the Mountain Air accord and the tea/suede combo was very prominent which I really loved. All I could think of is it was a better version of YSL's Grain de Poudre who shares those same notes, but would always end up cloying me (probably due to the musk in the base). I can't imagine Montabaco ever feeling cloying. It's the easiest scent to wear out of my entire collection. It's fresh, clean, well blended and unique
After a week of wearing it every day, the orange replaced the tea smell on my skin which I really don't care for. That was my first gripe with it other than the price (I have a decant).
Lastly I could never detect any hint of tobacco, which is a shame because it was one of the main selling points.
I'm gonna enjoy wearing my decant but I will not be getting a full bottle.
