Helpful Review
Unique but not good enough for the price.
Montabaco Intensivo is more than likable but the love is not there. It is the kind of unique, green, fresh scent I am looking for but nothing about it inspires me or makes me smile. For $365 USD it has to make me say “Wow” soon after I spray it. After three wearings I am still asking myself, “Do you like it? How does it smell in the air? Is it really projecting enough? Are you enjoying it?” That said, it’s greater later! I enjoy it progressively more as it dries down… after 2-3 hours. If I keep wearing it, I may grow to appreciate it one day, but I do not feel like growing into it right now. I may circle back to it next year.
Montabaco Intensivo is worth trying though! It is long lasting, well blended, sophisticated and will make a great signature scent. It smells rich. No one will smell like you when you wear it. It’s worth the price if you like it.
UPDATE: I circled back to my 5 ml decant and wore it three days in a row. I appreciate the uniqueness of Montabaco Intensivo now. Really appreciate it. Love it! My nose is maturing. A refreshing change from all the sweet spicy fragrances I often wear. Smells much better in the air. Trying to smell it on your skin is inadequate. However, it does smell better on skin the more it dries down.
