Montale - Fruits of the Musk EDP 100ml
We are as wary of the ubiquitous fruity-florals as the next perfume connoisseur. But that is because a tastefully done, non-syrupy-sweet, sophisticated fruity-floral is a rare thing indeed. We are very happy to say that we have finally found the perfect fruity fragrance, among Montale’s newest offerings. With its breezy, almost transparent top notes, Fruits of the Musk is delicate, feminine and gauzy, and very far removed from the typical overwhelmingly sweet fruity fragrances. As the scent progresses, it acquires an unexpected, sensual depth; in the heart of Fruits of the Musk, the gossamer fruit and berry notes are replaced with luscious roses with a dark, oud-like undertone, which we came to expect and love in Montale creations. The woody, musky base is sultry and nocturnal, a breathtaking contrast to the gentle, sunlit top notes. This is a refined composition, complex and deep, and the one that could never possibly be called “girly”. Fruits of the Musk notes strawberry leaves, mandarin, bergamot of Italy, blackberry, rose essence of Bulgaria, white musk, raspberry, grey amber
