Montale Paris Dark Purple

Mostly juicy and ripe, like peach, berry or apple. Underneath that, the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend.

It opens on plum and orange, moves through rose, red berries and patchouli, and settles on musk, teak wood and amber.

• plum: dark sweet fruit, almost wine-like
• orange: round, sweet citrus. Warmer and less cutting than lemon

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
