Montale Paris Intense Roses Musk

Mostly the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend. Underneath that, soft skin-like warmth, more the smell of clean skin than a scent of its own.

It opens on rose, moves through amber, jasmine and rose, and settles on amber and musk.

• rose: the flower itself, landing anywhere between jammy and fresh green depending on the variety used
• amber: warm sweet resin, soft and slightly powdery. More of a glow than a sharp smell

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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