Montale Paris 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 citruses and musk, moves through jasmine and rose, and settles on amber, jasmine and rose.

• citruses: a general citrus impression rather than any one fruit
• musk: soft, warm and skin-like. More the impression of clean skin than a smell of its own

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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