A sweet, fruity and feminine fragrance. Initially, synthetic raspberry dominates alongside the musk, but it then matures and becomes harmless; that musk isn’t animalic, but has a sugary touch. It lacks Montale’s typical sillage, yet its longevity is excellent. It’s not unique due to being commercial, but when detailed, it shines as a special raspberry, though every nose perceives it differently. If you’re looking to buy Montale blind and enjoy sweet red fruits, this is one of the best options.

I agree with the girl who says it smells like Lush. It doesn’t bother me, but I don’t love it either; in fact, it gives me the sniffles to wear it. Of Montale, I only liked Chocolate Greedy; I understand none of the others.

It smells like the ‘Amberries’ gummies from my country: sweet raspberry and blackberry with an acidity to prevent dizziness. The rose steals a bit of the spotlight from the fruits, leaving a soapy scent that I like and makes it more feminine. For the price, I expected more, but I don’t dislike it for being realistic; there are few with these notes. The trail is heavy; with just three sprays, it’s noticeable, so don’t overdo it. It’s not childish, but youthful due to the gummy touch without being cloying. Ideal for fresh summer or spring, not for cold climates.

What happened to Montale with this? 🙁 It crosses into commercial territory. The opening is a shrill explosion of sweet, fresh and acidic fruits, cheerful but they can give a headache. After a few minutes they calm down and mix with the musk, resulting in a laundry detergent smell, summer edition. I’m not talking about clean sheets, but the detergent bottle. Although it softens over time and sits close to the skin, I don’t like smelling detergent, especially considering the price.

What has happened to Montale with this fragrance? 🙁 It feels far too commercial. It opens with a shrill explosion of sweet, fresh, slightly acidic fruits—very cheerful, but potentially headache-inducing. After a few minutes, the fruits settle and blend with the musk, resulting in a TRUE LAUNDRY DETERGENT SCENT, summer edition. I’m not talking about clean sheets, but the smell of opening the bottle. Although it softens with time and sits close to the skin, I dislike smelling like detergent, especially given the price.

Blind buy: on my skin it lasts about 8 hours with a marked opening from the rose and harmonious musk. At 20 minutes the raspberry stands out with citrus notes before the fruitiness. The opening didn’t impact me as I expected, but when the fruits came out I loved it. It’s not a bomb, but it’s present; ideal for summer or spring outings.
