I tested this Legend EDP last week and it didn’t seem particularly special. I found it rich, yes, but nothing I hadn’t smelled before. It smells soapy, perhaps slightly floral… green. When dry, it smells almost identical to Tous Man Intense; I think the only difference is that in this Legend there’s no petit grain. I don’t know; it didn’t feel like an EDP to me. The longevity isn’t bad, but I repeat: “nothing out of this world”. I can’t imagine the EDT. For those who like it, I recommend trying Tous; you pay much less for similar or better quality.
I didn’t expect much from the perfume and was pleasantly surprised. It’s ideal for cold or mild weather. It’s not a monster in terms of longevity or sillage; this is somewhat poor, but it does the job. Rich aroma where the violet really comes through. Ideal for a date; it will be liked and won’t overwhelm your companion, unless you overdo it with the trigger. 7.5/10.
I was gifted a sample and it was the only one I needed to test Montblanc. It’s similar to the original, though the scent shifts slightly; yes, it’s darker, especially over time. There, it loses its characteristic cheerfulness and, for me, the magic. The performance is better; you can tell the difference between EDT and EDP, but it’s a pity the scent changes and it’s no longer so versatile. I stick with the original or Percival.
Elegant, masculine, mature, and serious fragrance. The opening is potent, though the evolution is linear yet pleasant. Not surprising in terms of notes, but it follows a logical, well-thought-out olfactory structure.
My current fragrance; simply a masterpiece, elegant and masculine. The leather accord gives its EDT sister a touch of distinction; it’s super versatile. Lasts more than 8 hours on skin and up to laundry on clothes. To me, after 2 hours it seems to have no projection, but if it does, I only catch it occasionally. You’ll receive compliments; I recommend it 100%.
Delighted; smells like a clean man.
A Montblanc Legend EDT, but a terrible one: overly synthetic with a bitter-aquatic hint that doesn’t convince me. The previous EDT was infinitely superior. It opens citrusy and aquatic with a woody base, but I can’t stand it. I don’t detect leather; it reminds me of Fierce by Abercrombie & Fitch, but lower quality and ugly. The trail is moderate to low, though sometimes it throws off some sillage after a few hours. I’m not keeping it; one of the worst new fragrances I’ve tried. Mega fail.
Very long-lasting; mine has just finished. To me, it’s an undervalued gem—I love it!
Was my wedding perfume; my wife and I absolutely loved it. The violet opening with bergamot and moss gave it a perfect twist that earned us a thousand compliments. Unfortunately, after a year, a 2022 batch oxidised horribly, losing all its notes. A total disappointment, quite sad really.
The oakmoss really stands out to me when it dries, but it doesn’t suit me at all; I find it too mature, dense, and old-school.
A very rich fragrance, perfectly suitable for a blind buy. It’s sweet and fresh, and it doesn’t feel expensive at all.
What can I say? It’s spectacular. I’m new to this perfume world and recently started my collection; so far, it’s my number one. It has a medium trail and amazing projection. The opening is weak, but once dried, it’s a completely different perfume. It lasts on my skin for 13 hours! I found it for about $40 at Costco in Mexico. I highly recommend buying it if it’s on discount; I didn’t feel like paying the store price ($120). It’s a total crowd-pleaser; I bought it blind and loved it. It’s not one of those perfumes you need to smell before buying, in my opinion. 10/10.
What a perfume! I think it’s my favourite in the collection. Although it’s not listed in the notes, I still detect a delicious pineapple aroma in the opening, though it disappears later, leaving that very masculine leather scent; when I wear it, my wife says it smells like a man. The only drawback is that, although it’s an eau de parfum, I would have liked a bit more longevity and projection, though it’s not bad. I will definitely keep buying it, hoping they don’t discontinue it like the late Legend Intense.
A very ozonic, synthetic opening, smelling only of alcohol as the description says. Low projection and longevity of around 6 hours. It stays close to the skin with marked woody, mossy, and leather notes. I would define it as an elegant fragrance for wearing with a suit. It reminded me of Legend EDT, and I thought it would be better in projection and longevity, but it isn’t.
A fragrance with contrasting but balanced aromas. I felt a very acidic opening of bergamot contrasted with white florals and a soft jasmine that projected to infinity. As it dried down, it shifted from citrus to floral and soapy, merging into the skin and transforming into an intense, woody magnolia floral with leather nuances, reminiscent of Dior Homme Original but with less darkness and more cleanliness. For me, the first part is unisex before becoming an elegant classic men’s fragrance: woody but smelling of shaving foam. It picks up in potency as it dries, becoming more woody without losing its sense of cleanliness, with those exquisite jasmine and magnolia notes. It’s a fragrance of contrasts: from very sharp and alcoholic to floral, soapy, and woody, ending in mature leather. A real treat that in 2024 is almost forgotten, sitting between retro and today’s sweetness. It’s a timeless quality scent for someone serious, clean, and elegant who doesn’t follow trends, powerful but not scandalous. This Legend is made to evolve on the skin; if you only test it fresh out of the bottle, it will seem citrusy and floral, but if you let it oxidise, it reveals its classic virtues. I was surprised that it stands out over other scents in the environment. If it’s not love at first sight, give it a chance to show its performance until the end of the day: it will be a good purchase.
If you’re looking for a fragrance for almost everything, this is the one. I bought it to change my signature scent, and it fits perfectly. The smell reminds me of Drakkar Noir or Abercrombie Fierce but much more modern; the woods and florals stand out with a totally masculine twist, adding a light leather note that’s not challenging. It’s one of those that most people like. For extreme heat or intense cold, there are better options, but I recommend it for evening wear in summer and daytime in winter. It lasts long enough (6-7 hours on skin) with medium projection. I love it, especially if you’re a fan of ‘alpha male’ or ‘bad boy’ fragrances, as it comes very close to that.
The projection holds up well for up to 6 hours (people who didn’t know I was wearing perfume have complimented me), and I could smell the trail; afterwards, it settles closer to the skin for more than 9 hours. I wore it on a hot day and it didn’t bother anyone at all. Just 5 sprays were more than enough.
Soapy violets wrapped in leather and submerged in a pool of ambroxan and moss. It’s a modern, mature twist on the fougère formula (metallic, 90s style, with citrus notes) of Platinum Égoïste, where freshness is sacrificed for more body. It leans towards blue fragrances due to the soapy tones of the violet-moss combo, which to my nose seem to add lavender and lots of ambroxan, with that powdery sensation from Fierce that softens the underlying leather. Markedly masculine, ideal for work, casual wear, semi-formal occasions, or dates if you want to convey cleanliness and seriousness without being cloying. Although it’s a derivative of very common scents (Fierce, Sauvage, Aventus, Polo Blue, etc.), it’s distinctive enough not to get lost. Good longevity (6-7 hours), with moderate projection and trail.
I value it more each day: it’s masculine, smells delicious, and projects well… nothing to envy from perfumes costing a hundred euros.
These are among my favourites. On my skin, the projection and longevity are top-tier, lasting around 4 to 6 hours. My friends have absolutely loved them.
Total fiasco; I don’t know if it’s my pH or if they sold me a faulty one, I can’t feel anything, I regret buying it blindly.
FIERCELY… YOUNG ADULT. It feels like yesterday the afternoon I reactivated memories of my high school days, when Legend EDT was my perfume for formal days alongside Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc for informal ones. After opening the box and seeing the bottle, spraying it in the blink of an eye transported me back to those passages between 2012 and 2015. The aroma of Legend always seemed particular to me, difficult to describe, and despite having experience after years smelling hundreds of perfumes, it still generates confusion. The opening shows an herbal freshness mixed with the cold, metallic sui generis accord of Fierce, though without Fierce’s harshness. The transition to the heart reveals an ambroxan that accentuates the metallic note and a subtle leather that darkens the composition and adds age versus its American reference. Finally, the base turns slightly soapy and sweet, while the darkness of the heart fades: the closing of a modernisation of a turn-of-the-century classic. ORIGINALITY Although it’s an improvement over A&F’s signature profile, Montblanc loses points for lacking genuineness. If A&F had launched it as Fierce EDP, the applause would have been complete for presenting a modernisation of its classic. CLIMATE I see it as fantastic for temperatures between 20 and 30°C. It works well in lower temperatures but you might prefer denser options, and if you exceed the interval, lighter options work better. VERSATILITY If you were a user of Fierce or Legend EDT in your youth and want to recall those days with a modern, sophisticated twist, go ahead. For new users, it seems like a perfect signature for the office from twenty-five years old, or as an option for formal events for younger people. PERFORMANCE At 20-25°C with five sprays (batch 04M17M052, Feb 2022): -Longevity and projection: the first hour projects at arm’s length, retreats to shoulders by the third hour, then to close to the skin until disappearing by the sixth or seventh hour. -Trail: leaves a trail when walking for the first hour or hour and a half. At 25-30°C with the same number of sprays: projection increased for half an hour (arm’s length), then performance similar to the previous one. Trail the same. REFORMULATIONS I haven’t compared other batches, so I have no information. SHOULD I RECOMMEND BUYING IT? Resounding yes. It seems like a perfect evolution for users who used the liquid of the American alpha male or as an alternative to current blue perfumes, standing out for having extra sophistication. I usually recommend options to open the spectrum before buying; in this case, yes, so you can know the twists of the Fierce profile: -Montblanc Legend EDT: sweeter, fresher, cheaper, and with adjusted performance. -A&F Fierce EDC: the original, which established the trend in the 2000s. Fantastic for remembering eras or setting yourself apart from what’s sold. -Chanel Égoïste Platinum EDT: shares the Fierce profile and takes it to a refined version with the classic powdery touch of the brand… paradoxically it came out years ago.
I agree with several reviews; the scent is very masculine, so masculine I’d say it’s for twenty-five years and up. Someone said it smells like Keanu Reeves in the lawyer movie and I couldn’t agree more; it smells like a clean man, in a white shirt. I don’t wear it for formal occasions but I have no regrets. It stands out on sunny, fresh autumn or spring days, temperate climates, though it also works in climates that aren’t too cold or too hot. It lasts at least seven hours and projects quite well for the first hour. A friend sitting a metre away told me it smelled very nice and she was wearing five colognes. If you can get it for under thirty-five dollars, highly recommended.
Versatility bottled. Smells like soap and wood, like a thirty-year-old man straight from the shower, a young father. It’s the classic aroma of male cleanliness, what you imagine Keanu Reeves smelled like in The Devil’s Advocate or that office mate with the side part. The best thing: its universality. Everyone will like it and it goes with any season, temperature, or moment. It probably has the greatest longevity and projection of the entire Montblanc line. Still, it’s a scent you’d wish lasted longer than it does. The trail is moderate for the first two to three hours, then it stays close to the skin where it accompanies you discreetly for the rest of the day.
I was really hoping I’d like it; I’d seen very good reviews. But it was a total letdown. It smells very generic and the longevity and projection are very poor, at least on my skin. It was a good price so I didn’t hesitate to buy it, but it wasn’t such a loss because I gave it to my dad. I wouldn’t recommend it. Scent: 6/10, Longevity: 3/10, Projection: 2/10, Originality: 2/10. That was my experience. Perhaps I suffered from olfactory fatigue, but that’s what I noticed after several days.
Sweet and powdery aroma, very nice. If you want to know what it smells like, try the Axe Apollo deodorant. The longevity is terrible for an EDP, maybe two hours at best. I won’t be buying it again.
This is the first perfume I’ve bought myself. It smells glorious, like straight out of the shower. The problem is the longevity; it doesn’t last more than two hours for me and projects very little. I suppose it’s my pH (it’s very weak); I’ve heard Montblancs have a bad reputation for fading quickly. A great disappointment because it smells so rich yet lasts so briefly is a shame.
The comments about poor longevity don’t add up for me. If someone says they can’t smell it when you’re together, ask them if they can still sense it; they’ll likely confirm they can, just not necessarily right up against your skin.
I don’t understand the complaints about longevity. On my skin, it lasts easily six hours and over fourteen on clothes. The bergamot at the start is the star note, with that ozonic touch. Delicious.
Smells exactly like Fierce, and let me tell you, I never got along with that one. If you like it, better test it before spending money or just buy the original straight away.
Aquatic, leather, floral, earthy… very rich.
One of the most disappointing perfumes in my collection. Very rich, soapy, floral scent. But projection and longevity are quite mediocre. I wore it to a salon event and it was brutally overpowered. It’s a pity because I liked the aroma, but simply it’s not worth throwing your money on a bottle that lasts two hours.
A reinterpretation that doesn’t seek to break moulds but to refine them. From the start, the bergamot adds a clean, contained brightness, while the violet leaves introduce a green, damp freshness, with a slight metallic nuance, like light filtering over wet stone. The heart flows without surprises: jasmine and magnolia wrapped in soft woods, without drama but with intention, like a hushed conversation in a bright room. Everything breathes serenity, without urgency. The base provides anchor and maturity: oakmoss and leather build an earthy, dark foundation, but not heavy. There are echoes of a damp forest, aged pages, and well-kept surfaces. The leather doesn’t intrude; it accompanies, hints, tracing an elegant line of continuity. It’s a composition that privileges measure over impact, the firm stroke over the exuberant signature. Designed for those who value discreet elegance and well-measured detail. A presence that doesn’t need to impose, but leaves a mark. Classic in its bearing, contemporary in its way of being. If it were classical music, it would be a slow movement by Rachmaninov: romantic, introspective, structured. In a jazz key, it would evoke Till Brönner: refined, melodic, with precise technique and contained atmosphere. What colour? A graphite grey with green and brown veins: contemporary sobriety in a natural key.
For me, it lacked a fresh or fruity touch in the dry-down to balance the dark leather, which is very good but too one-dimensional. It also lacked that contrast to avoid feeling repetitive or generic. Otherwise, it’s fine: citrus-floral opening, good trail and longevity. Let’s say if it’s a gift, it’s okay, but if you’re buying it, there are better options. I repeat: if they’d added a green or fresh contrast in the dry-down, but as it is, only the leather with a bit of wood makes it too serious for me.
I bought it blind and from the first day until the last, it never convinced me, not even the opening. My wife never gave me a single compliment; it’s one of those perfumes I’d spray so it would finish as quickly as possible. I don’t think the scent is the main problem, but rather its performance, which is extremely low, like almost everything from MB. I wouldn’t buy it again, and if someone gifted it to me, I’d sell it, because that scent doesn’t suit me; it smelled like mosquito repellent. I’m sorry.
Rich opening, fresh citrus touch, and soon evolves to reveal the wood and floral notes. In the dry-down it really lasts and fixes itself to the skin. In my case, it didn’t seem at all pleasant; the leather feels quite synthetic and gave me an unbearable insecticide aroma. It’s very projecting and long-lasting (quite a bit)… What a pity. For me, it’s not pleasant. Every nose has its own world, and from my world, it’s excluded.
It’s very good, suitable for any occasion. The only downside is it doesn’t last long, but it’s worth it for the price-to-quality ratio as it’s very cheap. I recommend it; it works for all seasons.
Montblanc Legend EDT gives this 100 times. Its longevity is a bit weaker, but with its red apple note, it’s pleasant for daily wear on fresh days. This Montblanc Legend EDP tells me nothing to it: it feels very mature, very woody, with aquatic citrus, and the leather stands out hugely. I like leather only as a subtle or supporting note, but here it’s the protagonist alongside the woods, giving an insecticide sensation. I don’t detect the other notes; it smells heavy, dense, old-fashioned, very mature, and vulgar. The difference is the skin: I wouldn’t wear it, nor gift it. Scent: 0, I don’t like it at all. Longevity: 8, it performs well on skin even when you dislike it. Projection: 7, with 15 sprays it goes over two metres for two or three hours, then stays close but you can still smell it for another three hours. Advice: don’t use in heat, it’s for autumn and winter. In a car or enclosed spaces, it makes me dizzy and I’d want to throw up. Tiring to the point of exhaustion. I don’t understand the votes for violet leaves; this is clearly leather and wood with aquatic citrus. Let others enjoy it. I see it only for someone over 60, and honestly, I don’t want to see or smell it on anyone.
It starts citrusy, so wait about four seconds before sniffing to avoid the alcohol shock. The citrus fades quickly, giving way to a violet leaf scent with a mossy touch reminiscent of fresh, damp wood. The violets smell like green leaves, sort of like Ego gel (sounds odd, but that’s the idea). What dominates most is that blend of violet and wood held back by jasmine. The horn note is there, but if I don’t mention it, you won’t notice because the other notes overpower it. The fresh gel-like touch clashes with the leather. Projection is low to medium; on the skin it lasts decently for five hours, but it’s not a bomb. Ideal for indoor settings or cold climates.
Hello, I’m new here but have been collecting perfumes for years. I picked this up on sale as I didn’t have anything from the Montblanc line. I loved it; although I’m not an expert in molecules, I detect wood, something sweet, and safe leather, and I think violets too. It’s a good buy: it lasts, smells lovely, is well-made, and works for all four seasons.
