    Very potent, a rose with character and a trail that leaves no one indifferent.

    Montale is famous for its oriental side and I love those fragrances, so logically I should adore their style. However, with the exception of the jewel Black Aoud, it’s not my case. Their perfumes last and project immensely, but the scents seem disconnected to me and sometimes vulgar. I’m not saying I don’t respect the brand’s fans; everyone has their tastes. Red Aoud smells of milk chocolate (not dark) and dust, a gourmand touch that fits in the kitchen. It leans feminine though it is unisex. Its fixation is indestructible and its density makes it ideal only for autumn, winter, and special occasions. Try it first; it has a very particular aroma.

    For less money, you get a Ferrari of oud that smells like the gods. They share the same components and exact longevity; the cumin gives it a strange touch, but generally, they are twins.

    They say it’s better than Black Aoud, is that true? I’m already thinking of ordering Sweet Oriental Dreams, looking forward to your comments.
