The Character and History of the Fragrance
Ramon Monegal Siesta is a unisex eau de parfum released in 2023.
The composition was created for those who appreciate a soft, comforting scent without excessive projection. It combines woody, floral and gourmand nuances.
The fragrance reflects the aesthetic of Ramon Monegal, a Spanish niche perfume house founded in Barcelona in 2010.
Its approach brings together family craftsmanship, attention to natural associations and a distinctive signature style, so Siesta feels like a contemporary olfactory story about calm and the pleasure of the moment.
How Siesta Develops
From the very first minutes, the fragrance sounds fresh and warm at the same time: lemon adds a bright citrus sparkle, while cedar creates a dry, noble woody structure.
A honeyed accent softens the opening and lends it a delicate sweetness without turning the fragrance into a cloying dessert.
Iris, jasmine and vetiver emerge at the heart. Iris provides a powdery smoothness, jasmine makes the scent softer and airier, while vetiver adds a light green-woody facet.
Thanks to this combination, the floral aspect remains elegant and easy to wear, while the composition gradually becomes rounder.
The dry-down is built around tonka bean, vanilla and musk.
The base leaves a warm, creamy impression on the skin with a soft woody nuance, preserving the balance between gourmand appeal and restrained purity.
Siesta does not try to dominate—the fragrance unfolds close to the skin and sounds especially beautiful in a calm, relaxed atmosphere.
Longevity, Sillage and Application
Ramon Monegal Siesta has a subtle sillage, making it a good choice for those who prefer an intimate, unobtrusive scent.
It is suitable for the office, a walk, travelling or an evening spent relaxing, when you want to add warmth to your look without overwhelming the space around you.
For application on the skin, it is best to spray the fragrance and step into its cloud, then let the composition develop calmly without rubbing it in.
On clothing, one or two sprays are enough to preserve the light honey-vanilla trail and soft woody aftertaste.
In warm weather, Siesta smells airier, while in cooler conditions its tonka bean, vanilla and musk become noticeably more comforting.
Who This Fragrance Is For
Siesta was created as a unisex fragrance and unfolds equally naturally on both women’s and men’s skin.
It is worth trying for fans of delicate woody-floral compositions with moderate sweetness, as well as for anyone looking for an eau de parfum for everyday wear.
The perfumer behind the fragrance is Ramon Monegal. His signature is especially noticeable in Siesta’s layered balance: fresh lemon meets powdery iris, dry vetiver and a warm gourmand base.
