To the fragrance: Montale Dark Vanilla

Don't believe it when Montale lists vanilla in the pyramid and it's in the name. If it's vanilla, it has to be exactly like this. Once again, we encounter intense vanilla. The opening simply blows you away with its power and complexity, but then everything becomes predictable. Even when spraying, you only smell vanilla 😌

When you look at such an elegant bottle, you expect something light and fresh, but in reality, you get an intense rose and a lot of patchouli. These notes lean into a certain dampness, and there's even a hint of mold. I'm not against a bit of earthy patchouli, of course, but here it seems too harsh. In the beginning, there are pleasant peach notes, but unfortunately, their scent disappears too quickly

To the fragrance: Asgharali Hams

The scent is truly impressive, it's so masculine and vibrant. You can sense black tea brewing with bergamot, and at the end, wood with a light smoky touch appears. At first, it might seem strange, but then you can't get enough of it, you want to inhale it again and again 🌿

The scent is very bright, with spicy and citrus notes, truly strong and rich. It perfectly invigorates and refreshes, filling you with energy and lifting your mood. For the summer season, I think it will be a good choice

The fragrance is beautiful, of course. Peppery-mossy, excellent longevity. But the packaging. Horrible. The bottles from Novaya Zarya are just repulsive. The plastic is cheap, everything looks like it was glued together on a whim, like from the nineties. And those awful little roses on the pouches - just unbearable. I have a little secret: the fragrance is completely different, although the bottle is almost the same. The scent is really beautiful, but it feels unpleasant on me. If they had made the bottle in the shape of a red rhombus and opaque, it would have been, in my opinion, much more interesting 😔

A floral scent with a light sweetness and bright spices. Overall, not bad, but I don't feel any uniqueness; I've encountered something similar in more expensive options. I doubt it justifies its price, unless it's just for the beautiful bottle 😕

It's great that they don't go unnoticed

The prices for this brand really raise questions. I agree that it's more like mediocre luxury. And frankly, with such a pyramid, talking about chypre is inappropriate ))))
