What does Montecristo smell like?

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as good, with longevity scoring a little higher. The number of votes is small, so these impressions are still tentative. It is unisex, warm and dense, relying more on depth than on show.

The scent reads as one piece: the sweet spice of honey and cinnamon leans on the earthy, resinous depth of oakmoss and cistus. Civet and castoreum add an animal warmth, while frankincense and Laotian oud bring a smoky, woody weight. Floral and powdery accents soften this heavy picture. Incense Wood Spirit and Santal Noble have a close profile.
