ChypreWhat does Montecristo (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with mandarin orange, lemon and coriander, fresh and slightly spicy. In the heart, clove, patchouli and cedarwood turn it woody and earthy. The base of leather, amber and tobacco dries down smoky and leathery, and the chypre and fougère accords give it a classic masculine character.
Its longevity is rated strong, though that view rests on only a few votes. The balance between fresh citrus and a warm, smoky base lets it sit between daytime and evening wear. Swiss Arabian Imperial and Creed Bois du Portugal have a close profile.
