8 Best Montale Fragrances for Women

Montale Intense Cafe Review

Topping our list of best Montale perfumes for ladies is Intense Cafe EDP, an amber vanilla fragrance catering to both genders. The perfume boasts a Middle Eastern vibe and is best described as a “Turkish delight dipped in a vanilla latte.”

A spritz of Intense Cafe perfume fills the air with refreshing floral notes. The intoxicating yet harmonious combination of sensual rose and gourmand accords is universally appealing. It evokes the enchanting smell of a creamy vanilla mocha dappled with roses. At the tail, amber and white musk result in a beautiful, slightly masculine trail as the perfume comes to a grand finale tinged with rich, nutty coffee.

Intense Cafe is simply irresistible. Rich and indulgent, it smells gorgeous and performs incredibly well. The sillage and projection are spectacular, but the perfume is not cloying or overbearing. This is an easy-to-wear scent you can wear through the seasons, but more so during fall and winter.

Roses Musk Review

Montale Roses Musk is an exquisite fragrance comprising roses in glorious bloom and soft musk. Introduced in 2009, it is classified as a floral woody musk and possesses a sweet, strikingly realistic rose aroma that makes the perfume a firm favorite with Montale followers.

This artfully blended masterpiece is simply breathtaking. Incredibly light and airy, it hints at sweetness. At the same time, the blend of fresh rose accords and clean-smelling musk gives birth to a scent that’s downright addictive. Not to be left out, jasmine adds depth plus a delicate sweetness.

Roses Musk Eau de Parfum comes in an aesthetically pleasing pink bottle that, along with the classy rose aroma, gives it a decidedly feminine aura. Needless to say, it makes a stunning addition to any fragrance collection.

Overall, the fresh, floral fragrance has remarkable staying power and versatility. It works for the workplace, casual, and formal settings.

Chocolate Greedy Review

Who doesn’t love chocolate? This incredibly scrumptious perfume doubles as a sultry gourmand skin scent and one of the best chocolate fragrances.

A single spritz of the delightful chocolate scent immerses your senses in the delectable aromas of creamy chocolate, coffee, and vanilla. The attractive core has a powdery quality, adding a luxurious edge to this mouthwatering composition. Finally, a delicate, sensual base envelops the subtle fragrance, wrapping things off neatly.

Rich and utterly delicious, Chocolate Greedy’s intense aroma seems to last forever. Contrasting with this dominant scent is a fruity, tart twist brought in by the citrus accords. Meanwhile, dried fruits usher in a sticky sort of sweetness, whereas rich, dark coffee undertones add a bitter aftertaste.

 Chocolate Greedy is a fitting companion for colder months. You can wear the comforting fragrance day or night, on all occasions. The perfume comes in a classy silver bottle.

Dark Purple Review

A scent tailored for fans of fruity scents, Dark Purple, came into the limelight in 2011. The perfume is characterized by a sweet, rich, and intoxicating fruity-floral aroma.

This bewitching, feminine fragrance welcomes you with luscious plum and zesty orange. Enriching these intense top notes is a core hosting a floral bouquet.

This mid-layer is then anchored by a base with patchouli, whose dark earthiness intensifies the perfume’s richness while incorporating woodsy nuances to balance out the florals.

Dark Passion Eau de Parfum progresses beautifully. From the onset, the mouthwatering plum delivers the dark richness that echoes the name of this sultry perfume. Meanwhile, the light freshness from orange accords lifts off some of the heaviness, adding a bubbly vibrancy that meshes well with the sweet yet tangy berries.

Season-wise, Dark Purple is a winter/fall fragrance though it can stretch into spring. It’s versatile and super long-lasting; thus, a little will go a long way.

The fragrance comes in a burgundy-toned bottle, symbolizing power and confidence.

Honey Aoud Review

Montale Honey Aoud is a deliciously complex fragrance with a powerful personality. Released in 2015, the intense perfume is a harmonious balance of honey and agarwood combined with warm spices and woody notes.

The perfume comprises the mixed aromas of honey, florals, patchouli, and cinnamon over a bed of Madagascan vanilla, Laotian Agarwood, leather, and amber. A quick spritz reveals the unmistakable aroma of honey – intensely sweet with subtle floral facets.

Next come cinnamon notes, injecting warmth, more sweetness, and spiciness. Meantime, oud’s rich, woody-nutty accents deepen the composition, making it dark and heavy.

This well-rounded fragrance delivers outstanding performance. It has enough longevity to take you through a full day at the office and on to nighttime activities. Additionally, you can wear it casually or formally.

Soleil de Capri Review

Soleil de Capri is an invigorating citrusy scent introduced by Montale in 2007. It promises to transport you to a tropical vacation or somewhere along the Mediterranean.

In this fresh fragrance, a harmonious blend of citrus accords encircles a floral core over a base of musk and spices sourced from the Mediterranean. Great for the summer or spring, it’s designed for a sexy woman who exudes self-confidence like she wears a smile – effortlessly.

Soleil de Capri delivers on its promise. For starters, it opens warm and sunny. Secondly, the citrusy head notes are tangy with a hint of sweetness, the overall effect being a refreshing aroma. Kumquat, a tart orange-like fruit, adds to this fresh feel, offering a blast of sweet-sour citrusy flavor.

Like most of the Montale creations, this is a fragrance with pretty good longevity. Additionally, it’s playful, young-at-heart, and downright appealing. Finally, the warm, musky bottom evokes sun-kissed skin.

While it’s the perfect summer scent, there’s no need to restrict yourself to casual settings. Soleil de Capri also works for formal settings, its attractive scent making a great accompaniment to a party or an evening out.

Rose Elixir Review

From the name, you can tell this perfume is all about the rose note. It’s a gorgeous, powdery, fruity, and strikingly feminine rose. On top of that, Rose Elixir Eau de Parfum exudes an elegance uncommon in most fruity fragrances and is neither cloying nor saccharine.

The rose accord combines with a scrumptious blend of strawberries and citrus. Meanwhile, white florals enrich the fresh roses over an ambery, musky base teased with vanilla. The result is a sweet, velvety smooth, beautifully layered formulation.

Rose Elixir sports decent sillage and projection. The performance is not outstanding, but the aroma lasts fairly long and leaves behind an enticing trail.

This Eau de Parfum is the kind of fragrance that goes well with a super feminine, super confident woman. If that sounds like you, wear it in the summer. You’ll definitely get noticed!

Pure Gold Review

Montale Pure Gold Eau de Parfum is part of the Montale Golden Collection. Here, sparkling florals and fruits vividly capture the perfume’s name.

Pure Gold bursts open with fruity apricot and orange. Shortly after, the luscious fruits settle on a layer of fragrant white florals, then the entire mix lands on a base brimming with vanilla and patchouli. The ending glows with a luminous essence. Sweet and clean, it literally sweeps you off your feet before culminating in a crisp, musky finale.

One thing that stands out with this inviting cologne is its delicate, aromatic vibe that makes it suitable for all situations. Business meetings, casual encounters? All good.

As for staying power, this is a fragrance bomb that’s sure to make heads turn. Expect the perfume to last the entire day and way into the night, especially in warmer weather.
