Aoud Jasmine from Montale opens with a crisp, juicy blend of apple, pear, and mandarin orange, creating a fresh and inviting fruity floral impression. The jasmine is prominent and creamy, with a white floral quality that avoids indolic or over-musky notes. The oud plays a supportive role, adding depth and woodiness without dominating or becoming harsh—its presence is subtle, clean, and in tune with the overall balance. The dry-down features a soft powdery musk, slightly sweet but never candy-like, offering gentle warmth. The fragrance is versatile across spring and summer, especially enjoyable day or night, and performs with strong projection and long wear, though it can feel intense in close proximity. It stands out as a feminine, elegant, and youthful take on oud and jasmine, avoiding the common rose-heavy compositions.
