This is a ‘traditional’ Montale, in the sense that it smells like everything at once and nothing like the notes.

Mostly this is very sweet, quite acidic with a lot of citrus and fruitiness. Some rose, but in a very nondescript designer style.

In general, this smells like a watery, sweet, fruity designer. It has some harshness underneath, but nothing resembling leather or wood to my nose.

Smells like a Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Middle Eastern style flanker… not a fan at all.
