Smells like Christmas. I could use a full bottle of this easily but I already have two Christmas cinnamon and spice amber honeyed scents. Great value, nice strong scent, not too medicinal oud, not too hard leather. Big love.

 I'm still new to the world of Aouds but this one smells amazing. It's sweet, rich and oriental in all the right ways. The projection is amazing and it lasts for a long time, as other reviewers have pointed out. This one is a gem.

Perfection inside the bottle. Beautiful mix of honey with cinnamon, this is so delicious here that I can not go without smelling my wrist, I really love it, instant passion. Pump like the vast majority of Montale perfumes.

I'm surprised how spicy this jewel is. I'd expected a more simple, honey sweet vanilla milkshake but it is certainly nothing of the kind. What I do get is a certain Ambre Narguile meets L Lolita Lempicka vibe mainly due to the cinnamon and vanilla. The main difference is the fabulous longevity of Honey Aoud. This sweetie is humming along from morning to night. From spice heaven to the soft vanilla in the late drydown. The only problem I have with Montale is that this house make every other perfume weak och short-lived.

This fragrance is very powerful and sweet! I like the cinnamon here,it brings me back in the cold days of winter. It expresses warmth and even tenderness... how to be wrapped in a warm and soft blanket near the fireplace. It is very dense and the sillage is enormous (typical of Montale perfumes) longevity lasts for a long time. I like very much!!

I wasn't expecting that, but I have drunk some a couple days ago and the familiarity is clear. I'm surprised to see cinnamon and not anise listed in the notes.



The honey is lovely and sweet but isn't very literal. My partner thought the oud smelled like camphor, but I understand that's normal.



After about 20 minutes it's a lovely warm woody sweet scent with some floral notes. The absinthe is still in the background. I do get some cinnamon in the drydown but it's a sweet cinnamon and not a hot cinnamon so it's easy to miss.



This has become my spring signature scent and I figured I should say a bit more about why I love it so much. This spring I wanted something quirky and confident and anything but boring. This is a sillage monster and it's a scent that I just couldn't stop thinking about. It's delicious without channeling any one identifiable food item. It's complex but never feels muddy.

good staying power but just slightly lacks projection at least by my standards but certainly competes with if not tops 18.21 man made and pure havane in my opinion.



Nice sweat honey note layered well into a masculine signature montale aoud/tobacco note.



Certainly one of the better fragrances from the house.

First spray give me a blast of honey with aoud. I usually got scared when it comes to aoud because its very strong notes. but this one balanced with honey and touch of cinnamon. its not very loud and cloying. As it dries down it becomes more tone more appealing to the nose. It hangs there well balanced. I could easily sprayed this 3 times without offending anyone. And its a crowd pleaser. But it project strong one spray could cover the entire room and last for hours. So far the best one ive tried by montale. what a lovely juice. 10 for me.

This juice is a dream... that lasts and lasts and lasts!

Unexpected frankly, but I believe it to be my favourite Montale at present.

Very balanced composition to my nose, and easy to please.

Bang for your buck guaranteed!
