Ormonde Jayne Montabaco Intensivo, Sample
Montabaco Intensivo by Ormonde Jayne, crafted by perfumer Geza Schoen, is a Woody Spicy fragrance that appeals to both women and men. Launched in 2013, this exquisite scent paints a vivid picture of fresh mountain breezes enveloping you in an invigorating embrace. The top notes are a lively concoction of mountain air, cardamom, and bergamot, mingling with the bright zest of orange oil and the crisp green of juniper and clary sage. This opening is both fresh and spicy, setting the stage for a fragrance that evolves beautifully on the skin.
As the fragrance transitions to its heart, delicate notes of tea and hedione intertwine with the soft elegance of violet, rose, and magnolia. This middle phase is a gentle floral bouquet, offering a serene contrast to the vibrant opening. The florals are airy and nuanced, lending a sophisticated softness that tempers the initial spice.
In the dry-down, Montabaco Intensivo reveals a rich tapestry of base notes, where the creamy warmth of sandalwood and suede meets the dark allure of tobacco. Iso E Super adds a distinctive, velvety touch, while ambergris, moss, and tonka bean provide depth and a subtle sweetness. This final phase is comforting and enduring, leaving a lingering impression of refined warmth and complexity. The composition is a testament to Ormonde Jayne's ability to create fragrances that are both opulent and timeless.
