Oh! Montale have that many aouds, do they? So I researched them and chose six, of which I obtained samples - the theory being I could than select my favourite and buy some. So much for theories!
I have Black, Dark, Wild, Wood and Spices, Moon and Velvet. My home and I smell of aoud - heady aroma - and I can't tell the difference between the six Montale fragrances - they are all powerful and have intermingled and filled every nook and cranny of my house. I would ventilate but it's too cold outside. Should have cleared by the morning?
Meantime, how to choose between these powerfully aoudy aouds? Anybody have a favourite? I've listed them above in my current order of preference, though 'Wild' could very easily jump to the top in an instant!
