Fresh, green, and playfully spicy—there's nothing quite like it among everyday fragrances. This is the essence of Fantastic Basilic by Montale, centered around the sweetly spicy, herbaceous basil. Its aroma conjures up images of a sunny weekend day. Picture yourself leisurely strolling to a cozy corner of your garden to gather herbs for a salad. The air is filled with the scent of freshly cut basil, rosemary, thyme, and a hint of mint. Ripe pears rest on the table, exuding a sweet and juicy aroma. This fragrance is perfect for a relaxed look when you want to enjoy life's simple pleasures and keep your mind free of extra thoughts.
The fragrance opens with fresh and vibrant notes of basil. These present a beautiful blend of green, slightly spicy tones with the sweetness of ripe pear and the exotic, citrus sparkle of kumquat.
The heart note blossoms with floral overtones of tuberose and frangipani, enhanced by soft, creamy nuances.
The composition concludes with a warm and captivating accord of benzoin and tonka beans, leaving a deep, resinous sweetness in its wake.
The best masterpiece by Montale.
The scent reminds me of a weed from the city, musty soil, and cheap spices for meat. I would even throw away the sample, as I cannot imagine anyone willingly wearing this.
