Beast Love

Beast Love by Montale is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with pear, plum and bergamot, moves into leather, cedarwood, rose and vetiver and dries down to vanilla, tonka bean, musk and amber. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects very strongly.

Notes, explained

Opening

Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.

Heart

Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.

Dry-down

Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
