Day Dreams

Day Dreams by Montale is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with mandarin, neroli and tiare, moves into orange blossom, jasmine, coconut, cashmere wood and sandalwood and dries down to vanilla, amber and musk. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects very strongly.

Notes, explained

Opening

Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
Tiare Creamy tropical white flower. Suntan lotion, in the best way.

Heart

Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Coconut Creamy and tropical. Suncream in the best possible way.
Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.

Dry-down

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