Herbal Aquatica
Herbal Aquatica by Montale is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, sage and mint, moves into green tea, papyrus and caramel and dries down to amber, sandalwood and vanilla. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects very strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
- Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
Heart
- Green Tea Dry, slightly bitter, calm. Quiet and very easy to wear.
- Papyrus Dry, smoky, papery wood. Vetiver's quieter cousin.
- Caramel Burnt sugar. Rich, sticky and unapologetically sweet.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
