About the manufacturer
Before we explore the magical fragrance of Montale Crystal Flowers Unisex, it is worth recalling its creator. Pierre Montal - a person about whom almost nothing is still known. Of course, many journalists are personally acquainted with him, his interviews come up every now and then in magazines, but his sources of inspiration and his life are kept in the strictest confidence. According to Pierre himself, it is important for him that the world love his creations - aromas, and not a fanatic of his personality. And in order to create perfumes that really would become something new in the perfume industry, he studied the tastes and preferences of users for a long time, experimented. And so began to come into the world the treasured metal bottles, the contents of which become the object of desire of millions. One of the most popular perfumes was Montale Crystal Flowers. Reviews of the fragrance prove that it is really as beautiful as the manufacturer describes it.
What is this perfume?
Montal is a brand that produces not just high-quality perfumes, but niche or, if you like, selective. This means that the fragrance is based on simple ingredients, and there are very few of them, but they are beaten in such a way that each person opens in his own way. What is remarkable about the French perfume Montale Crystal Flowers? The composition of the fragrance belongs to the group of oriental floral, but it is not a languid gourmet elixir, full of oriental incense. This creation of Pierre can be described as a flower boom or a spring explosion. Perfumes literally illuminate with freshness, sweetness, richness of floral notes. All this splendor is supported by notes of ambergris and musk - thanks to them, the aroma becomes more tenacious and multifaceted.
Main components
It's time to get acquainted with the olfactory pyramid of perfumes Montale Crystal Flowers. Despite the fact that it contains a very small number of notes, the aroma is very versatile and deep. It is light and at the same time tenacious, fresh, even a little watery, but at the same time sweet and slightly languid. So, in 2007, Pierre Montal, creating Montale Crystal Flowers, used the following ingredients:
- initial notes: lily of the valley and ambergris;
- middle notes are mandarin orange;
- base notes are rose and musk.
Interestingly, the sequence of disclosure of these extracts for each person is individual. Someone hears a rose in the first zilch, and then plunges into a haze of lily of the valley and mandarin. Others, first of all, note fresh and juicy notes, and only then they discover that the perfume begins to fragrance with a real red rose.
Fresh notes
Many girls begin the description of the Montale Crystal Flowers fragrance with the fact that its first audible notes are citrus. After spraying the perfume a sweet haze rises into the air, in which the aroma of mandarin is clothed. Its sweetness is emphasized by the smell of lily of the valley or lily - a very subtle, barely perceptible, but defining character of the whole composition. These aromatic chords would have disappeared after half an hour, if not for ambergris. This is the whole focus of Montal - the element that many perfumers use in the database, he transferred to the initial note. Therefore, the fruit-white-flowery mixture is as if seasoned with notes of the east. It creates a feeling of warmth, coziness and relaxation.
Her majesty the rose
A perfume called "Montal Crystal Flowers" would remain an unremarkable toilet water if a rose were not based on its composition. It is immediately worth noting that this ingredient is more than capricious, and only experienced and very talented perfumers can curb it. After all, perfumes are often found, frankly smelling of air freshener, and all because a rose was incorrectly added to them. In the case of Montale Crystal Flowers, everything is exactly the opposite. These perfumes most faithfully and incredibly beautifully convey the sound of this beautiful female flower. After you have tasted the sweet fruity notes, you can enjoy the pink aroma, incredibly fresh and rich for a long time.
Musk is the foundation on which everything rests.
Based on the fact that Crystal Flowers are based on floral and fruity notes, it becomes clear to everyone that we are dealing with a feminine aroma, delicate, sweet and majestic. Why then does he belong to the “unisex” category and some men, including Pierre Montal himself, are happy to wear it on themselves? It's all about musk and the light echoes of red pepper. These notes make the perfume more sharp, give it a rough, solid shade. Musk enhances the aroma of flowers and fruits, makes the composition richer and brighter. If a woman, applying "Crystal Flowers" on her body, first feels a lily of the valley and a rose, then on a man these perfumes will be revealed primarily by peppery, bitter notes, and only from afar will a floral mood be felt. Here you have the secrets of selective perfumes. One can only guess how spirits recognize a person?
What is resistance?
For any perfume, durability is extremely important - without it, it is nothing more than an incense stick. What about Montale Crystal Flowers? Reviews of these spirits indicate that they are simply incredibly persistent. They stay on the body for up to 15 hours. Moreover, for the indicated period of time, they literally change the melody every hour. They may begin to sound like citrus, and then become invisible - turn into a water lily. It seems that the aroma is dying away, but then a sudden flash - and you are enveloped in the aroma of a rose with dew drops, delicate, refined and very fresh. On clothes, “Crystal Flowers” is most often printed with oriental notes - musk and ambergris - and they sound until the next wash. Such a kaleidoscope is not only interesting, but also does not let you get tired of the smell. Montale Crystal Flowers - a perfume that is unlikely to ever bother you.
A few words about the divine train
The aftertaste left by perfume is no less important factor by which it is evaluated.

There are very strong aromas on sale, the train of which is long and long, there are subtle ones that disappear after a couple of minutes.

But after you leave the room, there will be a light and almost elusive haze. She will be tasted and wondered - what does it smell so wonderful?

Perfumes, like clothes, are selected depending on the time of year. Fragrances that are equally good in both winter and summer can be counted on the fingers and, as a rule, they are monotonous and unoriginal. But Montale Crystal Flowers is a fresh floral bouquet with spicy and sweet fruity notes that best complements, of course, spring looks! A thin lily of the valley with a watery tint, mandarin, but not the peel, but the smell of the fruit itself, the lobule itself, a rose framed by notes of dew and seasoned with allspice. Such chords are most fully perceived only in the spring - at a time when everything around is the same flowering, smelling and magical.

Sometimes they go well with winter looks, but it’s worth, as they say, orienting oneself on occasion.
