Montale Aoud Lime opens sharp and vivid, with the dry impact typical of the first moments in the Aoud line. The opening highlights Indian rose and Italian iris: a floral accord that feels cool, slightly powdery, and not sugary. Then the scent moves into a woody heart centered on oud, darker and denser than the start. As it develops, patchouli and sandalwood come forward, then soften in a base of amber with a touch of saffron. Projection is noticeable in the first hours, then it sits closer to the skin while keeping its woody-spicy profile. This is a unisex fragrance for those who enjoy dry oud structures lit by a floral facet and grounded by a warm base. It performs best in cooler weather and evening settings, when you want something distinctive but controlled.
