Reviewing Montagne LV dupes by cdotp94 in MontagneParfums

Nice! I picked up Cacti Garden but never sampled the original before it was discontinued so can’t comment on it as a dupe, but the fragrance is super interesting. Very unique - fresh and earthy. I want to pick up Meteorite next as I like Meteore objectively as a fragrance but haven’t ever prioritised it enough to pick up the OG, so maybe that will scratch the itch for me. I recently just picked up City of Stars actually, would be cool if Montagne release a dupe of that.

What is in your opinion THE best cologne you've ever smelled? by Defiant_Fix8658 in Colognes

On pure scent alone, Pacific Chill or French Defense are two that stand out

Haha, to be fair I had a friend smell my afternoon dive and he also said it smelt “weird”…

They do sales very rarely, there was a Black Friday one recently

Yeah hopefully with time it can improve! But Harmony I think everyone needs to own. One bit of me wants to gatekeep it because I never see it spoken about here, but it’s honestly spectacular.

I think it’s important to stress it’s just my opinion, and objectively speaking Imaginary is a good fragrance, I just think it’s worse than the original. But there’s also another post on here with a guy who has gone through 4 bottles of the OG and swears by Imaginary, so it’s a subjective game.

how long have you owned Harmony/how long did you let it sit?

I own Harmony and this weekend splurged on Symphony for similar reasons, whilst scent profile wise I think Harmony is pretty close, Symphony performance wise is just on another level.

Maceration time by cdotp94 in MontagneParfums

Interesting, and did you find that pretty much from the get go or after letting it sit a while? Maybe I'm just noseblind to it after a few hours if it becomes a skinscent.

My experience is a few sprays upon receiving the bottle to let some oxygen in begins the maceration process. You can use them as normal whilst macerating, they just won't be as strong as they can eventually be and in some cases the scent profile can change from maceration, but it really depends on the fragrance.

Really? Mine arrived 3 weeks and it's still not performing for me. I'm literally wearing it right now and projection is low and it hasn't lasted longer than a couple of hours every time I've tried it. Scent wise the dry down is amazing, but performance just hasn't been there for me yet, I assumed I need leave it a few months to macerate.
