Montale is a French niche perfume house founded in Paris in 2003 by Pierre Montale. Before creating the brand, he worked for years in the Middle East, where he became closely acquainted with the traditions of Arabian perfumery and with the noble agarwood (oud). Oud, rose, amber, musk and spices became the signature of the brand.

Montale perfumes are recognized by their dense, rich and long-lasting compositions and their distinctive aluminum bottles. The brand offers a huge collection of unisex fragrances, including classics such as Red Aoud, Amber Musk, Arabians and Starry Nights, gourmand temptations such as Chocolate Greedy, Vanilla Cake and Intense Cherry, as well as fresh scents such as Aqua Palma and Holy Neroli.

Pierre Montale also founded the sister brand Mancera. You can read more about the history of Montale in our article The History of Montale: From Its Beginnings to the Top, and about niche perfumery in general in the article What Is Niche Perfume and Why Is It So Special?.
