Montale Aoud Vanille dupe, inspired by the original
Montale Aoud Vanille pairs the house’s rich oud with a warm, sweet vanilla, a cosy, dessert like take on a smoky Middle Eastern wood. Our interpretation carries that character in a long lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU.
The Story Behind the Scent
Pierre Montale’s ouds range from bright and fresh to deep and gourmand, and Aoud Vanille sits firmly at the warm, sweet end. It takes the smoky agarwood he is known for and softens it with vanilla, saffron and rose for something plush and comforting.
Black pepper and saffron open it warm and slightly spicy, a rich oud, rose and jasmine give an opulent floral woody heart, and a base of vanilla, guaiac wood and sandalwood keeps it sweet, smooth and long lasting. It smells like warm wood and vanilla together, indulgent without losing the oud’s depth.
How Our Version Compares to the Original
We do not claim this is identical, because no interpretation is. What we have built follows the same woody oriental signature of the original, rebuilt at up to 40% perfume oil so it projects clearly early on and lingers longer than a typical spray. A little goes a long way.
