A new Legend appears at Montblanc. Always in step with its time, the house of Montblanc has managed to evolve with the decades, venturing into new creative territories while preserving its unmatched taste for luxury and elegance. Thus, from writing instruments, it eventually made its way into the world of perfumery.
How are legends made? Probably from inspiration, determination and limitless inventiveness. This is precisely how the house of Montblanc was conceived. Initially specializing in writing instruments, it gradually diversified its activity until becoming an outstanding perfumer. Thus, in 2011, Montblanc presented its masculine Eau de Toilette Legend. In 2020, this men's fragrance reinvents itself and becomes Legend Eau de Parfum. Revealed in a completely black bottle, this juice aims to be more powerful and daring, while retaining certain key elements of its predecessor. So, how about learning more about its composition? Here are the key raw materials of its formula.
Fresh and aromatic top notes
The first version of Legend was characterized by a highly aromatic lightness that immediately burst forth on contact with bergamot, lavender and verbena. Today, bergamot is still present. It is what gives Legend Eau de Parfum its fresh, citrus scent. As a reminder, bergamot is a fruit resulting from the cross between the lemon tree and the bitter orange tree. However, lavender has now disappeared in favor of a fresher, powdery violet. It is from this flower that the fragrance's Mediterranean and aromatic temperament comes. This tart yet discreet duo immediately sparks curiosity. It invites one to discover more about the man who wears it, while providing him with a certain energy in daily life.
Legend Eau de Parfum, a very woody composition
Then, the virility and elegance of Legend Eau de Parfum surge forth once again in the heart of this perfume. Indeed, it rests on a woody accord. While delicate, it is nevertheless counterbalanced by a more floral lightness. Jasmine and geranium are still present. They were already there in the collection's first Eau de Toilette. However, they are now paired with a more magnetic and captivating magnolia. Here, Montblanc manages to find the right balance between charisma and refinement. As always, Montblanc achieves a perfect harmony between power and elegance.
The sensual sillage of Legend Eau de Parfum
Finally, behind it, Legend Eau de Parfum leaves an unforgettable scent, at once persistent and captivating. Here, it is a matter of vibrant wood and more animalic leather. The whole is also enriched with an enveloping moss. From then on, Legend Eau de Parfum by Montblanc leaves an indelible imprint in memory. This version is undeniably more concentrated and more assertive than the previous ones. All this intensity is the work of perfumer Olivier Pescheux, who has worked for several years in collaboration with Montblanc to continuously enrich this olfactory collection. Renowned worldwide for his acknowledged expertise, he continues to rack up successes in modern perfumery. Legend Eau de Parfum is therefore yet another demonstration of his boundless talent.
