The Montblanc Legend perfume Montblanc was originally a family business more specialized in the design of writing instruments than in perfume. Nevertheless, its excellence, the quality of its materials and its craftsmanship were enough to quickly establish its reputation.
Legend by Montblanc is a fragrance that appeared in 2011 but pays tribute to the entire history of the house. This fresh, floral and gourmand fougère wonderfully combines classicism and modernity. By turns lively and fresh, before becoming woodier and more intense, Legend by Montblanc is intended for all ambitious and charismatic men of our time. Its sillage is signed by the talented perfumer Olivier Péscheux. Its bottle, meanwhile, takes up all the emblematic codes of the brand. So, how about examining its bottle in more detail?
Legend by Montblanc, a virile and refined bottle
Before going into detail, let us begin by looking at this bottle as a whole. Undeniably, this is a very masculine perfume, and this is obvious from the very sight of its bottle. First of all, black dominates. Sober and elegant, it seems to dress the Legend by Montblanc bottle in a tuxedo. Like a legend of perfumery, this perfume presents itself to us dressed to the nines! Its glass, meanwhile, is heavy and thick. It thus rests on a solid base, while having broad shoulders. The man who wears this perfume is a proud, robust being one can rely on. In the image of the man it is intended for, Legend by Montblanc does not conceal its ambitions or its strength. This perfume is designed from the outset to rise to the highest peaks!
A tribute to the Montblanc Meisterstück
It should be noted, however, that the black color was not chosen solely to evoke a suit jacket. Indeed, it has always been widely used by the house of Montblanc, particularly in its writing instruments. Here, the visual of the Legend by Montblanc perfume refers to one of the brand's greatest pieces: the Meisterstück, the house's undisputed bestseller. As a reminder, this is Montblanc's emblematic pen, and by far the best-selling in the world. Here, this bottle carries the same identity. This black and steel flacon takes up the fluid, elegant lines of this refined fountain pen. Likewise, its heavy glass recalls the sensation of this pen when held in hand.
The star and the guilloché, two emblematic Montblanc codes
Finally, to complete the whole, Montblanc has slipped in two emblematic attributes, true signatures of the brand. First of all, on its steel band, at the top of its front face, proudly sits the six-pointed star of Montblanc. It came into being in reference to the six glaciers rising in the Mont Blanc massif. The brand's name, meanwhile, is engraved in relief on its cap. Finally, three rings dress its cabochon. Here again, this is a Montblanc signature, always present on its pens. The bottle of Legend thus carries within it a reference to all of Montblanc's finest achievements. It is a symbol of perfection.
