Roses Musk

Roses Musk belongs to the Montale catalog and comes as an Eau de Parfum. Its name combines two raw materials, rose and musk, which are found in the composition: rose in the top and heart tiers, musk in the base.

A flanker is named Montale Intense Roses Musk and is linked to the year 2015. Roses Musk is offered in sizes of 2, 5, 8, 15, 50 and 100 ml.

Top

At the opening, lemon brings freshness and tang, a sharp brightness typical of citrus zest. Rose appears from this first tier, with a warm profile evoking honey and wax, far removed from the image of a simply bright flower.

Heart

Rose occupies the heart tier. Its warm, honeyed and waxy facets recall the dense texture of a rose absolute or concrete, where the flower takes on an almost creamy character, close to a honeycomb.

Base

Musk holds the base of the accord. It is described through woody touches, an animalic dimension and an impression of warmth. Once derived from the musk deer and now obtained through synthesis, musk readily extends the flowers with a muted warmth.

Floral family

Classified in the floral family, Roses Musk owes this classification to rose, present across two tiers. The floral family brings together compositions centered on one or several flowers; here the flower is tinged with honey and wax, framed by lemon and musk.

Rose and lemon on the label

The INCI list declares citronellol, geraniol and geranyl acetate, classic constituents of rose essence, as well as rose ketones, molecules with fruity and honeyed accents. Limonene, citral and pinene, common in lemon zest oil, also declared, sit alongside linalool, present in many flowers.
