Spicy citrus. Dries down a bit powdery. Longevity is so so, i get about 5-6 hours.

That's the legend. I wanted to get intense, but seems like they don't have it. Only the bigger one

This smells a lot younger than sartorial. Sartorial smells heavier than this.

Oh. I most likely would like it then. Like heavy stuff. Even for my wines.

Mont Blanc Legend is $55 at Jasina. I saw Intense there too but didn't take note of the price. Jasina is located at High Street Centre ground floor. They're the suppliers.

Tried the legend today. Way too faint for my taste. Possibly good for indoor aircon enviroment, def getting the intense version instead for sure.

Anyone knows how to read the manufacturing date on the box? I was advised not to get any that is more than 2 years past the date.

100ml for $55.

For others reading this, Mont Blanc Legend is a safe option if you're starting out. Mont Blanc is the first level tier of deep bit-fresh-bit menthol-bit woody scents. From there you can progress to Paco Rabonne's One Million (smells like bubblegum to me) and then you could try Dunhill Desire Blue/Red, Hugo Boss, Davidoff, Kenneth Cole Black for men etc.

Different people will enjoy varying longevity and projection. Cos it's down to a variety of variables like skin type, which part of your body you spray the perfume on (for me its always once puff behind each ear and on the sides of the neck). The only way to find out which perfume is for you is to try out till you find 'the one'. There is no right answer and there is absolutely no need to 'go with the flow'. Stick with whatever works for you.

But do bear in mind. Singapore's weather is pathetic so unless its a cold rainy day or if you're in an air-conditioned environment, using perfume is a waste of time and effort. You would be better off using Adidas Sport.

I sold off my 1 Million. Really gives me a headache in our weather. Even though I like strong scents, 1 Million is too much for me. Prefer YSL La Nuit.

Hi all,

Just chiming in and venting because I discovered my bottle of Monocle x CdG Scent Two: Laurel had totally evaporated The bottle was pretty much empty and plastic film had turned yellow from the essential oils.

This is the first (& only) time it's happened to me btw. I've read some reviews that the packaging standard for this range was kinda basic.

Any input on how this can be prevented in the future?

Oh, I love the ysl too. Was thinking of trying the one million, but maybe not now.

Teflon tape (or any other tape) the openings for perfumes that you aren't going to touch for a long time.... for essential oils separating i am not too sure personally.... maybe an occasion shake and swirl can prevent it?
