Inspiration and Craftsmanship
MONTECRISTO draws inspiration from the weathered elegance of a Tuscan hunter's lodge, where worn leather, aged wood, and the lingering aroma of fine tobacco mingle in the air. The fragrance is a masterful blend of hand-selected raw materials, including the bright, lemony-green cabreuva wood, earthy celery seeds, and the animalic warmth of ambrette and hyrax.
Perfumer Delphine Thierry's expert touch balances these elements, creating a scent that is both primal and refined, evoking the timeless craftsmanship and rugged beauty of the Italian countryside. Each bottle of MONTECRISTO is a work of art, a testament to MASQUE Milano's commitment to pushing the boundaries of modern perfumery.

Fragrance Profile
Top Notes: The fragrance opens with a bright, zesty burst of cabreuva wood, its lemony-green aroma intertwined with the clean, vegetal musk of ambrette seeds. A hint of boozy, sweet rum adds warmth and depth, hinting at the complexity to come.
Heart Notes: As MONTECRISTO evolves, the heart reveals a rich, honeyed tobacco accord, evoking the aroma of a hand-rolled cigar. Celery seeds bring an earthy, peppery nuance, while labdanum and benzoin provide a resinous, leathery backbone that is both animalic and comforting.
Base Notes: In the dry down, smoky guaiac wood and cedar emerge, their dry, woody character reminiscent of aged floorboards and weathered furniture. Patchouli adds an earthy, grounding quality, while the animalic hyrax lends a feral, musky edge that is both provocative and alluring.
