I love Paulina. She gives you the best information and in the best manner. I was so inspired by her mention of the Montale Intense Tiarre, that I ordered it and upon the first spray liked it, but felt it was too floral and a tad bit cloying. Then I went back to her video to find that she already said it is a little cloying and milky but beautiful, however. Upon mixing it with a fresher fragrance, Intense Tiarre becomes a dream that will cut through the hall and make everyone drool. I have ordered Mancera Holidays and can not wait to mix the two and be the most delicious beast out there. I have forever searched for fragrances that are pleasing yet beastly and project. Montale and Mancera are the best bank for your buck and when we have Paulina on our side to test it for us, we have already won half the battle. Loved this recommendation.

[@IdsGnR22]

Im glad to hear that most of your reviews align with my own preferences in perfumes. Totally related on your review about sensual instinct. Looking forward to binge watch all your videos 😄

[@shakirashukor437]

I just want to say that I love you! Your perfume review is soo good. Your taste in scent is quite similar to mine. And that what makes me love you more

[@classycassie1118]

I definitely want something from montale because of you. Every perfume I have bought from your recommendations, I love.

[@nadiaonnen5003]

Because of this video I found my love for montale and mancera. Because of this video I started buying and haven’t looked back (9 bottles later) 💕

[@tammyludwigs6368]

Paulina, thanks for this video, I was just looking into Montale and Mancera a lot lately. It was nice to get you take on these! I absolutely love your reviews because you are not afraid to say you don’t like something. I love your honesty! On top of that, your pronunciation is spot on. I have noticed that our tastes are slightly different but I can see where that is and make allowances. I have bought several perfumes on your recommendations. My nationality is also largely Polish and I love how you represent our nationality!

Awww 😍😍😍❤️

[@brumbarche]

Montale's Aoud Honey is great on its own and for layering in the autumn and winter for people who are on honey -amber vibe and like Kilian's Black to Black (more powdery + tobacco) and Hermes' Ambre Narguile (features a tart note). Aoud Honey is a more casual honey - but very rich, lush, deep and definitely should go easy on the sprayer. It is perfect to cuddle in it too, one spray in the hair after shower at bedtime is amazing. Especially to wake up in it on Saturday morning and start your day with french toast and glass of milk. I could mention few honey scents with different sour vibes, but this one is perfect - so well done.

[@EmysWorldofFragrance]

It was really interesting to hear your thoughts on these two houses 👍For me both are very much hit and miss. I actually have several videos planned for next week about these two houses 😍 My two favorites from Montale are Oudmazing and Sweet Peony.

[@naomiking7518]

Look amazing as always ❤️. I really enjoyed this video ❤️

[@michellesantos1166]

Thank you Paulina! I appreciate this review. I got a bottle of intense cafe and tiare but tiare didn't work for me. Can't figure out why it's giving me plasticky vibe. Montale roses musk and day dreams and mancera lemon line are fab and worthy of full bottle purchase. In my opinion. Looking forward to more niche fragrance review from you 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@meli_sn5907]

Thank you for made this video, I am very happy to listening your opinion about this brand... I was thinking to buy the Intense Tiare, but now I want Holidays and Intense Cafe too... 😅

[@LaFabiolina]

It's Always a pleasure watching your videos, Paulina.. and now, I'm afraid I have to enlarge my Montale family and start the Mancera One! 💸💸💸💸💸💸

[@greeysp4747]

as always your videos are so entertaining and informative thank you 😍

[@Olfactofiles]

Good comparison! If you ever have the chance to try Tiziana Terenzi Delox, you should. It is also very similar to these but smells less synthetic and is a bit deeper and more well rounded (at least that's what my husband and I thought).

[@jj1106]

I adore Mukhallat!!! It’s my favorite from Montale, followed by Intense Cafe. You have to give Mukhallat time to develop. The longer she sits, the better she gets. Srsly, it’s so interesting and bright and almost lactonic. I’m obsessed!!

[@ayshas288]

I can't get over how gorgeous intense cafe is, I can't stop smelling myself.

[@danashackleford5010]

I just got it a week ago. I've been in a cave I guess..but OMG I love it too. My son loves it too. So I'm gona get him a bottle bc it helps him relax. Its intoxicating

[@aicha514]

I love it so much

[@ndoina_]

I have a tester strip of it in my purse and every time I go to get something, I get a whiff and it makes my eyes roll. It smells intoxicating😍

[@norzarinamissman4906]

same with me…😅

[@nadia_hgl3203]

Hi Paulina!! .. finally someone who thinks like me concerning the "vanille absolue" by montale !!! I did not at all adhere to this fragrance which for me smells like "vanilla sugar for cakes" .. honestly it is not a good vanilla, and for the price it is not worth it! there are other fragrances at montale which are good, but "vanille absolue" is a "no no" .. you are really extremely professional and very "precise". I really like and appreciate your work .. thank you very much! 😘😘😘

[@brumbarche]

Last recommendation about roses. Everyone is familiar with Montale's Cafe Intense and Roses Musk - both musky. Starry Nights is a different example of a well done Rose - more unisex and elegant, worth trying - it's one of my favorites. Another less popular release, which is a bit more serious, a bit more introverted, but absolutely gorgeous - it's called Montale Queen Roses. This is a deep dark but beautiful rose in the lines of Rose & Oud by Jo Malone but not as dense , Armani Prive Rose d'Arabie but is not as sweet, Portraint of a Lady F Malle but not as polished and matronly. And mind it - rose is not my favorite flower. Not only that I shy away from this note in perfumes, but I'm very picky when it comes to committing to a full bottle with rose in the notes. Smell is subjective and taste evolves with time. Therefore every recommendation is to be tested before buying.

[@moonperfumes6300]

I LOVE Roses Musk sooo much🥰😍 Great video my beautiful lady👏👏❤❤

[@PaulinaPerfumes]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Toughlove11]

Definitely gonna lay my hands on MANCERA HOLIDAY and MONTALE INTENSE CAFE. I think you should try the MANCERA AOUD VANILLE.....believing you gonna like it if not love it

[@DeviantMotives]

I love Vanille Absolu. It’s the perfect vanilla extract scent

[@RachelSeun]

I bought Chocolate Greedy and I’m getting Roses Vanille tomorrow... I like Chocolate Greedy so I will see if I love Roses Vanille and get back to you.

[@isaberg135]

[@strawberryfields81]

I bought Chocolate Greedy because of you and my Mum wants it now, too! 😃

[@brumbarche]

The Christmas compot you are talking about in my country we call "oshav" lol. Traversee du Bosphore by L'Artisan has this particular dusty+waxy dry fruit note on steroids. And Montale's Mukhalat - I didn't like as perfume, but it is incredible as car spray (if it's not leather salon). About Mancera I want to mention some that go under the radar, as the no-brainers will be mentioned by everyone over and over again. So, I love this very unusual scent Aoud Cafe - it's unisex and for autumn and winter. It's not sweet and layers great with vanila, rose and iris or orris. Pearl is another interesting one - it's fruity woodsy the same way Delina is, but it could pass as more unisex. Aoud Vanille - an eccentric chameleon, worth testing. All these require some time to spend with and a clean nose to tell their notes apart, rather than just enjoy how they are blended. And from montale ... maybe Aoud Shiny - not too bad either - casual and no weird surprises about it. Very likable, but you can smell the quality and may decide to replace some scents in the same vain mainly because of the quality.

[@LauraKing]

YESSS!! Been so obsessed w montale lately😻😻😻

[@PaulinaPerfumes]

I cant wait for your video 😍

[@sr-ji8bw]

You sampled a lot of perfumes back to back without smelling coffee beans. This could do you nose fatigue. BTW I love your chanel and really enjoyed the video. Good idea, do more videos of this type. I would love to hear about serge lutens.

[@Toughlove11]

which of these Montale would you recommend as a perfect summer fragrance.

[@martynaliszcz4280]

Polecam do testów Mancera Instant Crush, ciężko go teraz dostać, ale można powiedzieć że jest w klimatach MFK Baccarat Rouge 540. Slyszalam też, że Amber Fever jest podobny do Instant Crush, ale ponoć słodszy. Testowalam dzis próbkę Mancera Amber Roses i szczerze podoba mi się nawet bardziej niż Montale Intense Cafe 😅 aż sama jestem zaskoczona, zapachy są do siebie bardo podobne. Mancera holidays to zapach wakacji, tych na plaży, z drinkiem i duża ilością słońca 🙈😍❤️ Pozdrawiam ❤️

[@therealdial]

Omg never clicked so fast ❤️❤️❤️

[@crystalquinonez5355]

Love Paulina ♥️👍

[@szilvia266]

Nice video Paulina 🙏 For a summer tropical floral, would you choose Intense Tiare over Tom Ford Orchid Soleil? I'd really like to smell Coco vanille now too 😍 I haven't found Holidays sample/ or in store yet to take a sniff :/

[@beedazzllee]

I got roses musk after sampling intense cafe and not liking cafe so much...roses musk has similar vibes as intense cafe without the coffee..😁 Please try Michael Kors midnight Shimmer, and sexy ruby if you haven't. Two of my favourite designer perfumes

[@Reanmii_the_great]

I was wondering if you can tell me if all of the Mugler fragrances have refillable options? I bought Alien flora & Eau extraordinaire but I didn’t see the option so I want to know if I must return them & get the refillable kind. Thanks.

[@miaomiaou_]

You are so gorgeous omg

[@lellushkaasmr6232]

I just dont understand why those brands often mentioned synthetic. I love them both, also sometimes very strong sillage they have, but that is important to me. How can be a niche synthetic anyway? I love velvet vanilla from Mancera and mango manga from Montale. Nice review!

[@NinaTheLaughocolic]

I bought Holidays because of you and I absolutely adoreeee it! My signature fragrance for this summer for sure! I am also eyeing Coco vanille as I was deciding between the two but now because of this video I probably will get this one too 🙈💸 hugs ❤️

[@MarianaReinders]

Is it similar? Coco Vanille and holidays

[@ft1851]

Thank you ❤️❤️ I smelt rose vanilla and i love it but now i am confused what to buy mancera or the montale one hmm..

[@charleneford]

Hi Paulina, my recommendations for you to try include: Mancera Roses Greedy Mancera Black Vanille--I think you would really love this one❤️ Let me know once you have tried it Mancera Gold Prestigium Montal Pure Love 😉🌸

[@nicoletaalexandrescu2617]

I think you are at least partially right about Vanille Absolu. I put it on my skin twice and I didnt get much from it. What i get is a minty smell plus vanilla, slight minty, not powerful. After that first phase, its a vanilic skin scent and not much more to it.

[@matildaGin777]

Try Montale Oudmazing :) really nice fragrance. Intence cafe for me smells cheap I don't understand the hype of it, tried liking it but just didn't work for me.

[@guadalupemontero83]

I was just looking into all these yesterday ❣️ you video was perfect timing ❤️❤️❤️

[@StyleXHeart]

I was one of the folks who asked you about Intense Tiaré as compared to Holidays. At the time I already had Holidays, which I absolutely love. 🥰 Since then I've had the chance to test Intense Tiaré and I 100% agree with you. They are nothing alike. Holidays is brighter, more playful. While Intense Tiaré is more floral, softer maybe even sultry/seductive. So, of course, I had to get it. 😂 Now I'm going to have to try them together like you suggested. 😘😘

[@PaulinaPerfumes]

😘😘😘

[@amiedora]

And what about coco vanille, I heard its similar to Holidays. I have Holidays will definitely try Intense Tiara.

[@StyleXHeart]

@@amiedora Hi, sorry for the late reply. I've tried Coco Vanille, It's softer and sweeter than Holidays, but more gourmand than Intense Tiaré. Like it's right in between the two of them. Maybe CV is what you get when you mix them together? 🤔 I haven't tried that yet. I didn't think I needed both CV & Holidays because the coconut in Holidays really comes through in the dry down. Now you got me rethinking that thought. 🤔 😂

[@danashackleford5010]

I cant get over how wonderful intense Cafe and Rose's vanille. I'm just afraid of 3 things. 1 they change the formula. 2 everyone starts wearing it and ONCE agian I'll smell like middle america..lol. 3 they increase the price like alot of other brands do once they get popular. I only hope they make flankers or other perfumes that are similar

[@kurdish3567]

I agree with how plain and simple is vanille absolu i have the body cream (which i loveee) but wouldnt like it as a fragrance too plain for me but its a really long lasting body cream 😍👍🏼

[@magdalenam5114]

Hi I'm just after work and let say about hour ago I ordered Intense Cafe fingers crossed but I'm almost sure i will love it thanks Paulina for another lovely video 😉❤

I want Mancera Holidays so badly but always sold out. I might have to get it off season.

[@brendadawson4912]

I have Vanille Absolu from Montale and the perfomance&longevity is amazing, I bought it int he Montale store in Paris and I have never gotten this many compliments about a fragrance and people saying that they smell me from a distance. Its a lovely boozy vanilla (to me it also smells a lot like caramel/vanilla fudge)

[@andysacal139]

you should try Mancera GOLD Intensitive Aoud! I think you would really like it. xx

[@aymira23]

I agree Montale Vanille Absolute is too plain. I will try polish kompot drink one day :) We make kompots literally from every fruit and they all smell different. My eyes are on Mancera - Velvet Vanilla. Most of the people love it. Hope you review it someday:))

[@yemedemure414]

I have Montale Rose Musk… it is amazingly amazing 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@naiixxbby]

Coco vaniel reminds me of hypnotic poison in the dry down so crazy it’s just floral

[@carriechildress5032]

Guys and gals, help me out! I want to try Montale, but I accidentally ordered a sample of Oud Leather Wood instead of Night Oud(?). I almost threw up. I know it’s masculine leaning, but thought it would spray it to get an idea of what Montale is about. I loved the power and longevity, even in the air! I definitely want to get into Montale for that reason, but now I’m scared! I want to blind buy the Intense Cafe based on the reviews. I hate going to the store, so I blind buy everything. 🤣 What do you think? Are the coffee ones safe blind buys? Intense? Ristretto?

[@headless.scents]

Hi! I think Intense Cafe is a safe blind buy as the coffee is ever so slightly present, but not strong. It's essentially a sweet vanilla rose scent. If you enjoy sweet fragrances, this will very likely be the safest bet.

[@AmandaChristine]

I love Mukhallat. However, I think it requires a certain skin chemistry to pull off. At first it smells like strawberry bubblegum but then it dries down (on me) to this rich creamy almond vanilla with the slightest hint of artificial strawberry. I love it. Nothing like it in my fragrance collection. Definitely get a sample first and really try it out. It smells the best on me after one hour.

[@paint.it.6lack]

Yes, I agree! Fragrances like this smell amazing on me. I am a vegetarian, don't eat anything stinky (garlic, onion, etc) and eats tons of fruits, so my natural scent is a very light sweet musk. I always wear scents with musk and vanilla in the base because they smell like me.

[@sophievictoria7337]

Fully agree. Mukhallat starts off weird smelling, but then turns into this beautiful almond vanilla with a hint of strawberry. My wife always tells me she hates that one, then later in the day she will tell me how good I smell and I have to remind her it’s the fragrance she supposedly hates!

[@SciolusEssentia]

OMG. Your comment about mukhallat was exactly the same thing that came through my mind. That 80’s cheap strawberry shaped lipstick my sisters had. Apparently that thing run all over the world, for I live in Brazil. 😂😂

[@kurdish3567]

I love chocolate greedy smells delicious 😍

[@swittykarendi]

Try a sample of Wild Python. It’s one of Mancera vintage and I love it.

[@nonoperfumes]

The two i like best are Oud Purple Rose and Arabian Tonka, from Montale because i'm in love with oud and strong oriental fragrances 😘

[@aymira23]

I also highly recommend Montale- Gold Flowers. Mancera- Choco Violette.

[@maxfransic0878]

Is gold flower can pass as a sensual/sexy perfume?

[@aymira23]

@@maxfransic0878 I think it is sexy but it is very sharp scent. Most of the niche tuberose perfumes are sexy in my opinion :) Gold Flower is oriental, spicy tuberose with ambergris in the background. Hope this helps

[@deiaasd]

Don’t you think Choco Violet leans more masculine than feminine?

[@taniatamaya6116]

Hello Pauline! I like a lot your reviews! And you are just gorgeous! I have Sweet Oriental Dream, it's very unique, for me it reminds of very sweet honey flowers 'The Night scented stock 'I can recommend you to try Rose Elixir by Montale-the smell of fresh juicy strawberries, it's very similar to Miss Dior Cherie sadly discontinued years ago. My best regards! 😉🤍💫

[@PaulinaPerfumes]

Try Montale Intense Tiare

[@mariaschreuder7157]

I just received Montale Intense Tiaré. Oh my god. Amazing even on its own. Please no more recommendations for the rest of this year! I’ve bought more perfume than I’ll ever use! (😂 the new year isn’t too far off!). Thanks again I love this recommendation and it smells like a more potent version of Mancera Holidays so I can see how the two will go well together. This transports me to Bali or Hawaii when you first walk into the hotel you’re hit with the most fragrant exotic flowers just stunning.

[@emmoh2928]

The ristretto intense cafe is more feminine and has more of a rose smell dry down. It’s wears more intimately on the skin

[@giannadannica2133]

Paulina! Personally would you recommend Versace crystal noir, Mancera Holidays or Dolce garden (i'm looking for a perfume with a strong creamy coconut presence)

[@PaulinaPerfumes]

Dear Paulina, thank you for this overview. I have a question - can you please tell me a name of the shop you have all your Montales from? I purchased intense Cafe on Notino websites, but the the perfume which I was given smells a lot as an alcohol and can barely be noticeable after 3 hours. You advised the longevity is about 8 hours, but I can not smell it even if I sniff right the skin after few hours. Is it normal? Or did I receive a bad piece? What do you think? I would also ask you if you have (or had) batch codes on boxes and if you have adhesive labels in the frames at the bottoms of the bottles. Thank you very much for your time in advance and I'm looking forward to your reply. Thanks Jana

[@aleksandrawyszkowska5666]

Call me crazy but I own all 3 of the Intense Cafe ,,family" and as much as you are 100% correct they are super similar I can justify having all of them. I treat it as having backups of the Intense Cafe just slightly different hahahaha. I have Montale Vanille Absolu and it's quite potent and well performing in my perception and does have a prominent woody cinnamon accord (and trust me I don't appreciate weak and shy fragrances and demand a lot from them). I suppose we sometimes have to accept our noses operate differently (that's why with time I've gotten suspicious with reviews when blind buying). Hahahaha kompot z suszu ruined Chocolate Greedy for me too. And and and I was sooo close to buying Sweet Oriental Dream I'm kinda glad I didn't now. Sorry for such a long comment but oh boy do I hate Sweet Oriental Dream! It was the perfume disappointment of the year seriously. Great video Paulina and I love your nails girl. From other perfumes I could say I have Montale Tropical Wood and you may like it. It's a bit strange tho. It was my first blind buy ever and one of my first perfumes and I hated it at first but now I mix it with D&G Light Blue in summer and I love it. It's a rose oud combo with pineapple and leather which sounds a bit repulsive not gonna lie. It's extremely strong and smells a tiny bit like freshly ironed clothes for some reason. Maybe it's that metallic artificial vibe some of their fragrances tend to have. Anyway, it's original and I like it a lot now but don't recommend blind buying. ;)

I have been looking at KZbin for the best of montale and mancera fragrance. We are having Canada sale and I wanted to know which I should add into my collection. The unfortunate thing is, most of the fragrance you mentioned are all out of stock. 😞 But I have been waiting for this video from you because I trust your taste and you don’t disappoint. I was one of the those people who purchased sensual instinct because of the hype and I mentioned it to you before that I had purchased it. I let my husband have it and he likes it. When it was on him I did like it a lot. To me, it’s more masculine, but I feel the dry down is better. I didn’t get the sourness. But we are all different. I will try it again next time when it’s colder maybe I would like it too? All I know is, it is strong so I want to love it. When you are out of intense cafe, you should try tiziana terenzi Delox. I think you would like it. I have been looking at this house more because of how I love Delox. I watched the perfumer paolo being interviewed also and he sold me in his company 😄. I hope to see more of your montale and mancera discoveries. I think they are great value niche house. There are a lot I have been eyeing.
