By the editors · 2 min readPure Love opens with a single rose — Montale's house rose, which reads as both fresh and slightly synthetic, a digital rose rather than a garden one. It's a clear, undistracted opening that doesn't try to add complexity before the base takes over.
Sandalwood and vetiver in the heart shift the register immediately: the florals give way to wood and earth. The sandalwood here is warm and creamy, the vetiver drier and slightly smoked. Together they form a transitional phase that prepares for the base rather than standing on its own.
Leather, ambergris, and vanilla form the dry-down — warm, smooth, and slightly animalic, with the ambergris providing a clean, skin-like diffusion and the vanilla preventing the leather from hardening. A simple, linear rose-leather composition that doesn't overclaim.
