Description

Legend eau de parfum starts off with a pretty strong violet leaf note, some bergamot, and leather. It’s fresh and somewhat green, with what I’m guessing is their synthetic oakmoss substitute. There’s really not much going on here, it feels pretty flat. Legend opens with a blend of pineapple, bergamot, and apple. It is clean, but doesn’t have the same type of sharpness, as it is calmed by lavender and tonka bean. It also has a dry underlying aroma from the base, that will become more prominent later on. Mont Blanc Legend is a very versatile scent and that’s definitely one of its strengths. It can be worn year round and fits in, within all environments. It is attractive enough for dates, can go out for an evening, but doesn’t have that massive club beast persona.

I’d say that both of these are moderate. I know EDP has the higher concentration, but it doesn’t feel any stronger when I compare it to the original. The sillage is about the same at its peak. Maybe EDP goes a little longer with its strength, but that’s about it. This essence was created in 2020 by the same perfumer as its predecessor: Olivier Pescheux, in it, its creator wants to convey to us the contrasts that make it a unique work, such as softness and strength, tenderness and seduction, or simply, warmth and cold. All these sensations magnified and enhanced with a new concentration.

Will you be claiming the VAT back?

LEGEND EAU DE PARFUM by Montblanc is a fragrance for men that is included in the Oriental Woody family. The reinterpretation of the LEGEND Eau de Toilette fragrance, which reveals the elegance and sophistication of the active man. There’s nothing all that new with the eau de parfum, to make it a must have versus the original. I don’t think it smells any better and the performance, isn’t that much better. Pleasant and fresh smell, right on top. The bergamot stands out in an initial phase, but minutes later comes the scent of very smooth leather, with a light but elegant touch of cedar. It doesn't smell like animal leather, far from it, it's almost aromatic. Even the notes of wood are very delicate. I wish the leather was given more of a role versus the violet leaf. That would have given it more distinction and a bit more personality than it has. The performance is solid, just not incredible.

During one day (around 12:00, assuming I applied it the first time before leaving for work at 8:00 am), I had to reapply once more during the afternoon (around 3:00 pm) because at lunch time neither I nor anyone else felt the fragrance (it was close to the skin). But that doesn't surprise me, even though it's an EDP (still way better than EDT).Legend EDT gives me 5-6 hours of solid wear. During testing, I’ve gotten between 6.5-8 hours of wear from the EDP version. Neither one is going to give a marathon type of wear, but the EDP has the clear edge here. Inspired by the ‘Legend man’ who is confident, authentic and courageous, the 2020 Montblanc fragrance blends traditional fan-favourite facets with contemporary notes inspired by the outdoors. Honestly, the fragrance strikes me as just fine. If you liked the original, you’ll probably like the eau de parfum, even if you don’t necessarily need a bottle for yourself.

Montblanc Legend EDP plays with three addictive fragrance families: woody, aromatic and fougere. From the very first spritz, the Eau de Parfum awakens the senses with an energising bergamot note and fresh violet leaves. The heart contains a bouquet of florals, including magnolia, geranium and heady jasmine for a touch of elegance as the scent warms into a new vibrant woody core. The Eau de Parfum finishes with a captivating trail of sensual leather and oak moss that’s reminiscent of the forest floor. Legend EDP is a similar take on the original, but with some slight differences. Less of the top fruity notes, upping the violet leaf, and a leather/woody base coming through. The opening act isn’t all that great, but the dry down gets better for me. As a connoisseur of this line, I can start by saying that between the EDT and the EDP, the latter is clearly ahead. Even compared to the Emblem, another one I've had, the Legend EDP turns out to stand out.Exceptional! Montblanc Legend EDP still lingered on my skin after nine to ten hours. What’s Special About The Bottle? Notes include: Bergamot, Pineapple Leaf, Sandalwood, Apple, rose, oak moss, lemon verbena, geranium, lavender, And Tonka Bean Master perfumer Oliver Pescheux was inspired by how the Montblanc ‘Legend’ lives his life with courage, feelings and conviction. The scent makes its mark upon Montblanc’s hundred-year history, asserting a new kind of masculinity. Legend Eau de Parfum invites all men to challenge themselves and discover what kind of legend they are, projecting a sense of purpose, charisma and authenticity through the fragrance. If you’re a fan of Legend Eau de Toilette and you’re looking for an intense, bold and mysterious fragrance, you’ll love the enhanced and concentrated aroma of Montblanc Legend Eau de Parfum. Legend EDP is about the same. The violet leaf and leather doesn’t really change when it can be worn compared to the EDT version. The leather isn’t that intense and the violet leaf works pretty much year round.
