Arabians Tonka by Montale is dense and sweet, a rose-and-oud scent rounded off with sugar and tonka. Saffron opens it with a warm, slightly metallic spice, and bergamot adds a brief flash of light. Oud and Bulgarian rose form the heart, dark and deep. The base is where it lives: amber, tonka bean and sugar cane, softened by white musk and a touch of oakmoss, drying down powdery and warm. Released in 2019, it is unisex, and it suits anyone who likes a scent with real volume. Voters keep it for winter, for evenings and nights, and for going out. Most wearers vote its longevity eternal and its sillage enormous, so go easy on the trigger. A 3ml decant tells you quickly whether you want that much presence.

The community verdict
Saffron and bergamot start Arabians Tonka before rose and agarwood settle into amber, tonka bean and sugar cane. Most find it exceptionally long-lasting and room-filling. It suits winter nights, works in autumn and the evening too, and draws compliments; a light hand makes sense.

The house
More from Montale
Montale was founded in France in 2003 by Pierre Montale, who built the house around oud paired with rose and bottled it in his trademark aluminium flacons. Oud is still part of the story, but the range here runs mostly sweet and warm: amber, vanilla and musk, with coffee, caramel and tonka bean for richness and saffron for heat. Intense Cafe is the first one to know, rose and coffee over vanilla. Chocolate Greedy is a spiced cacao treat, and Arabians Tonka is a dense, sugary amber. Black Aoud goes back to the roots with rose, oud and patchouli.
