Montale Aoud Forest Eau de Parfum

Montale Aoud Forest Eau de Parfum : A Wilderness-Inspired Oud with a Refreshing Twist

Transport yourself into the heart of untamed nature with Montale Aoud Forest Eau de Parfum —a captivating unisex fragrance that masterfully blends the mystique of oud with vibrant marine and green accords. From the niche house of Montale, known for its powerful and exotic compositions, Aoud Forest stands out as an invigorating take on traditional oud perfumes. It’s earthy, aquatic, herbal, and unexpectedly fresh.

At Scents Angel, we’re proud to offer Montale Aoud Forest, a fragrance that speaks to the bold spirit of those who love the wild—where the sea meets the trees, and adventure lives in every breath.

An Opening That Bursts with Freshness

Right from the first spritz, Montale Aoud Forest makes its presence known. The top notes explode with marine accords, lemon, grapefruit, and a green herbaceous blend that evokes dew-soaked foliage and ocean spray.

The citrus notes are crisp and tangy, giving the opening a bright, energetic tone. But it’s the marine notes—salty, ozonic, and clean—that instantly create a vivid image of crashing waves against rocky coasts. It's not your typical aquatic scent; instead, it feels like a breath of brisk sea air filtered through dense greenery.

There’s a briskness and vitality here that’s rarely found in oud-based perfumes, making Aoud Forest refreshingly modern and approachable even for those new to oud.

A Complex and Wildly Natural Heart

As the initial citrusy-marine brightness fades, the fragrance opens up into its heart—an intriguing blend of ginger, rosemary, agarwood (oud), and floral nuances. This is where the complexity of Aoud Forest truly begins to unfold.

• Ginger adds a spicy warmth and slight sweetness that balances out the coolness of the top notes.

• Rosemary and forest herbs bring an earthy, green sharpness that gives the scent a naturalistic, “outdoorsy” feel.

• And then comes the oud—smooth, woody, and slightly smoky, yet not overpowering. Unlike other Montale oud-heavy creations, Aoud Forest uses it more as a subtle anchor rather than a headline act.

The interplay between freshness and depth, herbal sharpness and woody warmth, creates a beautiful contradiction. It’s sophisticated without being formal, wild without being chaotic.

A Soft, Woodsy, Long-Lasting Finish

As the fragrance dries down, the base becomes smoother and more grounded. Notes of cedarwood, ambergris, and white musk emerge to round out the composition. This phase of Aoud Forest is calm and introspective—a grounding experience after the vibrant top and middle notes.

• Cedarwood adds a dry, resinous touch.

• Ambergris gives the base a salty-skin warmth with just a whisper of sweetness.

• White musk provides a clean, soft trail that lingers beautifully on the skin.

The result is a long-lasting fragrance that evolves over hours, never becoming flat or overly intense. It projects well without being aggressive and has a moderate to strong sillage that earns compliments in both casual and dressed-up settings.

When to Wear It

Montale Aoud Forest is one of the most versatile oud fragrances you can own. Unlike many traditional oud scents that lean heavily toward cold weather, Aoud Forest wears exceptionally well in spring and summer thanks to its marine and citrus elements. It’s perfect for outdoor adventures, daytime exploration, or even elegant evening occasions.

Whether you're hiking coastal trails, strolling through a botanical garden, or stepping into a summer evening event, this fragrance matches the vibe with rugged elegance.

Its unisex profile also makes it a great choice for fragrance lovers who appreciate complex compositions that defy gender boundaries.
