Montaigne by the French house Caron is a floral with a sweet, citrusy opening, composed by Jean Claude Delville and released in 2018 for women. Everyone who has described it calls it floral, most also find it gourmand and citrusy, and a minority mention spice, wood and amber.

It opens with tangerine and bitter orange alongside mimosa, jasmine and coriander, a bright and slightly spicy start where mimosa adds a honeyed, powdery softness. The heart pairs narcissus, a green and slightly animalic flower, with the tart darkness of black currant. The base settles into sandalwood, vanilla, amber and ambrette, a creamy, warm, musky finish that explains the sweet votes.

No wear reports have been collected yet, so longevity and sillage are unknown. A rich floral with a vanilla-amber base of this kind suits autumn, winter and evening wear, and would appeal to someone who likes classic French florals with a warm finish. It is sold in a 100 ml bottle.

Montaigne — unisex fragrance by Caron (released 1987). Top notes: Mimosa, Bitter Orange, Jasmine, Coriander, Tangerine. Heart notes: Narcissus, Black Currant. Base notes: Amber, Sandalwood, Vanille, Ambrette (Musk Mallow). — Parfica open fragrance database
