A closer look at Mont Blanc Signature Absolue EDP

Its style
The strongest accord is sweet (100%), followed by yellow floral and floral. You will probably like it if you enjoy sweet and yellow floral smells and notes like ylang-ylang and tonka bean. Less obvious notes include pink pepper and tuberose. Perfume fans rate it 3.81 out of 5.
How far it spreads
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Lancôme Variety and Givenchy Amarige spread further.
How long it lasts
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Lancôme Variety and Givenchy Amarige last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like tonka bean and cedar are the part that stays longest on the skin.
