Comment: Aoud Musk is part of the Bronze Collection
Aoud Musk is yet another lacklustre Montale oud creation – a sweet composition, with tactfully discreet saffron top notes. Unfortunately, it comes across as a lighter version of Nasomatto's Duro, with a collective cedar-like aroma. But it's only when one realises that another Montale offering, Wild Aoud, also smells very similar to this Nasomatto release that any interest in Aoud Musk diminishes to zero.
