I tested this Legend EDP last week and it didn’t seem special to me. I found it rich, yes, but nothing I haven’t smelled before. It smells soapy, maybe slightly floral… green. When it dries down, it smells almost identical to Tous Man Intense; I think the only difference is that this Legend lacks petit grain. I don’t know, it didn’t feel like an EDP to me. Longevity isn’t bad, but I repeat: “nothing out of this world.” I can’t imagine the EDT. For those who like it, I recommend trying Tous; you pay much less for similar or better quality.
I didn’t expect much from this perfume and was pleasantly surprised. It’s ideal for cold or mild weather. It’s not a monster in terms of longevity or sillage; this is somewhat weak, but it gets the job done. Rich scent where the violet really shines. Perfect for a date; people will like it and it won’t overwhelm your partner unless you overdo the trigger. 7.5/10.
I was gifted a sample and it was the only Montblanc I was missing to test. It’s similar to the original but changes slightly in scent; yes, it’s darker, especially over time. That’s where it loses its characteristic playfulness and, for me, its magic. The performance is better; you can tell the difference between EDT and EDP, but it’s a shame the scent changes and it’s no longer as versatile. I’ll stick with the original or Percival.
Elegant, masculine, mature, and serious fragrance. The opening is potent, though the evolution is linear yet pleasant. The notes aren’t surprising, but it follows a logical, well-thought-out olfactory structure.
My current fragrance, simply a beast, elegant and masculine. The leather accord gives it distinction compared to its EDT sibling; it’s super versatile. Lasts more than 8 hours on skin and up to a wash on clothes. To me, after 2 hours it seems to have poor projection, but if it does project, I catch it intermittently. You’ll get compliments; I recommend it 100%.
A Montblanc Legend EDT, but a terrible one: overly synthetic with a bitter-aquatic edge that doesn’t work for me. The previous EDT was infinitely superior. It opens citrusy and aquatic with a woody base, but I can’t stand it. I don’t detect leather; it reminds me of Fierce by A&F but lower quality and ugly. The sillage is moderate to low, though it sometimes throws some notes a few hours in. I’m not keeping it; one of the worst new fragrances I’ve tried. Mega FAIL.
Loved it. Smells like a clean man.
It was my wedding perfume; my wife and I absolutely loved it. The violet opening with bergamot and moss gave it a perfect twist that earned us a thousand compliments. Unfortunately, after a year, a 2022 batch turned grossly sour, losing all its notes. A total disappointment, honestly sad.
The oakmoss really stands out to me as it dries down, but it just doesn’t work for me; it feels too mature, dense, and old-school.
Very long-lasting; mine just ran out. To me, it’s an underrated gem—I love it!
A very rich fragrance, perfectly suitable for blind buying. It’s sweet and fresh, and it doesn’t feel expensive to me at all.
What can I say? It’s spectacular. I’m new to perfumes and recently started my collection; so far, it’s my Top 1. It has a medium trail and amazing projection. The opening is weak, but once it dries, it’s a completely different perfume. It lasts on my skin for 13 hours! I found it for about $40 at Costco Mexico. I highly recommend buying it if it’s on discount; I wasn’t willing to pay the store price ($120). It’s a total crowd-pleaser; I bought it blind and loved it. It’s not one of those perfumes you need to smell before buying, in my opinion. 10/10.
Amazing perfume! I think it’s my favorite in the collection. Although it’s not listed in the notes, I still detect a delicious pineapple aroma in the opening, though it disappears later, leaving that very masculine leather scent; when I wear it, my wife says it smells like a man. The only downside is that, even though it’s an Eau de Parfum, I’d have liked a bit more longevity and projection, though it’s not bad. I’ll definitely keep buying it; I hope they don’t discontinue it like the late Legend Intense.
A fragrance with contrasting but balanced aromas. I felt a very acidic opening of bergamot contrasted with white florals and a soft jasmine that projects infinitely. As it dries down, it shifts from citrus to floral and soapy, merging into the skin and transforming into an intense, woody magnolia floral with leather nuances, reminiscent of Dior Homme Original but less dark and cleaner. For me, the first part feels unisex before evolving into an elegant classic men’s fragrance: woody but smelling like shaving foam. It gains power as it dries, becoming woodier without losing its clean vibe, with exquisite jasmine and magnolia. It’s a fragrance of contrasts: from very sharp and alcoholic to floral, soapy, and woody, ending in mature leather. A treat that’s almost forgotten in 2024, sitting between retro and today’s sweetness. It’s a timeless quality aroma for someone serious, clean, and elegant who doesn’t follow trends, powerful but not scandalous. This Legend is made to evolve on skin; if you only test it fresh, it’ll seem citrusy and floral, but if you let it oxidize, it shows its classic virtues. I was surprised it stands out over ambient scents. If it’s not love at first sight, give it a chance to prove its performance until the end of the day: it’s a good buy.
A very ozonic, synthetic opening, smelling like pure alcohol as the description says. Low projection and longevity of about 6 hours. It stays close to the skin with strong woody, mossy, and leather notes. I’d define it as an elegant perfume for wearing with a suit. It reminded me of Legend EDT, and I thought it would be better in projection and longevity, but it isn’t.
If you’re looking for a fragrance for almost everything, this is the one. I bought it to change my signature scent, and it fits perfectly. The smell reminds me of Drakkar Noir or Abercrombie Fierce but much more modern; woods and florals stand out with a totally masculine twist, adding a light leather note that’s not challenging. It’s one of those that most people like. For extreme heat or intense cold, there are better options, but I recommend it for night in summer and day in winter. It lasts long enough (6-7 hours on skin) with medium projection. I love it, especially if you’re a fan of ‘alpha male’ or ‘bad boy’ fragrances, because it gets very close to that vibe.
The projection holds strong for up to 6 hours (people who didn’t know I was wearing it have complimented me), and I could smell the trail; afterward, it settles close to the skin for over 9 hours. I wore it on a hot day and it wasn’t bothersome at all. Just 5 sprays were enough.
Soapy violets wrapped in leather and submerged in a pool of ambroxan and moss. A modern, mature twist on the fougère formula (metallic, 90s style, with citrus touches) of Platinum Égoïste, where freshness is sacrificed for more body. It leans into the blue fragrance category due to the soapy tones of the violet-moss combo, which to my nose seem to add lavender and lots of ambroxan, with that powdery Fierce sensation that softens the leather base. Markedly masculine, ideal for work, casual, semi-formal, or dates if you want to convey cleanliness and seriousness without being cloying. Although it’s a derivative of very common scents (Fierce, Sauvage, Aventus, Polo Blue, etc.), it’s particular enough not to get lost. Good longevity (6-7 hours), with moderate projection and trail.
I appreciate it more every day: it’s masculine, smells great, and projects well… nothing to envy from €100 perfumes.
These are among my favorites. On my skin, it has top-tier projection and longevity, lasting around 4 to 6 hours. My friends absolutely love it.
Total fiasco; I don’t know if it’s my pH or if they sold me a defective one, I can’t feel anything, I regret buying it blindly.
FIERCELY… YOUNG ADULT. It feels like it was yesterday, the afternoon I relived memories from my high school days, when Legend EDT was my formal day scent alongside Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc for the informal ones. After opening the box and seeing the bottle, spraying it in the blink of an eye transported me back to those passages between 2012 and 2015. The Legend scent always seemed particular to me, hard to describe, and despite years of experience smelling hundreds of perfumes, it still generates confusion. The opening shows a herbal freshness mixed with the cold, metallic sui generis accord of Fierce, though without the harshness. The transition to the heart reveals an ambroxan that accentuates the metallic side and a subtle leather that darkens the composition and adds maturity versus its American reference. Finally, the base turns slightly soapy and sweet, while the darkness of the heart fades: the closing of a modernization of a century-old classic. ORIGINALITY Although it’s an improvement over the A&F signature profile, Montblanc loses points for lacking genuineness. If A&F had launched it as Fierce EDP, the applause would be complete for presenting a modernization of their classic. CLIMATE For temperatures between 20 and 30°C, I see it as fantastic. Below that, it’s fine, but you might go for denser options; if you exceed the range, lighter options work better. VERSATILITY If you were a user of Fierce or Legend EDT in your youth and want to remember those days with a modern, sophisticated twist, go for it. For new users, it seems like a perfect signature for the office starting at 25, or as an option for formal events for younger folks. PERFORMANCE At 20-25°C with 5 sprays (batch 04M17M052, Feb 2022): -Longevity and projection: 1st hour projects at arm’s length, retreats to shoulders by the 3rd, then to skin-level until disappearing by the 6th or 7th hour. -Trail: leaves a mark while walking for the first hour or so. At 25-30°C with the same sprays: projection increases for half an hour (arm’s length), then performance is similar to before. Trail is the same. REFORMULATIONS I haven’t compared other batches, so I have no info. SHOULD I RECOMMEND BUYING IT? Resounding yes. It seems like a perfect evolution for users who wore the American alpha male liquid or as an alternative to current blue perfumes, standing out for having extra sophistication. I usually recommend options to open the spectrum before buying; in this case, yes, so you know the twists in the Fierce profile: -Montblanc Legend EDT: sweeter, fresher, cheaper, and with adjusted performance. -A&F Fierce EDC: the original, which set the trend in the 2000s. Fantastic for remembering eras or standing out from what’s sold. -Chanel Égoïste Platinum EDT: shares the Fierce profile and takes it to a refined version with the classic powdery touch of the brand… paradoxically, it came out years ago.
I agree with several reviews; very masculine scent, so masculine I’d say it’s for 25 and up. Someone said it smells like Keanu Reeves in the lawyer movie, and I couldn’t agree more; it smells like a clean man, white shirt and all. I don’t wear it for formal occasions, but I have no regrets. It stands out on sunny, fresh autumn or spring days, temperate climates, though it also works in climates that aren’t too cold or too hot. Lasts at least 7 hours and projects quite well for the first hour. A friend sitting a meter away told me it smelled great and she had five sniffles. If you catch it for under $35, highly recommended.
Versatility bottled. Smells like soap and wood, like a 30-year-old man just out of the shower, like a young dad. It’s the classic scent of male cleanliness, what you imagine Keanu Reeves smelled like in The Devil’s Advocate or that office buddy with the side part. The best part: its universality. Everyone will like it and it goes with any season, temperature, or moment. It probably has the best longevity and projection of the entire Montblanc line. Still, it’s a scent you’d wish lasted longer than it does. The trail is moderate for the first 2-3 hours, then it stays close to the skin where it accompanies you discreetly for the rest of the day.
I was really hoping to like this; I’d seen very good reviews. But it was a total letdown. It smells very generic and longevity and projection are very poor, at least on my skin. It was a good price so I didn’t hesitate to buy it, but it wasn’t such a loss because I gave it to my dad. Not recommended. Scent: 6/10, Longevity: 3/10, Projection: 2/10, Originality: 2/10. That was my experience. Maybe I got olfactory fatigue, but that’s what I noticed after several days.
Sweet and powdery aroma, very tasty. If you want to know what it smells like, try Axe Apollo deodorant. Longevity is terrible for an EDP, maybe two hours at best. I won’t be buying this again.
This is the first perfume I’ve bought for myself; it smells amazing, like just out of the shower. The problem is the longevity—it doesn’t last more than two hours for me and projects very little. I guess it’s my pH (it’s very weak); I’ve heard Montblancs have a bad reputation for fading quickly. Great disappointment because it smells so rich, but it’s a shame it lasts so little.
The comments about poor longevity don’t add up for me. If someone says they can’t smell it when you’re right next to them, ask if they can still smell it; they’ll probably confirm they can, just not right up against your skin.
I don’t get all the complaints about longevity. On my skin, it lasts easily 6 hours and on clothes more than 14. The bergamot opening is the star note, with that ozonic touch. Delicious.
Smells exactly like Fierce, and let me tell you, I never got along with that one. If you like it, better test it out before spending money or just buy the original directly.
Aquatic, leather, floral, earthy… very nice.
One of the most disappointing perfumes in my collection. Very nice, soapy, floral scent. But projection and longevity are quite mediocre. I wore it to a salon event and it was brutally overpowered. It’s a shame because I liked the aroma, but simply isn’t worth spending money on a bottle that lasts 2 hours.
A reinterpretation that doesn’t seek to break molds but to refine them. From the start, the bergamot adds a clean, restrained shine, while the violet leaves introduce a green, damp freshness, with a slight metallic nuance, like light filtering over wet stone. The heart flows without surprises: jasmine and magnolia wrapped in soft woods, without drama but with intention, like a hushed conversation in a sunlit room. Everything breathes serenity, without urgency. The base provides anchor and maturity: oakmoss and leather build an earthy, dark foundation, but not heavy. There are echoes of a damp forest, aged pages, and well-cared-for surfaces. The leather doesn’t intrude; it accompanies, hints, tracing an elegant line of continuity. It’s a composition that prioritizes measure over impact, the firm stroke over the exuberant signature. Designed for those who value discreet elegance and well-measured detail. A presence that doesn’t need to impose, but leaves a mark. Classic in its bearing, contemporary in its way of being. If it were classical music, it would be a slow movement by Rachmaninov: romantic, introspective, structured. In jazz key, it would evoke Till Brönner: refined, melodic, precise technique, and contained atmosphere. Color? A graphite gray with green and brown veins: contemporary sobriety in natural tones.
For me, it lacked a fresh or fruity touch in the dry-down to balance the dark leather, which is very good but too one-dimensional. It also lacked that contrast to avoid feeling repetitive or generic. Otherwise, it’s fine: citrus-floral opening, good trail and longevity. Let’s say if you get it as a gift, it’s okay, but there are better options if you’re buying it outright. Repeating myself: if they had added a green or fresh contrast in the dry-down, but as it is, just the leather with a bit of wood makes it too serious for me.
I bought it blind, and from the first day to the last, it never convinced me, not even the opening. My wife never gave me a single compliment; it’s one of those perfumes I’d spray just to get it off as fast as possible. I don’t think the scent is the main problem, but rather its performance, which is extremely low, like almost everything from MB. I wouldn’t buy it again, and if someone gifted it to me, I’d sell it, because that scent just doesn’t suit me; it smelled like mosquito repellent. Sorry.
Great opening, fresh citrus touch, and soon evolves to reveal the wood and floral notes. In the dry-down, it really lasts and sticks to the skin. In my case, it wasn’t pleasant at all; the leather feels quite synthetic and gave me an unbearable insect repellent aroma. It’s very projecting and long-lasting (quite a bit)… Too bad. For me, it’s not pleasant. Every nose has its own world, and from my world, this one stays outside.
It’s very good and suitable for any occasion. The only downside is that it doesn’t last long, but it’s worth it for the price-to-quality ratio since it’s so cheap. I recommend it; it works for all seasons.
Montblanc Legend EDT gives this a thousand times. Its longevity is a bit weaker, but with its red apple note, it’s pleasant for daily wear on fresh days. This Montblanc Legend EDP, however, doesn’t speak to me: it feels very mature, very woody, with aquatic citrus, and the leather really stands out. I like leather only as a subtle background note, but here it’s the star alongside the woods, giving off an insect repellent vibe. I don’t detect the other notes; it smells heavy, dense, old-fashioned, overly mature, and vulgar. The difference is the skin: I wouldn’t wear this, nor gift it. Scent: 0, I hate it. Longevity: 8, it performs well on skin, though when you dislike a scent, you notice it more. Projection: 7, with 15 sprays it lasts over 2 meters for 2-3 hours, then stays close but you can still smell it for another 3 hours. Advice: Don’t use in heat; it’s for fall and winter. In a car or enclosed spaces, it makes me nauseous and I’d throw up. I’m tired of it. I don’t understand the votes for violet leaves; this is clearly leather and wood with aquatic citrus. Enjoy it if you must. I see it as something only for someone over 60, and honestly, I don’t want to see or smell it on anyone.
It starts citrusy, so wait about 4 seconds before sniffing to avoid the alcohol blast. The citrus fades quickly, giving way to a violet leaf scent with a mossy touch reminiscent of fresh, damp wood. The violets smell like green leaves, kind of like Ego gel (sounds weird, but that’s the vibe). What dominates is that mix of violet and wood held back by jasmine. The horn note is there, but if I don’t mention it, you won’t notice because the other notes overpower it. It’s a tug-of-war between the fresh gel-like touch and the leather. Projection is low to medium; it lasts decently on skin for about 5 hours, but it’s not a bomb. Ideal for indoor settings or cold weather.
Hi, I’m new here but I’ve been collecting perfumes for years. I picked this up on sale since I didn’t have anything from the Montblanc line. I loved it; even though I’m not an expert in molecules, I detect wood, something sweet, and safe leather, and I think violets too. It’s a good buy: long-lasting, smells great, well-made, and works for all four seasons.
