Montblanc Legend Men Eau de Parfum

Product Information

Notes include: Bergamot, Pineapple Leaf, Sandalwood, Apple, rose, oak moss, lemon verbena, geranium, lavender, And Tonka Bean Master perfumer Oliver Pescheux was inspired by how the Montblanc ‘Legend’ lives his life with courage, feelings and conviction. The scent makes its mark upon Montblanc’s hundred-year history, asserting a new kind of masculinity. Legend Eau de Parfum invites all men to challenge themselves and discover what kind of legend they are, projecting a sense of purpose, charisma and authenticity through the fragrance. I’d say that both of these are moderate. I know EDP has the higher concentration, but it doesn’t feel any stronger when I compare it to the original. The sillage is about the same at its peak. Maybe EDP goes a little longer with its strength, but that’s about it.

Legend eau de parfum starts off with a pretty strong violet leaf note, some bergamot, and leather. It’s fresh and somewhat green, with what I’m guessing is their synthetic oakmoss substitute. There’s really not much going on here, it feels pretty flat. Alcohol Denat.

Montblanc Legend EDP still lingered on my skin after nine to ten hours. What’s Special About The Bottle?

Legend EDT gives me 5-6 hours of solid wear. During testing, I’ve gotten between 6.5-8 hours of wear from the EDP version. Neither one is going to give a marathon type of wear, but the EDP has the clear edge here. Mont Blanc Legend is a very versatile scent and that’s definitely one of its strengths. It can be worn year round and fits in, within all environments. It is attractive enough for dates, can go out for an evening, but doesn’t have that massive club beast persona. There’s nothing all that new with the eau de parfum, to make it a must have versus the original. I don’t think it smells any better and the performance, isn’t that much better. Honestly, the fragrance strikes me as just fine. If you liked the original, you’ll probably like the eau de parfum, even if you don’t necessarily need a bottle for yourself. Legend from Mont Blanc is still being used to inspire new flankers for the brand. The latest is an eau de parfum version of the famous Legend formula. I recently got a hold of a sample of Legend EDP to test it out and wanted to do another comparison post, with the original. Which of these is better? Lasts longer? Is the better buy?

Reviews

Between these two? I’d rather wear the EDT. Again, I’m not even much of a fan of Legend, but it at least has some more personality. The EDP is closer to A&F Fierce or Egoiste Platinum, than is the EDT, but isn’t as good as either of those fragrances. Montblanc Legend EDP plays with three addictive fragrance families: woody, aromatic and fougere. From the very first spritz, the Eau de Parfum awakens the senses with an energising bergamot note and fresh violet leaves. The heart contains a bouquet of florals, including magnolia, geranium and heady jasmine for a touch of elegance as the scent warms into a new vibrant woody core. The Eau de Parfum finishes with a captivating trail of sensual leather and oak moss that’s reminiscent of the forest floor.
