The Legend perfume by Montblanc

Building on this success, the Montblanc brand decided to expand its activity to the point of sublimating its multiple accessories by wearing a perfume. True undisputed myth of the world of luxury, Montblanc thus decided to call its 2011 perfume in its image: Legend.

The prestige of the Maison Montblanc

Montblanc is a name that has sounded like a concentrate of expertise and quality since its creation in 1906 in Hamburg. The brand alone combines countless qualities such as inspiration, virtuosity and elegance. Also, if this materializes through one of his most famous writing tools, the Meisterstück pen, it can also be felt in each of his scents. What is more, despite its now ancestral history, the Montblanc house has evolved with the times, gradually rising to the highest peak of excellence. Montblanc has become an icon of refinement known across the entire planet. If writing was her first way of expressing herself, perfume is part of the continuity of her legendary history. Too, what better way than to pay homage to this one than by naming it Legend. This juice seems perfectly anchored in the history of the house. He is in no way provoking and appears soberly with sensuality. He much prefers elegance to arrogance and addresses himself to a serene, determined man of natural class.

The timeless freshness of Legend

It was the perfumer Olivier Pescheux who had the difficult task of symbolizing the image of the Montblanc house in the form of a perfume. The smell of Legend begins with a strong and fiery freshness associated with an aromatic touch. Lavender, a major ingredient in men’s perfumery, thus touches the liveliness of bergamot. Likewise, Litsea cubeba, an exotic variety of verbena, brings here its aromatic facet. Then, as if that were not enough to energize our daily lives, the liveliness of Legend is further increased by the presence of evernyl, a synthetic molecule reproducing the scent of oak moss, at the same time vegetal, sensual and deep. The geranium then brings the elegance of a rose while adding a hint of spices. This modernizes the together while giving it more character. Finally, it all ends with a smooth and comfortable base resulting from the association of tonka bean and sandalwood. Everything is contained in a bottle which is reminiscent of the aesthetics of Montblanc pens. It has a timeless shape and the emblematic codes of the brand. Heavy and soft to the touch, it recalls the sensation one has when holding a Montblanc writing object. Dressed in a deep black contrasting with a metal fret, the set is topped with a silver stopper embossing Montblanc’s iconic six-pointed star.

In 2011, the Montblanc house presented “Legend”, which perfectly symbolizes the authenticity and the values ​​of the brand. Indeed, “Legend” is in line with the “Meisterstück” pen, Montblanc’s cult pen which has greatly contributed to its success. Sober and uncluttered like the latter, “Legend” stands out with strength and conviction. Both virile and modern, the composition of “Legend” was produced by Olivier Pescheux. It wonderfully embodies the values ​​of the Montblanc house proudly displaying its mythical 6-star branch.

< h2> Legend, the olfactory score by Olivier Pescheux

A graduate of the prestigious school of perfumery, ISIPCA, Olivier Pescheux is currently an employee of the Givaudan group. Simple and discreet man, he affirms “We compose a perfume as we write a score”. At 41, Olivier Pescheux is one of the perfumers who only work for prestigious brands. Olivier Pescheux is able to translate any atmosphere into perfume. He loves to combine varieties of raw materials and molecules. We owe Olivier Pescheux some very beautiful perfumes such as “Higher” by Christian Dior (for which he received a FIFI Adwards), “1 Million” or “Chrome Légend” by Azzaro. To create “Legend”, Olivier Pescheux wanted to oppose strength to softness by associating pineapple, verbena, lavender, but also oak moss, geranium or sandalwood.

Legend, between strength and virility

“Legend »Is based on one of the most famous accords in perfumery, the fougère. This one is nevertheless worked in a much more modern, and more elegant way. “Legend” takes off on the aromatic freshness of lavender, associated with the freshness of bergamot, which are quickly joined by pineapple leaves bringing both exotic and sweet tones. You should know that lavender is used a lot in men’s perfumes. It was one of the ingredients that made up the first Eaux de Cologne. The expression of lavender is reassuring without being exuberant. Within masculine compositions, lavender offers an elegant and refined aromatic touch. The heart of “Legend” denotes a fruity-spicy accord with the presence of rose and geranium contrasted by cedarwood and evernyl. A chemical molecule, evernyl offers tones of oakmoss with more sensuality. With sandalwood, ambroxan and tonka bean, the base symbolizes masculine sensuality. Today, the Montblanc legend is displayed through a perfume. For the wearer, Montblanc is the symbol of strength and virility.

“Legend” perfectly symbolizes the values ​​of the Montblanc house, namely, strength, tranquility and authenticity. In the tradition of the cult pen, “Legend” is a sober essence. Made around a fern accord, the composition of “Legend” is nevertheless much more contemporary. The black and steel bottle brings a final touch of masculine elegance.
