Malaita

Didn't know this one at all. Looked it up on fragantica and decided to blind buy it by the former reviews. No regrets, it's a lovely scent. A fresh, yet warm mandarin smell that makes me very happy. I bought it in The Netherlands for 9,99 euro's. Now it's even cheaper: 7,99 for 100 ml. For Dutch ladies: Kijkshop.

I just love it. It was love at first sniff! In the country i love it`s almost impossible to get it. A relative of mine brought it from spain to me. It`s very fresh but still intresting. Most ppl love how it suits me.

Montanas "Malaita" is one of those scents that raised great hopes in me since I like several Montana scents and the notes too sounded promising, the thing that I didn't expect was how very aftershave like it smells on my skin! I get lots of cedar with a generous pinch of myrrh, a mellow sandalwood note thats hiding a dewy jasmine (but I have to inhale deep and really look for that jasmine) and a hint of bergamot that is playing with what -I assume- are the water notes and the mellon. I was hoping for a spicy yet feminine aquatic and wasn't prepared for a real beautiful yet very masculine scent. It is marketed as a female scent but it doesn't indicate that on the bottle or on the box...so I am really wondering if there is some mistake? I like unisex and don't mind using male fragrances...but it must not smell on me like I grabbed the wrong bottle. I like scents, all scents, to melt into my chemistry and compliment me - and Malaita is beautiful if you like unisex scents or if your chemistry defies the evolvement of a male vibe that is too dominating and starts to fight with my feminine aura. Alas for me I can't wear it, but the bottle has a new home when a male friend sprayed it on and fell instantly in love with it...Sometimes I think scents choose you and not vice versa. Silage is: spicy and pretty - Longevity is: 6+ hours. Test before purchase!! Good luck : )
