Signature Absolue

The first time I wore this, I was not very impressed. I thought it was OK and a little sharp in the opening. And something odd smelling that I can’t put my finger on. It had a strong woodiness in the base. And the projection and longevity were terrible. BUT NOW... after letting it sit for about a week I have fallen madly in love😍 the odd smell, and sharp opening have completely disappeared. It’s not as Woody anymore. And The projection and longevity are amazing. I smell this creamy tropical happy perfume surrounding me all day🙌🏻 the tuberose has a sweet coconut vibe to it. (NOT sunscreen) And the frangipani is so tropical and creamy smelling. I’m picking up more of the pear and mandarin now as well. Such a mood boosting fragrance. The ylang ylang is there giving this perfume an extra sprinkling of happy yellow floral. I think this is perfect for summertime! Your own little private vacation in a bottle! Moral of the story is, don’t judge this perfume by the first or even second wear. Give it a little time and it turns into something magical 😋

This is summer in a bottle, an explosion of frangipani, and one of the most gorgeous fragrances I've encountered in 40+ years of wearing perfume. It definitely has a 90's vibe, but in a very good way. This fragrance reminds me of the original Carolina Herrera EDP and Givenchy's Amarige. She's warm, sweet, playful, and enticing. Imagine sitting by a pool at a tropical island resort, sipping a fruity cocktail and surrounded by exotic flowers. This fragrance is perfect if you don't want to smell like everyone else. At first I thought longevity was poor, but I’ve been getting compliments many hours after applying. The sillage of this is perfect, too. This was an instalove for me. I bought the biggest bottle immediately then returned and picked up a back-up bottle the next day. It's one of the most exquisite and addictive fragrances I've ever smelled, and the heavy glass bottle is to-die-for. 3 weeks later... I'm now completely obsessed with this fragrance. It's an absolute dream.

Love at first sniff. This is sooooooo elegant. Bright, citrusy on the right level, together with such ease. It's difficult to explain, but it conveys radiance to me, gold, sunlight, a very chic woman, a white flowy blouse, finesse. Had to buy it. It grabbed me by my hair. I pair it with philosykos sometimes and it is the best layering ever, since philosykos balances out Montblancs sweetness with freshness. I have a full bottle and am already thinking about what I'm going to do when it's finished (it's nowhere near done). I am obsessed with this fragrance like I have been with very few scents.

This is such a sophisticated fragrance. I was so sad when my bottle ran out and I will be repurchasing soon! I feel like this is so versatile. You can wear it everyday and smell like a lovely put-together person, or you can wear this at a fancy event to smell unique! Its light, feminine, and so so addictive. I would get so happy every time I got to wear it or smell it it was truly my favorite fragrance. The name for it is so fitting. I would honestly make this my signature scent.

I went in to the perfume store specifically to smell Montblanc Signature as I had heard good things about it. It didn't wow me on the card so I ended up getting two other fragrances and in my bag the nice clerk gave me a sample of Montblanc Signature Absolu and 😍 wow! I like it so much from the very first sniff. It's sweet, creamy such a signature scent like the name suggests. It doesn't last that long but it's so beautiful that I'm going back for the full bottle

Beautiful start - floral, ambery, fruity. A bit synthetic though as I feel a headache starting from my nasal tracts. I hope it will go away and is only weather-related. It smells luxurious, evokes thoughts of lounging on a big bed covered with white veil. My first though was: how does anyone want to smell any different. Before the headache... Pear mixes greatly with tonka bean and frangipani softens tuberose. It feels bright. It reminds me of Extatic by Balmain

This one is special. It is elegant but fun, feminine without being too sweet and this is exactly what I like about it...It is playful without trying too hard and captures attention unwittingly. Interesting and distinct. It is also fit for virtually any occasion, everyday, evening, office...It has a good sillage, but it's not obnoxious and for me it lasts 5-8 hours. Amazing, well thought out composition with a lot of imagination.

The perfect all-rounder. Manages to be both subtly bright in the opening and warmly comforting in the dry down. This reliable companion is suitable for all seasons and both day or night appropriate. Lasts an entire day at work, and is something I find myself always wanting to wear. Absolute love. I find the original signature much too sticky-sweet - whereas the absolue has soft, subtle intrigue.

Glorious, this is all about the ylang and frangipani and playing up their tropical sweet nuances of mango pulp and and creamy banana. Very strong out of the bottle and my skin, lasts well over 8 hrs from my trial spray. Once this macerates, it will definitely be phenomenal. Best in warm weather as with scents in this family.

No creo que las únicas frutas a la salida sean solo mandarina y pera, huele muy tropical y pensaría que tiene mango, me resulta al inicio muy similar a fame de Paco Rabanne, después hay flores amarillas y se siente cremoso. Es un aroma muy tropical con un bonito fondo amaderado. Me parece una fragancia hermosa e inofensiva.

Such a burst of citrus at the open and it dries down to be such lush tropical vibes but not in a sunscreen way. It’s like actual tropical fruit hanging from dewy trees surrounded by tropical flowers. Somehow this manages to not come across too summery either. It’s a brilliant, uplifting year-round wear.

Million Gold for Her is on my wish list but it's a little intense (I'm prone to migraine)so I've been hesitant. This little gem popped up on a discounter. Great deal and it is a little softer less intense version. Super happy with it

OK, I just tried this a few hours ago and it is giving me HUGE Libre/Libre Intense vibes. It is not similar to the original Signature at all but for me that's a good thing because I don't care for it.

Smells like a powdery vanilla with a bit of citrus to me. There's a floral note I can't identify - perhaps the frangipani. Does not smell like the notes listed but very warm cosy bright smell.

lovely one,good for spring and summer but very weak doesnt stay long,sorry for this one

I quite like this perfume. It has a very tropical feel to me that makes me think of Tahiti or Fiji and being at a beach resort. I get a fruity and citric quality from the mandarin orange and a slight spiciness from the pink pepper at the beginning, but I can't really smell the pear in this. I think I would have liked the opening more if there was less pink pepper though. In the heart notes it's mainly about the banana sweet yellow florals to me. I can smell the ylang ylang and the frangipani, but I'm not really getting much tuberose in this unlike everyone else. Only just a touch really. This stage reminds me of a floral frangipani and ylang ylang scented sunscreen, which I love! Lastly, in the base notes I can smell both the vanilic and slightly gourmand smelling tonka bean and the woody and deep smell of cedar. I feel like I would have preferred it if this stage were a bit subtler so that the yellow florals at the heart of this fragrance could shine a bit more. This fragrance probably reminds me most of La Femme by Prada. Longevity was an average 6 hours on me and the sillage was moderate and could be smelt at an arm's length away. This could be worn during the daytime during all of the seasons except winter, but it makes me think of summer the most. It's very feminine too. It's a very nice perfume and I'd give it a 7/10. I think it's something I could potentially buy my mom or other women that I know that love floral fragrances. It's not full bottle worthy for me though.

After a fluffy cloud of white musk, vanilla, peonies and clementines with the original Signature, Montblanc decided to give us a tropical floral bomb with tuberose, mixed with citrus and fruits. So far, sounds great. The OG Signature is one of my favourites fragrances in my collection, I am on my second bottle. It’s so addictive smelling and so inexpensive, it’s a true gem! I am not sure if Signature Absolute will be such a big love as the original. I mean, all those floral notes listed are my favourite for a summertime scent: ylang ylang, frangipani, tuberose. I love pear, tonka beans and pink pepper in fragrances, and I do like mandarin oranges and cedar. So the result should be a dream come true for me. But it lacks the sweetness I want in my tropical scents, on me it’s not sweet in the slightest. I think the tuberose used in Signature Absolute is rather a green one because the fruits are sweets, tonka beans are usually sweet as well, so it should be a scent perfume. I am not sure yet, but I think it’s the case where I want to love the scent more than I actually do. I want to sample it further before committing to get a full bottle or to move on. After a initial test, it didn’t convince that I should buy a bottle. And it’s fairly reasonably priced like the original Signature. Will update if I decide to get it! Jury is still out on this...

This is a great scent!! I knew I’d love it before I smelled it based on the notes. I wasn’t disappointed. It’s so pretty! I adore ylang ylang in fragrances and this one had a noticeable creamy ylang ylang note but to me it isn’t overpowering. This isn’t super ambery on my skin. I’d say it’s more fruity floral but it does have a beautiful depth. The notes here don’t say there’s amber, but rather tonka and cedar. However, I have a tester bottle and it states it is a floral ambery fruity scent. Notes are listed (obviously not in full) Mandarin, ylang, Golden Amber. It’s gorgeous!! Almost a love, however I reserve that that for very few scents! This could be a beautiful signature scent and can be worn in any season.

This perfume is too strong for me. It’s as overpowering and heavy as a bottle of fabric softener, making it impossible for me to distinguish the individual notes, and the scent also smells very old-fashioned. P/s: After a few days of using it in 15–20°C weather, I find that it actually smells quite nice. It’s a very strong but refined and elegant kind of scent, suitable for wearing in the office. The longevity is pretty good as well—the fragrance is still noticeable by the end of the day.

The original became popular for being a clean and easy-to-wear fragrance and I think this will be the same! It’s more fresh and sparkling compared to the first, I get the smell of frangipani blended with fruit. But it’s not too sweet or too floral or too fruity, it’s a perfect balance. It smells pretty, an easy reach for when you need something uncomplicated, feminine and elegant. 💛 P.s. I think “Signature Sun” would have been a more fitting name.
