{"product_id":"montale-paris-oud-island-sample","title":"Montale Oud Island Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is Montale Oud Island, a perfume by Montale, offered here as a sample. There is no recorded pyramid on this page, because we only print notes we can trace. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNo pyramid here\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record for Oud Island stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can. Give it time to settle before you judge it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore it can be filled\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn request means we do not have Montale Oud Island ready to decant at this moment. Your message through the form on this page tells us there is interest; we promise no date. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmall size, same perfume\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA decant is perfume poured over from the original bottle into a smaller one. For Oud Island that means a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our label on it. The vial closes tightly and fits in a pocket or bag, so you can test it wherever your day goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNothing on record ties Oud Island to a season or a moment, and that makes a broad test the best one. Ask someone you trust what they notice, because your own nose adapts quickly. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho Oud Island is aimed at is not on record with us. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving. If Montale is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Montale Oud Island as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a decant you find out in a week what a description cannot tell you in a page. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it; it is not an official brand sample, and Montale has no part in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this the same perfume as the full bottle?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Montale Oud Island and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy does this page list no notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo note list is on record with us for Montale Oud Island, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich size should I choose?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Oud Island; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montale","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67706682245274,"sku":"DG-MPA-OUD-ISLAND-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67706682278042,"sku":"DG-MPA-OUD-ISLAND-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67706682310810,"sku":"DG-MPA-OUD-ISLAND-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/montale-paris-oud-island-sample.jpg?v=1791508829","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/montale-paris-oud-island-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
