The house behind the fragrance / 1906
Montblanc
Montblanc began with writing instruments in 1906. The house’s fragrance collections include Legend and Explorer, both featured in this journal.

Montblanc Legend Spirit is a nice little fragrance, to my mind. Light, with a fougère feel: citrus and a little woodiness. A simpler, airier option compared with Montblanc Legend — that one is a bit fuller. Spirit — the ‘spirit of the legend’ — feels quite fitting as a name.
It works well for summer. When you want something light, without too much density — why not? Longevity on me is middling, perhaps around six hours.
Overall, Montblanc fragrances are quite affordable. I don’t know how things will change, but for now the prices are very reasonable. So they’re worth a look: this could be another option to keep on hand for certain occasions.
But, as always, start with a sample. Spend some time wearing it, see whether you enjoy this style and how the fragrance develops on you. Then decide whether it belongs in your collection.
