Femme de Montblanc Montblanc for women

Sweet and spicy cinnamon scent. Might not be a safe blind buy for it’s level of sweetness but I still find it quite unique and long lasting. Love the diamond shaped bottle too!

I just found out that they discontinued this fragrance! So disappointing! I really loved it in the winter. Chocolatey and spicy, with just enough fruit and floral to ground it a bit and make it unique.

Angel is my signature since the day of its birth... they are as closed as great-grand aunt cousins twice removed. Basically, they are strangers to each other. Like, never even known of one another's existence.

This number is all about heliotrope - and that's that really. Forget the fruit - I wonder where others here have found it... and forget cinnamon, chocolate and cardamom... forget the lot.
Rather flat and focused on powdery note - which is not bad if you like the genre, but may disappoint you if you look at the voted notes. Not matching.

Hey femme, how you doing old girl? I once wondered what the heck you were all about but now I get it.
Autumn test, skin, bottle now a couple years old, must have matured a bit and bloomed. Initially I thought this scent sucked, now I don’t.

I think it’s a wearable version of Angel. No patchouli in femme, no headaches, brighter, and it dries down like a more vibrant version of perhaps alien future- the red bottle.

Cinnamon, warm, a touch sweet in a non edible way, it’s not spicy, but maybe softly spiced... could be a touch of woods in the rear, I don’t get an aromatic freshie sense from this nor a real fruity sense, and that’s fine, what ever is there is blended really well.

I changed my dislike vote to a like vote.

This is an amazing cold weather perfume. I suppose it smells chocolatey, but to me it smells like fabric softener and clean laundry which is a serious comfort smell for me. I like to wear this one to work because I think it makes me seem serious and responsible, but also it smells so wonderfully comforting. My boyfriend says it smells like an ABC store in Hawaii?? Not sure what that means but apparently he doesn't love it like I do.

Unusual fragrance. Soft, but not weak. Rich but not overwhelming. Interesting but not inaccessible. I think it is a cold weather fragrance, for during the day, since there is something casual in it. Liked the fact that it doesn't reveal itself immediately - one has to wear it a bit in order to understand it. Has something of Lou Lou, something of Sun Moon Stars, something of the early 90s. It could be found quite cheap so I think it's worth having it in your collection if you're into this type of scents.

Cinnamon warm spicey sweet with an acidic sweet fruit background.

I hated this and thought is was a cheapie in the way it developed in my skin in summer. This isn't a favourite, but spraying it on my chest has made this fragrance bloom.

Not a sweet sugary frag.

Not a favourite since I've got others to use up, and this doesn't make me delighted when I've sprayed it on my arm, only down my top do I like getting wafts of it. I've sprayed a Chloe over top but it hasn't dampened the femme frag.

No longer a hate

It's a sweet-sour scent of pineapple, spices and a little of dark chocolate, nice and soft. Suitable for all day wearing, elegant and romantic. Not overpowering.

I've got a full one of these, who wants to buy it? or swap it? Pm me

This was a huge mess of notes to me.
The mixture of cinnamon, sour fruits, patchouli and chocolate combined turned very sour/acidic/ sweet which was reminiscent of the smell of vomit or sweat.
I kept sniffing to see if this would smooth down or settle but unfortunately not.

I sprayed this on on a trip to the supermarket, there was a tiny stand of fragrance just sat there incongruously plonked next to some canned food.
Initially it was a yummy gourmand, a cousin to Angel, I kept sniffing it as I shopped and loved it. After getting distracted and getting through the checkout, I went to sniff it, and wondered what men's fragrance I had applied. Angel's cousin gone, replaced by something masculine. It's nice but only if you like an about turn in your frangrance. I liked the beginning more so it wasn't for me.
I think drag queens on their day off is my mental picture here.

I find this fragrance to be unique and elegant.
The lasting power on me, is all day. I like the
unique flacons the perfumes from Mont Blanc are
contained in. I really like this. I am sure a lot
of other people do as well.

I apologise to those that love this, maybe I got an old bottle.
I blind bought based on reviews.

But

This is rubbish. Liquorice lolly water.
No real notes, complete scrubber
Starts off liquorice and cough mix, and has some deep dusky sugar smell.
Fades and gone within half an hour

Blegh

EDIT
I tried on a pulse point. This did not redeem its self, I could touch on a couple more notes, but on the plus side if anyone likes Thierry's angel but that sits too strongly, then this isn't a bad dupe, quieter but sends a similar vibe

This is a lot different than i was expecting. At first, It honestly smells really strange and cool, like an old museum. It was even giving me a headache. I suffer from migraines chronically, but never induced from a fragrance like this one did. I now understand the totally mixed reviews and how every individual may interpret this completely different than the next. I really dont like it for awhile... And the dry down im still deciding. To me, this is not sweet or gourmand at all. In fact, the complete opposite end of the perfume spectrum: clean, light, fresh, and musky. If baby wipes came in a cinnamon scent--- that's the vibe i'm getting from Mont Blanc. Also quite mature. Definitely not something i'd typically wear. I probably won't get much use from this at all. It's a weird little 'fume. Can't say much more than that. oh, and absolutely no cacao.

Oh, and to my nose, i'm not picking up a similarity to L de lolita, Addict, or Angel at all. I was excited to get this after seeing those comparisons. Everyone smells different, so maybe some of you may get this and get those similarities. But not for me.

I guess it will just be another decodation for my vanity.

I bought this two years ago. It smells delicious without being overpowering. The gourmand notes are the most noticeable. I love the cinnamon and cocoa notes in colder weather, not much of the rest is noticeable on me after it dries down

Tonight I bought the edt version and it's not purple as in pictures,it's blueish and I'm worried that maybe I've bought an aged bottle
I can still get lots of spices(cinnamon,ginger and pepper) and non-descript fruits,after some times it still remains spicy in a warm,pleasant way(I'm very thankful that there's no cardamom on me)I can also get heliotrope,a hint of patchouli which isn't too much or bad)and just a hint of chocolate
I could love it if it was sweeter and more chocolatey,also I wish it was stronger/louder
But I know that most gourmands are't as sweet as I like in first times,and they usually grow on me after a week or so
Gonna edit this if anything changes,for now it's something between meh and like

I've just tried it once on paper and once on my skin.on paper,it reminded me halloween for man,but a less sweet and cold version of it but on my skin it's really nice.as SA sprayed it I could detect spicy fruits.I don't like cardamom but I love cinnamon.strangely I could detect lots of ginger and pepper blended with juicy pine apple and fruity mixture.I didn't buy it because I was hoping to find and try edp version.now that I sniff my wrist,it has changed dramatically.there is soft powdered heliotrope covered with lots of cinnamony chocolate.I know it was not a proper test but I like the drydown so much that I know I'm gonna buy it ASAP and no problem that it's edt,because it's really nice as it is.all in all it's a unique scent.it's a combination of floralfruitygourmand and oriental spicy.it feels modern and also has a classic,timeless quality.I think that it's a must have in my collection.although it's not as sweet and gourmand as I wished,it's worthy buying.it's safer than what I thought but still has something sexy.I even find it very feminine and still think that it's even wearable by men.I know these paradoxes are strange and don't make sense but it's how I honestly feel
I'll write a real review as soon as I buy it

This review is for EDP. Sweet and spicy, feminine and deep...pineapple sweetness spiced with cardamom and a lot of cinnamon. Yes, I also get the Lolita similarity. Gourmand notes prevail, and I don't get flower notes here. The drydown after 5 hours is warm amberly and slightly woody, very pleasant.
It is definately a fall/winter perfume, with good longevity and sillage. Too sweet and fruity for me to love it but I do enjoy its spicy side. Apply with caution, it can be too sweet if overapplied. For me it is not for a day wear. This will warm me during cold rainy evenings.

I like this one and I kept trying to remember what it reminds me of... Forward to the next day when my husband used his Joop Homme - that's what this smells like, just more 'feminine'. I've always loved Joop, so this is a bonus for me :D

This is sweet, balmy spicy for me. Additionally, it's flowery too at the second level. I like it a lot, I think it has some kind of character.. Edt and edp are a bit different but both nice. Edt is lighter, maybe it's little more nice.
It's discontinued though, whatever you find now... It shouldn't get discontinued but all good things sometimes come to their end.
PS: The begining is sooo good! Plus, it's an absolute winter-only perfume...

I'm a bit unsure.

I'm not sure what I'm smelling?

But..
I'm not loving this at all.
Pineapple and Cinnamon?
I'ts quiet heady!

almost citronella like..
Oh my skin does some weird things to perfume sometimes.

chocolate notes (unless there are real expensive like black orchid ) do not work on me.

Beautiful bottle though, and it wasn't expensive at all.

من یه شیشه 75 میل از این عطر دارم که نهایتا 25% استفاده شده

قیمت 100 هزار تومان
قیمت نو این عطر بین 155 تا 160 هست

ضمنا حاضر به تعویض با عطرای دیگه هم هستم البته اگه عطری باشه که به فکر تهیه اش بودم

Packed full of all my favourite notes, I was expecting big things. And it was nice, very chocolatey and sweetly spicy. But there was something lurking in the background that turned on my skin. At first it reminded me of the smell of this plastic watch strap I had when I was a child. The watch strap wouldn't let my skin breathe, and so in summer it would get sweaty after playing tennis, which is gross I know. That's the smell I got when this mixed with my skin chemistry. Like sweaty watch straps. No where near as bad as sweaty feet or sweaty anything else, but not great none the less.

For that reason I'd say try before you buy, it smells great on a tester strip but be careful that your skin chemistry doesn't wreak havoc!

Do you know the smell of an old cleaning cloth or a towel that was left wet for too long?
That's what this perfume smells like on my skin. Of course I get the chocolate, cinnamon and all of the lovely notes. But I also get THAT.

Again, perfume 0 : my skin chemistry 1.

Ooo how JEALOUS am I of you who are getting "hot chocolate liquor" and the cinnamon notes!

I like it, I REALLY do, but I only get florals and musk at the top with maybe some fruit thrown in there and then a nondescript sweet, powdery drydown.

I adore warm and spicy but honestly this smells *much* more like spring. I can definitely tell the heliotrope and the raspberry - those I'm certain of. But the gorgeous "dark chocolate", cardamom, heck even PINEAPPLE - I would *much* rather smell those! Ugh so disappointed at what I thought would be the perfect Christmas scent coming across only as a beautiful spring day on my skin. Where oh where are the spices?! :(
It smells NOTHING AT ALL like Dior Addict, Lolita or Angel. Angel?! Wow where did that even come from?! This reminds me a bit of those cherry-scented soaps they have in restrooms but there is absolutely nothing that reminds me of Angel lol.
It *does* however remind me a bit of Petite Robe Noire and I didn't quite care for that so it may explain why this isn't speaking to me.

It saddens my heart to tuck this away for next year because this is just *not* a cold weather scent for me. Still gorgeous and still something I'll love wearing, just in a different season.

Surprisingly one of my constant go tos! Just very unique, nothing like it! Intriguing, addictive, elegant, sweet powdery, comforting mix. Stays on me 4 hours on skin n much longer on clothes. I'm quickly finishing my 2.5oz bottle! Getting another!

anyone else smells Marzipan in this?? all I get is a delicious naturally smelling marcipan. awesome.

Lovely and girly scent. Also suitable for office day.

Mont Blanc Femme worth buying. Just like Sweet Joy's comments. It's modern and modest. Well blended and longevity is very good.

Chocolate,yes,but also floral, spicy. However, all balanced. no overpowering, nothing too strong. i do appreciate this perfume. Refined.

I'm suprised that other users have trouble with staying power, even the EDT stays all day on me. I really like this, it smells like cinnamon, musk, and cocoa on me. I really like it; although it's an odd smell, it's very comforting

is this discontinued ? i am on the verge of finishing my bottle and it seems i cant find it on stores !
it turns up quite unique on my skin!

I tried EDT version of this.
It is actually very interesting scent. Outstanding.
At first it smells like cookies. Lots of chocolate and cinnamon.
Very sweet and aromatic.
It fades quickly. I think in base notes it's a little bit powdery.
I like how warm and edible it smells at the beginning, but it changes and fades too quickly.

It feels generic, sweet and oldschool. I can't distinguish any note listed here :( I hoped for chocolate chai perfume, but it's a big meh one. Soft, not gourmand, powdery-sugary-heliotrophy juice. I envy those who can smell chocolate and spices in here.

Flowers at the top notes, musk at the end. Very soft

I like it a lot! It's a perfect winter fragrance in my opinion. To me it smells like hot chocolate liquor. Yummy! It's a very rich and warm scent, perfet for wearing it when your hidding under the blanket and it's freezing outside. It's on my must buy in near future list.

In my opinion the EDT and the EDP are quite different.
I have them both, and I think the EDT is sharper, and the EDP is sweeter.

This is an "okay" scent, a little generic, no head-turner; I don't hate, don't love, won't buy again. I have both EDT and EDP. Based on the notes, I was expecting a lot more. The top notes are somewhat sweet, floral-berry with a little gourmand vying with Medicine/camphor quality underneath. There is definitely a fruity-berry quality tempered a bit more than the typical Mall fruitbomb. There is something slightly bitter and rubbery underneath--and a bit sharp. I have tested both Alien and Lady Gaga since this is what it reminded me of--and both are very similar. Alien might be a bit colder, more astringent, LG a little more synthetic definitely floral, but all seem to be in the same genre. Montblanc has a more medicinal quality than either (Bactine?)--and a bit warmer. On a final note, I love the Kenzo line, love almost all their scents, and I have Jungle (the biggest bottle I could get)--and this bears absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to that tropical lush, spicy flowerbomb that is probably not office friendly. How your skin and chemistry reacts is certainly the big variable, but I don't get any kinda of Kenzo in this at all. This IS office friendly...

R/V of EDT. This is a gem, sophisticated classy scent. Very warm and comforting, makes me feel like a real woman. I love the dry down, enveloping me in a cloud of cosyness. You can sense the scent is there, but is not overpowering. Longevity is all day for me, as I get lovely comments asking what Perfume am I wearing. Another fragrance that not alot of people know about where I live. A bonus for me as I like the individuality of me only wearing it.
Definately an oriental, is truly a balmy purple fragrance and the bottle is attractive. Chocolate violets, is what it remids me of, with slithers of pineapple pieces peepimg through. Turkish delights and pretty, petite orange blossoms drifting by. A stunning fragrance to wear. Love it.

Very beautiful fragrance I have the edt and it smells really lovely.
However the EDP is much richer and warmer but I couldn't find it anywhere.
The EDT opens quite sweet with cinnamon pinapple and heliotrope it then dries down very chocolatey and cozy.
Amazing fragrance but if you can get the EDP which is much richer and lasts longer.

É uma fragrância muito especial, oriental e refinada. É um aroma diferente, não é um perfume que todos identifiquem, aconselho a experimentar antes de comprar. Eu especialmente gostei muito de usar e possivelmente vou voltar a comprar. É ideal para o tempo mais frio.
Deveria ter maior fixação.

For EDT. Very, very weak unfortunately . I can tell this fragrance is probably lovely in a Lolita Lempicka type way but it is so weak even on multiple sprays that it is not worth your money at all. You'd be better off with a bar of soap. Damned IFRA regulations are making perfume pointless.

This review is for the EDP

Femme de Montblanc opens with cinnamon and chocolate. Gets juicy in the middle- bergamot, peach, strawberry, then heliotrope, rose, very slight jasmine. More chocolate, patchouli, musk in the creamy drydown. There's a faint smoky bitterness hidden deep somewhere in the warm, spicy sweetness which adds a nice dimension. It is an unusual fragrance. I love it!
Lasts 4- 5 hrs on my skin, longer in cold weather. Moderate sillage.

For some reason I got pepper the first time I tried this on. Maybe the cinnamon-cardamom note turned peppery on my skin. (After a few tries I got the cinnamon.) This made me try layering Femme de Montblanc with Bvlgari Jasmin Noir L'Elixir edp, because I love the peppery note- got an interesting scent that worked for me!

the most beauthiful smell ever i sprayt on my body. Warmt expensive chokolat ohh my good i dont fine the words to describle this best av best fragrance ever good silage long lasting feminine everything what i loking for a frag 10/10

Nice surprise. The cinnamon reviews almost scared me away. This is a redo of LouLou, rounded out by more floral notes like Poison and Curve Crush.

Update: Smells a lot like Anna Sui and Ombré Rose.
Update 2: I 'm surprised I missed the similarity of this to Lolita Lempica .

Hi! well today I am going to tell you all about my experience with Femme by Montblanc EDT.

I used to wear it in the Winter and it was actually great but I didn't think it had much longevity nor sillage...but today, a really hot day here in Argentina I can still smell it, perfect! It's over 7 hours I put a couple of spritzes on...Wow...I highly recommend it...very sexy and delicious! You can almost eat it! lol

The chocolate yum, pineapple oh everything is so yum!!!Men were all starring at me today, they might want to eat me? Funny. For sure it will keep the men coming...Try it, it's a great gourmand. I love it!

I'd like your opinion on edt, please if anyone knows...

About the EdT.
This is unique and so beautiful, and not at all popular here, where I live. The opening is fruity fresh, but just after few seconds it becomes a thick, warm, creamy, slightly nutty, gourmand aroma. I smell some notes which are not listed. For example, I feel crushed apricot seeds, cherries in liqueur covered with dark, exquisite chocolate, almonds and their peels. And that's why I think this scent is from the same shelf as Petite robe noire by Guerlain and Lolita Lempicka scents. I didn't buy it because I had red it was quite similar to Angel which I simply can't stand. But I still kept thinking about it. But no, on me it smells nothing like Angel, on me this is wonderful.
This is a rich, strong, sweet and elegant very high quality scent.
When I spray it on, I think about an early winter morning and about the first snow slowly falling -fresh, creating the impression of something sweet like sugar powder, so unreal, so dreamy. And all this covered with this fragile sensation of celebration of life.

So I forgot I had this fragrance and what it smells like. I saw the bottle it on this site and remembered I had it, but no clue when. Guess where the fragrance appeared next? In one of my dreams. The crazy part is I don't remember what this perfume smells in real life, but I need to have it now. Perfume of my dreams..

I felt in love with this one when one of my professors (woman) entered the room. SHe smelled so nice. If I was a guy I would ask her out. Or if I was a lesbian. I am none of these, so only thing I did is to ask what a perfume she wears. I have it in my collection. It smells a bit like Bvlgari Notte... At least this link I got in my nose after using both. Rich and sexy. Oh, yes my professor was sexy as well he he

Is it discontinued? Cause i made the mistake to finish my bottle and can't find it anywhere...and i miss Femme in my collection

A lovely fragrance i just added to my collection.
The cardamom is very strong at first, but later settles nicely.

This is a fragrance that is quite complex, unique, VERY different and totally non boring. Go for it, if you want to 'experience' a scent, and not just wear one...the notes develop and flow one after the other mingling beautifully.

I love this.
Best for: fans of gourmand frags, and definitely for strictly spice / oriental lovers...

If you enjoy Si, or L by Lolita Lempicka, or Dior Addict, then i think you should add this to your collection :)

Mont Blanc did get it right, especially with such complicated combinations of herbs, fruit and flowers. Longevity - excellent, no need to reapply often as the base lasts - and is the best part of the scent ; sillage - excellent as well, and i have the edt.

I must be anosmic to many scents because I smell nothing after maybe 30 minutes....perhaps 5 sprays are not enough?

Pineapple and vetiver overwhelm in the opening of Femme de Montblanc (EDT) on my skin, smelling like pineapple soda, or possibly cough drops (but VERY TASTY cough drops). Later stages see the pungent, fruity notes take a step back as powdery notes merge to create a smell that I can only describe as "perfumey, fruity, baby powder". It's intriguing, and not altogether unpleasant. I'll need to test it further, but for the price, this is a nice addition to my collection ($20 at Ross).

Just got this for my wife and what can I say, she smells like a sexy root beer float!

Mont Blanc is quickly becoming one of my favorite houses as they rarely set a foot wrong. Most of their fragrances are either very good or great in my opinion; especially when you factor in bang for the buck.

Femme de Montblanc certainly fits that description as well. Yet another winner from Mont Blanc.

Score: 8/10

When i smell this i want to eat a rich Chocolate cake.

In my humble opinion, I think the edp version is a wipe-out. To me it smells like body odor in a bottle.

I personally love the edt- I can smell all the notes and they come together as one delicious aroma. My husband loves this perfume on me- it even smells good on him.

When I bought the edp it was because I believed the edt was so good the edp must be awesome. Such a HUGE disappointment. A total yuck that lasts about 15 minutes and then poof.

If you want a perfume that is reasonable and lasts a few yummy hours try the edt.

This is one of those scents where the reviewer should specify whether it's an EDP or and EDT.
I can't comment on the EDT, but the EDP has none of the sharpness and shrillness some of the reviews below complain about. It's not masculine or overly sweet. It is very feminine, well-blended and like Presence, uncommon - in a good way.

Indeed all the reviews here are for the edp version.I have blind bought the edt and is really lovely but I can only imagine how superb the edp is.The chocolate is very light,a little cinnamon and a creamy vanilla.Is how I imagine a rich woman would smell...now I want the perfume.

The notes here are for the perfume version ONLY!! The EDT notes, according to the Montblanc company website are vastly different. They list: Key ingredients: peach, Turkish rose, tonka bean, and vanilla.

I blind bought the EDT and was extremely disappointed in it as I was expecting something totally different after reading the reviews here and seeing the notes listed.
Be sure you are buying the perfume if you are interested in the njotes seen on this page.

that is probably the only "heavy" winter scent that i can wear during all seasons - very feminine, very distinctive and the fragrance changes on the skin. there is warmth, there is sexual notes but there is also relaxing feeling. i think that is a perfume that can make a woman feel comfortable, confident and extraordinary

So sweet and creamy!!!! I snif sugar,it is a sugary and vanillary scent!!!! very nice and lovely scent!!!! I feel joy and happiness wearing it

The concentration matters on this one!!! I tried the edp years ago and loved it. Recently I bought the edt, not realizing there was a choice and it's really not good. The shrill, thin feeling people are reporting is 100% the edt. The rich, creamy delicious blanket of gorgeous is the edp. Check your concentration before buying a full bottle!

Just had to write for reviewer below who said "this lives up to its cheapy fragrance reputation"? Mont Blanc is a sister company to Cartier known for its luxury items!Anything but a cheap reputation!
This one is beautiful, its rich and warm and envelopes you.Although a floral, its creamy and gets "darker" and quite sensual.I love the cinnamon and the chocolate it contains, yet overall it is quite a gentle feminine fragrance,has a romantic tone and is very beautiful IMHO x

This is a sweet and innocuous floral, the unisex comments astound me. Gentle and quiet, no big nasty sillage here, suitable for work or church. Perhaps a tad spicy, but I don't detect any big cinnamon notes. The weak points with this are poor longevity and somewhat of a generic presentation. While pleasant, nothing special. Unfortunately this lives up to its cheapy fragrance reputation and I would not repurchase.

LOVE this one. At the very beginning it's very fruity, dark and juicy. The dry down is gorgeous, smells clean, yet sexy and interesting. Chocolately and rich, but with a freshness that's hard to describe. It's unlike any else I own, and I definitely crave it. Unfortunately, I find the sillage and longevity to be quite weak, but I don't mind refreshing this one. Highly recommended!

Just received it today and it smells heavenly! It was a blind buy based on reviews, I hoped I would like it. It's a warm scent a bit masculine (somehow reminds me a liitle of Boss Bottled) and sweet also. I think it's better for colder summer/spring evenings and winter/fall. Very sexy scent!

Where I could buy this? I can't find it anywhere...

on the tester it was yummy yum... on my skin... it was like ugghh!!! I had to scrub it off (AND I DID!!!)

Simply delicous... the true smell of a woman..

This was a blind buy for me. I love the sweet bergamot opening, it quickly moves to the middle notes and I get a lot of amber. For some reason my chemistry grabs on to the amber notes in all my perfumes that have it. I was kind of hoping this wouldn't do that but it does.... anywho... it lasts about 2 hours on my wrist and I've sprayed it on my décolletage area. I get whiffs of violets even though I know it's not listed, maybe that is part of the patchouli? I still smell the amber.
It's heady, yet close to the skin. Not spicy, I wish I smelled the cinnamon.
It's a mature fragrance.

Update:
I wore it on my clothes and it is sickly sweet on there. I'm going to try it again on my skin and see if i enjoy this still. It's a beautiful bottle and I'll keep it just for that. Maybe it'll smell better in colder months...
So interesting how the weather can affect perfume on the skin!!

this is my favorite of all, is just the perfume that I identified in my skin smells beautiful, sweet, romantic, wanna smell your wrist all the time, but you'll quickly cloying, lasts 6-8 hours, although I like last all day, I love it! To my only!!

This unique scent takes me places.
I'd rather buy perfumes like these which lifts my mood rather than worrying about whether it will give me a headache or not! :)

Soooo delicious!! Perfect cinnamon! Great in the winter, sexy, very very good!!

Soooo delicious!! Perfect cinnamon! Great in the winter, sexy, very very good!!

I tested the deodorant spray version. If you like perfumes with a strong cinnamon component and that are unisex, this might be for you.

Office safe: No too strong
Timing: fall and winter evenings
Cost: $17 for 50ml / 1.69 oz EPD or $9 for deodorant spray at Winners / TJ Maxx

Disclamer: my experience may be different from your experience based on my skin type, the season, and my personal tastes

Enlightened, beautiful and improved version of the modern Spellbound Estee Lauder, more fresh and sweet, very very light and close to the skin. I don't get any chocolate in it.
Just perfect for the office, for summer, or if you don't want be noticed by perfume. A bit pricey perfume for the weak silage and longevity, you get.

Já havia sentido, resolvi arriscar, dar crédito à ele e comprei. Confesso que no início gostei mas não ficou muito bom em minha pele,algo nele não me agrada e passou a ser enjoativo...O frasco é lindo mas deixou a desejar, questão de gosto mesmo!

wow, what a heavy sweet smell! so rich and warm! a little too foody for my taste but agreeable still.

This was the closest I ever came to a blind buy- I sprayed the tester and purchased. There was something familiar and nostalgic about the top notes, but it took a while for me to figure it out. Rose, some other flowers my nose can't identify, and Vetiver. This is Estée Lauder White Linen in a prettier bottle. Sadly, this combination is unwearable on me.

amazing perfume for a dynamic woman who wants to stand out! for me it's the woman version of joop! men. it's a strong perfume but for strange reason i doesn't bother you but you want to sniff it all the time.it's addictive!....
..... it's like when you drink a good wine and you start to feel dizzy but nice and you want to carry on drinking because you feel great and you smile all the time... that's femme de montblanc! thumbs up for montblanc and whoever created this amazing perfume!!!! bravo...

This was a blind buy. When I first sprayed it I thought I had made a horrible mistake as it smelled very sharp and a bit masculine. The drydown is lovely though, very soft. It reminds me of baby lotion. A clean, motherly sort of smell like fresh linen.

First few minutes it smells like Angel on me - very strong earthy patchouli ...but then after few minutes it changes to a sweet-spicy fragrance of pineapple , berries , flowers with hints of amber , cinnamon and musk.

It is a very unique, strong and complex fragrance. Lots of different notes that play beautifully on my skin within few hours.
The drydown is also very very nice- soft peach and berry on chocolate and musk base. It end with patchouli and vetiver.

Amazing and very interesting. One of its kind I would say .

Most of Montblanc women fragrances are powerful and this is no exception. Do not wait soft,linear scents from this house! Femme de Montblanc is a femme with guts!My first thought was,Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant with a chocolate-spice twist. On my skin chocolate,this would be dark chocolate 80% cocoa and patchouli dominate. Smooth and kind of sweet but still heavy drydown with semi-gourmand facet. Very good lasting power for an EDT.

A very soft vintage floral, but not heavy as vintage florals tend to be. I like the noticeable cinnamon and would say this is similar to Red Door, but much lighter.

Elegant yet sensual.
Luxurious yet soothing.
Intimate yet warm.
Feminine yet lively.

Love this one! Love the bottle! Love the perfume!

But is that surprising??
Its France's Mont Blanc after all !!!


Update:
more than 6 hours and still there. Inspite of the high humidity.
Highly recommend this one !!!

One could easily wear this perfume in a crowd and not offend anyone nearby. It's powdery at first, but quickly settles very close into the skin, much less powdery. The cardamom, cinnamon and cocoa, as well as the fruit notes and florals are blended so closely together as to be extremely light, gentle, totally unobtrusive. Overall, it's as if one just stepped out of a shower after using a rich, expertly blended, clean smelling, creamy, but very lightly scented soap. The perfume is not "soapy" at all. It smells fresh, tender, expensive in its understatement. It lasts a good 8 hours or more, quietly behaving like a well refined, well mannered aristocrat. It's great to wear any time. Simply beautiful.

Powdery and light at first, followed by warm cinnamon spice and cacao. Nothing like I would've expected from a purple juice in such a royal looking flanker.
Sad part, is as some have said.... the beauty of the scent does disappear within a matter of minutes on me and I am left with a soft faint sweet cinnamon.

The opening is nice. It then becomes a sort of.. grown up fragrance. Ages 30 and above.

its sweetness smells a little bit like Pi Givenchy cologne for men, not girly sweet, but licorice and cinnamon spicy sweet in oriental way. Quite unique~
definitely for sophisticated refined women instead of girl. a little bit too formal.

Oh my God, it's so chic perfume,I almost don't feel it, what means that this is mine! Very mysterious, not too sweet, great for evening!

On my skin, this perfume is too sweet. I like the top notes, but then it becomes heavy. I can still smell it after 5 hours.

Every woman should smell like this. Very sexy and romantic.

este es mi perfume favorito en este momento, queda perfecto en mi piel y dura lo normal para mi, 6-8 horas, este es UNICO , lo amoooo !!!!!

way to go mont blanc

I agree with miZZpuRRfect that this is an elegant, yummy gourmand scent. It's a lot softer than I was anticipating from the strong colour of the perfume and is very classy smelling, soft, warm, slightly powdery, a little sweet - really nice! I don't detect at all the masculine sense that several reviewers here have mentioned. On my skin it's feminine, warm and sexy all the way. I'm a lucky girl because I got my bottle in a swap with a lovely fellow Fragrantican and I'd never smelled it before so I'm sooo happy that it's such a nice perfume! I'd recommend it very highly and it definitely gets my approval!! ;o)))

UPDATE: I'm officially LOOOOVING this perfume!! Hooray - it's one of my new fave discoveries, along with Gucci Guilty. I love 'em both!! ;o))

Oh this does not go so well on my skin. it is to masculine and almost sour spicy . i cant feal anything sweet in this . just awfull.. this is most sertanly skin cemestry.
i had high hopes for this one , but its a no no for me .
It is more dry and spicy whit the vetiver , cardamom, i can not pick up any off the florals or fruits . so strange . the chocolate is also sadly not there on my skin.

my all time favorite was presence actually.. too bad cant find it anymore. shall try all mont blanc frangrances to perhaps find something of that sort.. presence is a matured scent that will attract much older guys comparing from my age grp.. my first v true love....

La classe!
Really addictive, smells like the atmosphere in a luxury jewellery shop...

Expensive lipstick! This smells just like fancy lipstick to me and I love it for that. The plum, musk and chocolate really make it almost an edible scent, velvety and smooth. Loving this one. It has that 'makeup' scent I love so much.

To me, this is Angel Light. This is what I had hoped Angel would smell like on me, but didn't. Femme de Mont Blanc is lightly sweet and spicy. The base notes, in particular the patchouli and amber, keep the scent warm, a bit "dirty," and also keep this from being too gourmand. The dominant notes to me are the fruit, chocolate and cardamom. Femme de Mont Blanc is both delicious and sensual. Floral notes hover in the background and help to maintain a certain lightness that makes this scent very versatile. It's very fresh, very soothing.

Warm cosy, Chopards Wish little sister.

I love it. If you are atrracted to Kenzo, Jungle Elephant and you find it hard to wear but you still try, I advise buying a sample of Femme... and trying it. The fragrance is something between Elephant and Tiger, but all in all it's unique and it isn't a copy of them.
I can smell cardamom and chocolate the most and it's a great combination. The fragrance is good to wear day and night, during all seasons. It's a calm and strong fragrance.

Overwhelmingly powdery and synthetically sweet with a strange slight spiciness...like a mass manufactured cinnamon roll dipped in plastic-y icing left to melt and then harden under a food court heat lamp.

Femme de Montblanc makes me mixed feelings. There is nothing intriguing about what would cause that I feel unique when you wear one... But I like this note of soap, which works for me relaxed. Unfortunately, the one is not moving at all times on my skin and basically smells the same: mix flowers and fruit with a predominance of pineapple seasoned with cardamom.
I think it everyday perfume for cooler days. Since I finished it, I think to buy another bottle.

It's fantastic! Opening reminded me about Christmas - citrus and spices. Ok, a little bit harsh at the first moment, but it soon dries down to spicy-fruity sweetness..very feminine, quite dark and heavy.
High heels, silk dress and candles in autumn twilight..

Very old-fashioned! I can't imagine anyone wearing it except for a 70 yeared old woman matching it with fake long red nails and tons of golden jewleries. I think that's what cinamon does to any perfume..

this one is a very gourmand scent, so delicious but not to 'headache sweet'! no kenzo jungle elephant similarity at all, maybe one ore two notes are similar but no the compositon.
elephant isn t a gourmand scent over all and i hate it. this one i love. i would compare it to wish from chopard but more elegant and mature.

I want to like this scent, in fact I do like it for the first few minutes, and then something develops that reminds me of the kind of hand lotion you find in a hospital. Maybe it's the heliotrope interacting with the cardamom or vetiver. The patchouli certainly keeps me sniffing my wrist, but the powdery "hospital" note unfortunately gives me a headache.

This perfume is just spectacular. Can't pick too many notes from it, it's a mix with personality of it's own.It definetly has some nutmeg-I smell some-, though I don't see it listed.

It has good sillage and staying power and it's very feminine yet versatile, not too floral, not too fruity, not too gourmand- a little bit of all, making this amazing perfume. Has big chances of becoming one of my top 3 favourites. Love it!

P.S.-I see no similarity between this and Kenzo Elephant. I really dislike Elephant, but I adore this one.

When Kama told me it was a lighter, creamier version of Jungle Elephant I did not know what to expect....but I was excited!

Well, it never reached the heady heights of the hype (how could it touch Elephant?! So controverial! So unique! So polarising!). However, the more I wear it the more I like it in its own right.

Imagine Elephant. Now turn the volume way, way down to create a daytime Elephant "lite". Then take away all but one clove, tame it, smooth it, soften it, give it sweet fruits, creamy amber, a masculine vertiver edge & then calm it all down with plenty of clean musk. This is Femme.

It is a seductive fruity scent - a wink & a smile! Wear it when you're feeling upbeat & flirty & want to stand out in a subtle way. This one will grow on you....

A lovely scent that disappeared way too fast. In less than 20 minutes it was gone. I saw that coming, it was too close to the skin, right from the start.

I don't know if this happened only to me, but it's a shame, 'cause I really liked the fragrance. A sweet, warm, elegant gourmand oriental, very very delicate right from the start... Beautiful, but incredibly elusive.

Lovely warm scent. Topnotes on me are kind of strongly sweet, but definitely get the pineapple and cinnamon. Haven't experienced the middle or base yet but expect much! Definitely sensual, for my more "friendly" days! If it turns masculine in the base, that's just fine, I LOVE masculin on my skin.

At first smell, its delightful cinnamon-vetiver-patchouli-chocolate fragrance :D

After a while, appears crispy notes of peach-litchi-jasmine....... The drydown its a caramelized amber :) so cute! and funny sexy in my opinion :D

Its very charming and feminine! I like it a lotttttttt :D

First of all - I bought Femme de M, relying on several reviews that mentioned a similarity with Kenzo Jungle. I tried to wear Jungle and it was the first perfume that I could not wear, it was so overwhelming - so I decided to give Femme de M a try.
If there is a similarity, I can only blame it on cinnamon - but the character of it is totally different then in Jungle. Jungle bites! - Femme de M pets with a velvet glove. It is strong - but more in a soapy kind of way, not in a "look at me" way.
I think there is lavender here, and it is a nice, rounded one.If you are looking for a sophisticated scent - it`s not for you, it is rather simple and sweet, very feminine and makes me think of a little Southern lady, a pretty woman with dimples on her cheeks, ready to laugh and share her pecan pie recipe with you. Polka dot dress and Femme de Montblanc - and you will be the living picture for this lovely perfume.

Now that I have been wearing this frag for two days I have finally found time to sit down and write a review. To begin with, this is a very sensual and feminine fragrance in an adorable diamond-shaped bottle. The opening is fruity but not fresh and juicy as one might expect - it is warm and creamy with the sweetness of the cinnamon and pineapple notes. The base notes are dark and sexy with the heliotrope standing out among the other notes. Then the drydown is just gorgeous - the chocolate notes are somehow similar to the chocolate in Tom Ford's Black Orchid though, as a whole, both frags are very different. Femme is smooth, silky and sensual and a great choice for colder weather.

Trvevil said it very well. I would like to add that it's sweet heliotrope-cinnamon-spices at first, not too fruity. Now my wrist holds the middle-to-base notes and I can still sense heliotrope and orange blossom, but patchouli+chocolate+vetiver are dragging it bit by bit into masculine territory. This change from the sweet feminine top all the way through the spicy masculine base is spectacular IMHO.

Sexy, romantic and quite elegant! On my skin it smells like a floral-oriental with a hint of incense, even if no incense is listed in notes. Lovely scent, it suits feminine types.

I like this one! At first it's very fruity, there's pineapple bergamot shadowed with cinnamon so it's not like fruity salad perfumes and then it goes into sweet floral phase, but still, I can smell cinnamon there. It's 'dark' kind of perfume, it's glowing and smooth. After some hour or two I noticed that.. it smells very similar to how Pepsi smells on me.. (damn, that typo of 'to') but not chemical or sharp, just inspired, soft and natural way. Further I can feel raspberry and still cinnamon. Later chocolate is there too. When I think of it I imagine violet silk dress and black haired woman, me for example. I noticed that there was edt too, because I tested the edp one. Agree on similarities with Kenzo Jungle, it has huge amount of cinnamon, but Mont Blanc has just the right amount of cinnamon that don't dominate only is present all way through. Lasting power seems ok, but within few hours it fades into close to skin kind perfume. At first sillage is ok though. Scent matches the bottle color and bottle is nice itself.

I have Femme de Montblanc from today...I like them a lot..it is like spicy cinnamon mixes with creamy vanilla... it reminds me softer version of Jungle Kenzo perfume, just that this one is more creamer and sweeter.

Warm, floral, feminine, delicate, sensual and elegant, not overpowering and long lasting. Great scent! ;)

It's a great oriental flower scent, it's not overpowering and it's kind of sweet on me!
Love the chocolate on this one!

I don't know how it could be nammed "Femme" , because I feel it turns into a bit musculin afer a while !!
