Inspired by Montale Arabians Tonka
Arabians Tonka
Extrait de Parfum · 100ml · 30% Concentration · Sydney, Australia
Arabians Tonka is Montale's gourmand oud, a fragrance that takes the house's signature Middle Eastern intensity and softens it with something genuinely sweet. The result is rich, opulent and completely unforgettable.
Saffron and bergamot open with a warm, spiced brightness that announces something significant. Oud and Bulgarian rose at the heart build the deep, resinous complexity Montale is known for, dark and luxurious without being overwhelming. Tonka bean, sugar cane, amber, white musk and oakmoss in the base settle into a rich, almost dessert-like sweetness that is the defining signature of this fragrance. At 30% concentration this is Arabians Tonka at its most indulgent.

Performance
Formulated at 30% concentration, Extrait de Parfum, the highest category in fine fragrance. Expect 11 to 15 hours of wear with a rich, evolving sillage that opens boldly and settles into a deeply personal skin scent over time. One or two sprays is all that is required.
How to Apply
Apply to pulse points, the inner wrists, base of the neck, and behind the ears. Do not rub. Allow the fragrance to dry naturally and interact with your skin's warmth. For best performance, apply to freshly moisturised skin or over an unscented body lotion. Dry skin absorbs fragrance faster. Oily skin holds it longer. At 30% concentration, one or two sprays is enough.
Care and Storage
Store upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. UV exposure and temperature fluctuation degrade aromachemicals over time. A drawer, cabinet, or wardrobe shelf is ideal. Avoid bathrooms. Kept correctly, your fragrance will perform at full strength for 3 to 5 years.
Formulation
Every formula is built from individual aromachemicals using GCMS reconstruction, the same methodology used by the world's leading fragrance houses. We source exclusively from IFF, Givaudan, and Firmenich, the same suppliers used by Dior, Chanel, and Tom Ford. Never a pre-made type oil. Never a shortcut.
Maceration
Perfume is not finished when it is bottled. The materials keep marrying, the alcohol edge drops away and the base knits together, and the fragrance genuinely changes while that happens. That resting period is called maceration.
Every bottle we send carries a Ready From date on it. That is ten days after the day yours was made, and it is the point we are happy for you to wear it. Treat it as a floor rather than a target. Perfume keeps improving well past that date, so the longer you leave it, the better it gets.
