The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Montabaco Rio by Ormonde Jayne, launched in 2024, is a chypre fruity fragrance that balances vibrant fruitiness with warm musky and woody notes. The composition opens with the bright freshness of pineapple and rhubarb, paired with bergamot for an invigorating start. This gives way to caramel and cardamom, adding a sweet spiciness before settling into rich tones of ambroxan, cashmere wood, suede, and tobacco leaf. The base notes of tonka, moss, sandalwood, and vanilla create a warm, enveloping finish that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply Montabaco Rio in thin layers to allow the fragrance to develop gradually. The bright fruit notes fade quickly, but the warm musk and woody base will last throughout the day. Best suited for evenings or cooler weather when you want a rich, comforting scent.
