Fantastic Oud is a divisive fragrance that appeals primarily as a beginner-friendly, affordable oud option with a soft sandalwood dry-down. However, its notably weak performance and lack of complexity compared to other Montale offerings limit its appeal to more experienced fragrance enthusiasts.

The r/fragrance community is divided on Honey Aoud. While enthusiasts praise its longevity, warmth, and spiced character, detractors find the honey note underwhelming and the fragrance too oud-heavy and spicy for a honey-focused scent. The consensus is that sampling before blind buying is strongly recommended due to its polarizing nature and intense projection.
