A friend of mine in Italy has been working on this for some time now and is about to launch. Can't wait to try this because knowing him, it will be good!! May not be able to get this one in the US until the Cuban embargo is lifted, but it'll be worth the wait.
Here are the scent profile and launch info for those able to attend;
"Dear Rick, thank you very much!
I appreciate your help man!!!
This is the first of the 3 fragrances we will launch of Montecristo, it's a woody/woody-oriental fragance:
Woody Vetiver Tonka
T: Bergamot, Grapefruit & Pink Pepper
M: Black Pepper, Elemi & Geranium
B: Cedarwood, Vetiver, Patchouli & Tonka Bean
"A woody spicy creation blending masculine and energising notes. The fragrance opens with uplifting and juicy mix between Bergamot and Grapefruit together with sparkling Pink Pepper. The heart is a blend of reviving Black Pepper, Elemi and Geranium. Dry notes of Cedarwood, a touch of Vetiver combined with an accord of Patchouli and Tonka Bean close the composition."
We will have the first launch at the Habanos Festival in the beginning of March. A small launch at the Esxence fair in Milan in the end of the very same month and then I HOPE we will go "live" sometimes around mid April. "
This gentleman and I met each other through our work in the cigar/tobacco industry. He of course has moved on to something else near and dear to my heart, fragrance!! I wish him all the best. They have a FB page so you can follow them there for updates on launches, etc
