There is no color more intense than red. Visually striking and always captivating, that exudes confidence, resilience, and strength. Bold and eye-catching, red is also part of Montblanc’s heritage, appearing in the design of the “Rouge et Noir” fountain pen, one of Montblanc’s earliest writing innovations in 1906. Endless source of inspiration, it has since become a signature Montblanc color carried down through the years, across collections from writing instruments to leather goods, and now fragrance with the introduction of Montblanc Legend Red.    

Legends are great stories, penned in ink on paper for posterity, for inspiration. Just like the story of Montblanc. A pioneering and visionary Maison rewrote the rules of writing culture and craftsmanship, achieving legendary status by delivering exciting innovations and classic designs of writing instruments. Ingenuity, imagination and determination are the qualities upon which the brand was built. 10 years ago Montblanc channeled this sense of purpose, confidence and conviction into a distinctive, masculine fragrance. Now, the Montblanc Legend fragrance returns in a new iteration, bolder and more determined than ever with the Montblanc Legend Red.

Red symbolizes so many diverging emotions and traits. It’s this ambiguity that makes the color so fascinating, and the inspiration for a fragrance that captures all its complexity and masculine intensity. The red sensation starts with the juicy freshness of Blood Orange and zesty Grapefruit blended with the spicy contrast of Cardamom.  The encounter between Clary Sage, Cedarwood and Juniper Berry dresses the citrussy freshness with aromatic facets, while the magnetic combination of Mahogany, Atlas Cedarwood and a touch of Tonka Bean add a creamy sensuality to Legend Red.

A charismatic woody fragrance, fresh yet intense, bold yet sensitive, the olfactory experience evokes the thrill of speed and makes the heart beat a little faster.

British model Simon Clark, the face of Montblanc Legend for a decade and photographed in black and white by Peter Lindbergh, reinforces the staying power and timeless quality of Montblanc Legend. Masculine, serene and elegant, Simon ushers in the next chapter of Montblanc Legend with authenticity and confidence.
