In 1906, Montblanc was founded by Alfred Nehemias and August Eberstein. Initially, Alfred and August had careers working as a banker and engineer. The two started by making and selling pens. This grew into other luxurious items.
Today, the German company offers a variety of luxurious items such as jewelry, watches, and fragrances. In 2011, they launched a fragrance called Legend. Below is a Montblanc Legend Cologne Review that I have done.
I have used my personal experience with the product to give you my view of it. Also, I have used online reviews to give a more in-depth understanding of the fragrance.

The brain behind this fragrance is Olivier Pescheux. He is a popular perfumer and is responsible for many awesome scents like Azzaro’sJetLag. The packaging of this product is very masculine. The box is black with silver waves on the top. The wording is also written in silver.
The bottle is beautiful and is reminiscent of a gentle man’s drinking flask. The neck and top are made from silverfish metal. The atomizer is good a releases a healthy mist of perfume when sprayed.
In general, the presentation is dark and mysterious. This is perfect for a masculine fragrance.

So how does it smell?
I personally love this fragrance for its simple yet unique scent. The top notes offer a subtle yet noticeable citrus smell. This scent only intensifies at the heart note when the floral and fruity notes appear.
Also, it provides the perfect transition from the citrusy top notes. The base note is the source of all the mystery and masculinity of the fragrance. It gives the whole fragrance a rich and sophisticated foundation.
