Ramon Monegal Fragrances : Perfume Reviews
Ramón Monegal is both the name of a perfumer and a perfume house. Monegal is a Spaniard with a strong background in perfumery. His lineage is the House of Myrurgia, a preeminent Spanish house based in Barcelona—the family business—with which Monegal was associated until he decided to embark upon his own projects. The perfume house has just entered the market in a big way with the release of 14 perfumes!
The most striking thing about the line overall is the stages of development each fragrance goes through. This came as a surprise to me, since many modern fragrances come at you in a rush of notes. With the Monegal line, what you smell at first may be dramatically different from the various stages of the fragrance.
