The “Montana” brand is the French design house founded by the late fashion designer Claude Montana. The perfume line is now managed by the separate entity Parfums Montana Paris.

Company Background

Founder:
The company was founded by Claude Montana, a prominent French couturier known for his avant-garde approach to fashion in the 1980s, which featured exaggerated, geometric silhouettes. He launched his haute couture house in 1979.

Headquarters:
The perfume operations are based in France.

Focus:
While the original brand encompassed haute couture, the current “Montana” entity in the context of your product focuses specifically on developing and distributing a range of distinctive fragrances.

This was the brand’s first and most famous fragrance, launched in 1986. It is considered a classic of 1980s perfumery.

Style:
The fragrance line is known for its unconventional approach and ability to evoke intense emotions through unique notes and chords.

Olfactory Profile:
Parfum de Peau is primarily a leather fragrance for women, a bold and sensual scent that was intended to “envelop the body like an olfactory tattoo”. The original creator was Jean Guichard, later reformulated by Edouard Fléchier.

Aesthetics:
The product design, including the distinctive, award-winning spiral-shaped bottle for Parfum de Peau, reflects Claude Montana’s design philosophy, inspired by the curves of a woman’s body in motion.
