Oh wow! I wish mine would arrive. I requested a sample about a month back and haven't heard anything.

Please please Montale let me have those 10ml samples soon!

This IS good news! I've been trying for months, literally, to figure out how to navigate in their web site. How did you do it? 10ml Montale samples? WOW!

Woh... were those free? If so, that would be amazing. It's rare to get free samples that are 10ml and come in nice packaging. That would be awesome!

If I may ask - did you use the info@parfums-montale.com email address? And how long was it between emailing and getting the samples?

What you have received sounds almost miraculous!

I emailed them exactly one month ago.

<keeps fingers crossed>
