There’s nothing all that new with the eau de parfum, to make it a must have versus the original. The EDP is closer to A&F Fierce or Egoiste Platinum, than is the EDT, but isn’t as good as either of those fragrances. Again, I’m not even much of a fan of Legend, but it at least has some more personality. If you liked the original, you’ll probably like the eau de parfum, even if you don’t necessarily need a bottle for yourself.īetween these two? I’d rather wear the EDT. Honestly, the fragrance strikes me as just fine. The performance is solid, just not incredible. That would have given it more distinction and a bit more personality than it has. I wish the leather was given more of a role versus the violet leaf. The opening act isn’t all that great, but the dry down gets better for me. Less of the top fruity notes, upping the violet leaf, and a leather/woody base coming through. Legend EDP is a similar take on the original, but with some slight differences. The leather isn’t that intense and the violet leaf works pretty much year round. The violet leaf and leather doesn’t really change when it can be worn compared to the EDT version. It is attractive enough for dates, can go out for an evening, but doesn’t have that massive club beast persona. It can be worn year round and fits in, within all environments. Mont Blanc Legend is a very versatile scent and that’s definitely one of its strengths. Neither one is going to give a marathon type of wear, but the EDP has the clear edge here. During testing, I’ve gotten between 6.5-8 hours of wear from the EDP version. Legend EDT gives me 5-6 hours of solid wear. Maybe EDP goes a little longer with its strength, but that’s about it. The sillage is about the same at its peak. I know EDP has the higher concentration, but it doesn’t feel any stronger when I compare it to the original. The EDP just sits there as a giant dose of violet leaf on my skin, with some additional notes lurking around, but not really standing out. Which is better? I’m not a huge fan of the original Legend, but I like the opening act more so than the EDP. There’s really not much going on here, it feels pretty flat. It’s fresh and somewhat green, with what I’m guessing is their synthetic oakmoss substitute. Legend eau de parfum starts off with a pretty strong violet leaf note, some bergamot, and leather. It also has a dry underlying aroma from the base, that will become more prominent later on. It is clean, but doesn’t have the same type of sharpness, as it is calmed by lavender and tonka bean. ![]() Legend opens with a blend of pineapple, bergamot, and apple.
