Montblanc Explorer Eau de Parfum

Product Information

It is official. After nine years, we finally have a designer fragrance based on the most popular fragrance(s) in the world. This Montblanc Explorer review is my fragrant journey during the last five months. I first sampled Montblanc Explorer when it was first released. As it immediately reminded me of Creed Aventus, one of our top 10 best men’s fragrances, I know that it would experience a lot of hype. Frustratingly, however, I didn’t get around to reviewing it until now! Well, each time I wear Explorer, it lasts from 20 to 24 hours. Period. Sillage is quite nice, and it always projects gentlemanly. Oh, boy. The Aventus fans will be right at home with Montblanc Explorer’s performance. I’m still wondering how so many people get below-average longevity with this perfume.

Montblanc wants to make its Explorer Eau de Parfum an ode to adventure. The fragrance evokes the window opened in a train wagon or a tent planted in the mountains. The German brand has thus drawn on its exotic and contrasting scents from all the continents: Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man – Armaf’s take on the popular DNA. More synthetic than Explorer, but much better in the complement department. CDNI is still a fragrance community affordable superstar. Finally, in terms of masculinity, it’s not mild by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s certainly not strong. I’d say this is a moderately masculine fragrance. It’s not overly verile or overbearing either. As you get to the heart, we have some vetiver, so we’re going to be a little bit more aromatic. You’ll notice some guaiacwood, which is reminiscent of pipe tobacco and woody muskiness.

Earlier, I mentioned that it was particularly popular in people in their thirties and younger. I think this is better suited to people in their early thirties, rather than their twenties, but could still easily be worn by somebody in their twenties if they wanted. Montblanc’s official statement: “From South Africa to Haiti, Italy, Germany or Indonesia; Montblanc EXPLORER invites explorers on a fantastic journey, giving them the opportunity to discover the rarest ingredients and manufacturing methods that combine craftsmanship with the latest technology.” Now, let’s get into visual stuff. Both box and the bottle are crafted so that they go with each other perfectly. I blame the pepper overdose for this. Yet, this shouldn’t bother you since the fragrance stays elegant and modern.

Jordi Fernandez is best known for 24 Gold, while Antoine Maisondieu has done Burberry’s London, but the most famous work is hands down Paco Rabanne’s 1 Million by Olivier Pescheux. Fragrance Theme Yet, I had to know how close it was. Straight up, I’m gonna be honest with you. The first time I spayed Explorer, a big smile appeared on my face. Why? Because it captures the magic of the two perfume giants. Due to its deceptive and airy nature, it’s not uncommon to get a feeling that the fragrance has disappeared. Same as with Aventus. S.P.A. Signature Factor is my passion project which I’m proudly sharing with Scent Grail readers for no charge. I love to read and learn about my passion and have seen various people and organizations trying to make charts, lists, formulas, apps, and so on.If a delivery attempt is made by Royal Mail and nobody is home to sign for the item, the driver will leave a card for you to arrange another delivery or collection from your local Royal Mail office. The bottle echoes the earth’s two hemispheres, recalling the multiple destinations explored during this olfactory expedition. At the bottom lies Montblanc’s emblem, the iconic star representing the six glaciers of the highest mountain in Europe. Montblanc snowcap emblem can be found on the bottom of the bottle, sprayer, the faux-leather wrapping, and on the top of the heavy metalliccap.

As the fragrance settles down, the freshness and pepperiness stay, now accompanied by the interplay between woodsy Patchouli and Ambroxans muskiness. Creed Aventus – the original creation of this scent profile and the most popular niche fragrance of all time. If you want the real deal, go with Aventus. At the head, you will likely experience some fruitiness. However, it’s bergamot as opposed to pineapple. I did get a whiff of that tropical fruitiness right at the beginning, but it faded as soon as it was noticed. Any reminiscence to Creed Aventus is now completely gone and the exploration ends with a woody trail. This is the most lasting phase and the one which will garner you the most compliments. Hopefully, you have enjoyed this massive Montblanc Explorer review as much as I did writing it. The fragrance is affordable and crowd-pleasing.Since it had enough time now to get even more popular with the general public, I predict that Montblanc is expecting another best-selling year. Montblanc Explorer is available as a 30ml, 60ml, and 100ml Eau de Parfum fragrance. The fragrance is accompanied by other additional beauty products such as:
