Montblanc Explorer Eau de Parfum

I had this a couple years ago and loved it then decided to try some others. Had a few fragrances from Jo Malone which were nice and smelled similar but twice the price. After finishing the last bottle of JM I went back to this and now I won’t be trying anything else. The smell is fresh and lasts all day, not to mention it’s in a cool, quality bottle.

THE FRAGRANCE OF THIS MONT BLANC PRODUCT IS EXQUISITE. FROM THE TIMEI DETECTED THE SCENT I JUST HAD TO ORDERIT.EXCELLENT BRAND, TOP QUALITY AS THEFRAGRANCE LINGERS FROM MORNING TO EVENING. PERFECT !! 🤩

Why did you choose this product over others?:Amazing!

Smells beautiful and lasts all day.

I love the Montblanc brand but have always found their fragrances underwhelming and poor performing. Generally every single drag I had from them disappeared from skin after 30 minutes. This one however, is a different story. While not the best performing perfume ever, the longevity and sillage are adequate. Id say it lasts around 4-6 hours with a medium sillage and then it fades away slowly. I could still smell it on my collar in the evening, but to be honest next time I will re-apply sometime in the afternoon to top it up. The scent is pleasant, not overly original or memorable, but definitely has some subtle class to it. It’s not as loud and youthful as YSL Y and being a little more refined is more suited for a man than a boy. I know that others have compared it to Aventus by Creed, and yes it’s very similar. Upon first spray it’s difficult to tell them apart, the differences start appearing after the top notes start fading away, Aventus is a little more fruity while this is leaning more towards the synthetics. Having said that, I firmly believe that overall it’s a much better buy than Aventus. Neither fragrance is very outstanding, both have the same familiar feeling - they remind you of something you might have smelled before. But, what Montblanc did right is being realistic. It’s an okay scent for an okay price. Contrary to Creed, where they try to sell you a bottle of okay-smelling perfume for £250. Save yourself some money and get the Montblanc version. But make sure you tell your friends and coworkers it’s Montblanc, let them know that Creed is overrated. Overall a good value scent I just wish it lasted a little longer.

Both my sons lived this last Christmas good value for such a good product

I have predominantly used 3 Aftershaves for some years, Prada, 1881 and Obsession and they are true after shaves not toilet water. They are quite expensive and I decided to try a couple of more reasonably priced well known brands at the end of 2020 and both were very weak and the 'scent' disappeared within 10 minutes. I decided to give this a try based on the price, the good feedback left and I was also taken in by the packaging!!(one of my weaknesses playing to the packaging people). In fact I was not disappointed, far from it. This is a brilliant product and is a true aftershave which smells superb and the scent lasts not just for minutes but hours. It falls perhaps more on the feminine side so not butch - but I and my female friends think it is great so good enough for me. I will definitely be buying this excellent aftershave again. UPDATE........Dec 2021...............I have finished my first purchase of this and all above stands but having finished it and bought another I would like to ad some additional information, not really negative but I think relevant.The tube that draws the fluid from the base is excellent in that it extends fully to the bottom and scavenges every last bit of aftershave - a great point. Having emptied the bottle I was much more aware of its weight. Although it is brilliant packaging it does gives a false impression of what you have left and due to the VERY heavy thickness of the bottle and the black wrapper it is very difficult to judge the contents until it is nearly finished. A point of interest is that the full bottle when new weighs (exactly) 440 gms. Having weighed it (accurately) when completely empty it comes in at 345 grams. So the contents on that sum weigh 95 gms. 1 millilitre of fluid weighs 1 gram so on that basis (not scientifically measured) the contents are around 95 ml. This means the bottle weight represents 78% of the gross weight when full.

I like it,really nice scentThank you!
