I saw originally you weren't to happy with this fragrance. Glad you warmed up to it. It is actually very good in its own right like you say and my wife goes crazy for this stuff and that's out of over 50 fragrances!

@ChadSecrets Месяц назад

Yeah, whenever i go in depth with a fragrance for review, i usually start to appreciate it for what it is. It's a pretty good fragrance!

@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro Месяц назад

Hello, Chad! How are you? Another great review! Thanks for kindly sharing! Cheers from Brazil!

Went to the fragrance store to try it on skin just after you posted this. It’s been 10 hours since I put less than a half spray on my hand, and I still get whifs of it. It is, indeed, “aventusy”, but to my nose veeery different from all those clones I had an opportunity to try (and was not a fan of). Like it a lot, might get a bottle at some point. P. S. I also tried Brioni EDP (loved that one), and find them pretty complementing, very nice.

@gregory3227 Месяц назад

Nice! I think I commented on this before about liking it for what it is rather than being an aventus clone. Glad you warmed up to it a bit! I’m starting to think it’s closer to aventus cologne than the original

@ChadSecrets Месяц назад

Thank you! I can agree with that it may be closer to the cologne. I need to put them side by side now to see

@stuffstuff6910 Месяц назад

You can get a 200ml bottle of this for around £60 in the UK, which makes it really good value for money imo.

@ChadSecrets Месяц назад

That is a pretty good price yeah! Great value

@ramoneregal8317 Месяц назад

Yep I'm from the U.K and can confirm I have bought the 200ml.I bought 100mls twice before imo despite owing various niche scents, I think this had one of the best bergamont openings.Its objectively one of the best you can get as a freshie at that price point.

I have MB Explorer and Aventus Cologne. AC does have a little bit more going on. But when you put them side by side it’s hard to justify spending 4-5 the price of MB Explorer. Let your nose and bank account be the judge.

@Tripokaridos22 Месяц назад

I need Help from any kind person that can.. I Love the Opening of Montblanc Explorer so much but not the dry down. Is there any other Perfume that has this Opening and continue like that to dry down or even dry down to something smoother ?

@ChadSecrets Месяц назад

You would have to start looking at some of the clones for that. Also what do you not like about the dry down? That can help narrow this down

@Tripokaridos22 Месяц назад

@@ChadSecrets I have tried most of clones like CDNI and Armaf Intense. All of them are harsh on dry down and honestly explorer was the smoothest. What I am looking for is a dry down like Givree, or Prada home or Prada Luna Rosa og or Imagination etch etch something aromatic and smooth. Can u tell me if.there is any perfume that dry down smells.like the opening of Explorer?

@minigouda2024 Месяц назад

Hey. I have Gutteridge Dal 1878 in my collection. It is a much lighter take (it is not a dupe) on Explorer or Aventus, but slightly with a more classic touch. Mild performance, no beast mode. Good quality. From Italy.😉 I also own Explorer. It's not bad, but I do not use a lot.

@ChadSecrets Месяц назад

That sounds quite nice. I will look into that one because i have not yet heard of it. Thank you for letting me know!

I'm with you, I think its fine on its own. I have Explorer and don't feel the need to pick up Aventus or any of the other clones. I think it's great, and I believe I bought my 100 ml for about $40 USD which is great for me!

@@ChadSecrets I appreciate it, but will you feel the same when I say my 2nd empty is going to be cdnim edt in all it's lemony glory? Joking aside, here's an interesting observation... I have a decant of aventus and a hundo ml and, either both F or E and F respectively, neither has any smokiness, so to me, Explorer is in the dupe category more than inspired by or twist. I heard someone say it was like "modern Aventus" and I can jive with that. But if my first sniff was anything like the smoky clones, I'd say inspired by more than clone, and also I'd be salty at the changes in the scent over the years lol.
