There is absolutely nothing to like about this scent and it seems like it was launched without a clear mission in mind and why was also Natalie Lorson (Bentley Intense for Men, Lalique Encre Noir Extreme and Gentleman Givenchy Réserve Privée) needed for this? Why bring this brand to insignificance with perfumes nobody want and making them more expensive with each launch? Montblanc, if you read this .. you must get your thoughts together, the market is flooded enough with uninspired creations like The Phantom - Paco Rabanne, K from D&G or Y from YSL. We know you have the money and the talent to come with awesome products like The Individuel, Signature or Explorer! Like many of you, I like when a perfume house offers value for money and for many years I was under the impression that Montblanc, licensed by Inter Parfums (Sisley, Ferragamo, Van Cleef & My Origines, etc) should have mindful investments. It starts with a strong stale smell of clary sage (similar cold mettalic one like in the H24) and nothing much else, the violet petrol like smell is very weak and some synthetic cedarwood is also barely there. And it develops into a dry sweaty gym bag after a few minutes, I had to use vegetable oil and soap and scrub this from my skin like my life depended on it.

When I saw the bottle design and the IFF Perfumer Bruno Jovanovic (Rose Incense, Bad Boy Le Parfum and Fierce from A&F) behind this creation, I had high hopes and was so curious to try it.
