It's just that DNA. I know it. Even though I may never have owned it myself, I've smelled it many times and I like it. I want it!

Mont Blanc Explorer has them!
At least a taste of it. And that's my problem!

Imagine it's a hot summer day and you're sitting in a restaurant in front of a really great pizza, with garlic of course. Then it comes, the thirst, the demand and the desire for an ice cold drink. Waiter, a coke please. And it comes. The best drink you've ever had, you think. But then comes the hitch: It's only 0.2 litres. Three sips and the bottle is empty.

What remains is the desire for more.

And exactly that describes Explorer for me best.

My daughter has a huge fun during my perfumery forays to spray different scents on paper strips and hold in front of my nose. And she did just that with Explorer. I actually never had the fragrance on the screen and smelled completely unprejudiced on the strip.
--> Boom!
That's exactly it, this great DNA, which I'm looking for! Blind purchase!

At home the next day the first real test:

Applied and purely in the fresh opener, which evaporates after a few minutes and reveals exactly what I expect: the scent of the big brother, whose name we do not have to name.
I keep smelling the back of my hand, delighted. But also longing for more.... For a higher dose. And this feeling remains. There remains a permanent desire for a more intense experience of what Mont Blanc Explorer promises me.

After +- 3 hours it is over. I myself no longer smell it on my skin. The clothes stores him a little longer, but for an EDP mmn. too little.
Too bad. The Explorer could have experienced great adventures with me. Even to the signature... But for me, unfortunately, he is too little of everything. Great fragrance, terrific bottle, priced fairly, lousy sillage and meise durability.

Is that all bad?
Not necessarily.

Explorer is a terrific gym fragrance. Who wants to smell just spontaneously for a limited time good, but not too intrusive, is best served here. Just to the meeting and in the evening maybe want another fragrance? Explorer!
Just for someone who wants this special DNA, but in a measured way.

Who wants more like me, which reaches for Club de nuit intense EDT. The is namely exactly what I would have wanted from the Explorer.
