Explorer Montblanc 2019

A very easy wearing fragrance. The citrus off the top is almost bitter, which gives way to to a creamy synthetic leathery base. There's a bit of smokiness in this too as it dries down. Performance is ok though falls short of a full work day wearing.
I really don't get the comparison to Aventus other than the fact it's a citrus over woods composition. I'd say this is more akin to a muted and less fruity Cedrat Boise.
Not my favourite, but evidently a lot of others favourite as this is one of my most complimented fragrances in my collection.
