Can’t go wrong with this
Explorer is a highly versatile, crowd-pleasing scent that punches well above its price tag.
From the first spray, you’re greeted with a fresh burst of bergamot and a hint of spicy pink pepper, which gradually gives way to a rich heart of vetiver and leather. The dry-down leans into ambroxan and patchouli, delivering a modern, slightly woody base that lasts all day on my skin.
Yes, the DNA is inspired by Creed Aventus. But Explorer holds its own. It’s smoother, less fruity, and more grounded, which I prefer for daily wear. This is a fragrance I reach for year-round, whether I’m heading to the office or out for dinner or even to the gym.
If you’re looking for something safe yet refined, familiar yet still well-crafted, Explorer delivers. It’s not niche, but it doesn’t need to be. Just solid, reliable rough masculine elegance in a bottle.

Inoffensive Creamy fresh Greatness
This is the perfect office and leisure scent. It smells fresh and clean with a creamy tonka dry down. Opens with beautiful fruity citrus notes. It still smells modern but already has a classic touch.
There are some good alternatives available. But for me AHS just has the best quality (it should with its Chanel price tag). There are no screechy synthetic undertones, that are prevalent in some other fragrances in this style.
It isn’t loud. Wear it in every situation when you just want to smell good. I can’t imagine anyone getting bothered by the scent.
For me Allure Homme Sport isn’t just a fragrance it’s a feeling of sleek motion captured in scent: the poise of an athlete, the elegance of a tailored suit in motion, the confidence of someone who doesn’t need to speak loudly to command attention.

Safe summer scent
Missoni Wave is an okay fragrance overall, but nothing special. It goes in the same fresh, blue direction as Versace Pour Homme and AHS, but in comparison, i clearly prefer those two.
What holds Wave back for me is a noticeable synthetic note that runs through the scent, especially in the drydown. It lacks the smoothness and refinement that make Pour Homme and AHS so enjoyable.
The performance is alright for this type of scent. Safe daily driver for the office. It is clean and fresh. It doesn’t offend anyone. It does not fill the room but within arms reach people will notice that you smell good.
Not a bad fragrance by any means, just not one I’d reach for or repurchase.
