I bought this scent today as well, its about 80% aventus imo. Not knocking mont blanc for copying aventus, they are just repaying the favor for creed copying individuel.
People in fragcom are tired of Aventus clones but how many of them can be found at Macy’s? Are there any? This is not for the enthusiast. Maybe this was made for people who don’t even know Aventus exists. Something to consider...
That is a VERY EXCELLENT point. Especially the fact that most clones to the average consumer are either only available online (like Club de Nuit Intense or L'Aventure), or either they are from houses the average consumer will bypass. Mont Blanc is well known to the average guy
Agreed, we as fragheads are probably tired of the gazillion Aventus clones, but the vast majority of people I know don't even know what Aventus is let alone its clones lol
Beef Broth it makes no difference to me really. I don’t care about clones, wear Aventus occasionally, and very rarely smell it on others. Just find it odd when reviewers go on and on about it and the clones then complain about another one.
There is nothing at Macy's resembling Aventus, but the fact is, people outside of fragcomm not only don't know that Aventus is special to those in this hobby, but more importantly, they simply don't find Aventus special when they do end up sniffing it. The very first three non-frag-heads I had sniff Aventus either weren't impressed (2) and the other (a female) outright hated it. Let's be real: it smells like soggy cardboard.
It smells EXACTLY like my creed. I put each on both my hands. I can’t tell the difference. It has super good projection and longevity and almost better than my Creed.
Great fragrance video and keep up the great work. I purchased this fragrance mont Blanc Explorer and it smell like creed aventus. I got $60 -30ml bottle .
The only issue with waiting until frags hit discounters, is that they have typically been reformulated by then. Almost HAVE to grab it when it comes out.
My first impressions - Terre D'ermes meets Cedrat Boise. I am glad you feel the same (Mancera vibe). I think it is the most "natural"smelling and good looking bottle from MB. Thanks for your review.
I've been using Mont Blanc for awhile from Legend to intense to individuel and I'm glad they came out with Explorer. I bought it and I'm happy with it and gotten compliments with it, Adventus clone or not.
I just picked this up today at Macy's and I have never smelled Aventus let ( coming Monday) so i give it props because since i don't know Adventus let it's not a clone to me :o) also i have not smelled any of the Aventus clones on the market, fyi ... yet!
Lyndon Earlington I bought it 2 days back. The performance here at my place at 38 degree Celsius is average around 4- 5 hrs. ( My personal experience under extreme weather) I love the scent
Thanks for the review I'm go get it today, epic bro I've smelled Aventus and love the smell but don't ever wanna spend too much cash on a cologne but will give this a try most def.
I thought I was the only one that hates Savauge. Hated it from the start. Not cause of the hype. Ambroxin piss water. Makes me nauseous. I’m a Farenheight fan too of that means anything.
I bought 100ml Mont Blanc Explorer and it is nice scent but not on my top 10 list. I can see similar smell to Creed Aventus but only in 70%. Dollars & Scents great video. Good luck
Thanks for the heads up on this scent, sounds very "todays' type of scent where you are creating for the masses and not necessarily being unique or extraordinary.
Good job,man!I love Montblanc house.Just got me a gift set of MB Emblem Intense for 34$ at Burlington.And now patiently waiting till Explorer hits discounters around 30$.
Might be a while, if they know this is going to be a "hyped" clone, they won't sell it for less than 50-60 for at least a year or 2, as they did for Dylan Blue, it's decent, but was usually priced higher than most Versace fragrances were in the 30-40 range, but because people kept saying it will be a good discount scent, it wasn't on the kind of discounts as its brothers were usually priced.
@@Mysteryboy0007 cdnim had been "reformulated" so people advise not to buy anymore, and there aren't many Zara stores that people can pick up their fragrances from. They're overpriced online too because people know if they're buying online, they can't buy in store, and they price it way over retail. Having a mainstream clone will make it more accessible for most people.
At this point it's Pineapple Vintage or bust (choose your favourite option). Mine is PV Intense for sheer high quality and value and Emperor Extrait for sheer homage to when Aventus was GREAT in 2013
C'mon man!? That's like saying you're sick of Federer winning. If you're a badass, gotta enjoy the spoils. Anyways true frag-heads have multiple smells in their collection. I'm sure you posess others to use instead.
@@TonyMontana-zghfde I will definitely not take Aventus that seriously, its bloody awful stuff and I hate it but killing myself over mehh I dont think so it will go away eventually 🤔 I hope.
I appreciate the video. Mont Blanc Explorer is a pass for me. I have Aventus decants and a clone (Parfums Vintage - Pineapple Vintage Vanilla Intense). I'm all set regarding Aventus for the near future.
Is that your opinion? Wauw, such a cliché review that is cloned from other reviewers... Hate drama queens too 😉 like you by the way... I do not feel it is a clone of aventus, which is so overhyped Explorer is performing extremely well and is more powdery and fresher than the dull aventus
Are you okay m8? Why are you so enraged lol. It definitely smells like Aventus but no pineapple and more ambroxan (Like Dior Sauvage). I like it better than Aventus, more masculine and mass appealing, but I'll wait for it to hit discounters.
I bought this scent today as well, its about 80% aventus imo. Not knocking mont blanc for copying aventus, they are just repaying the favor for creed copying individuel.
Yeah it’s a good scent. It’s definitely not as harsh as some other similar scents out there. Thanks for watching!
How is the performance sillage and longevity
Behaviour Animalistic i get a good 6 hours of it from what I can smell. But that Ambroxan is anosmic to my nose though so it’s hard to gauge.
@@dachucktaylor1 does it project. Like can others smell it
Hahha you nailed it 👍👍👍
I love this one

This cologne smells amazing 😻

Good stuff I smelled this yesterday. Yesterday the opening really close to Aventus
Great fragrance video and keep up the great work. I purchased this fragrance mont Blanc Explorer and it smell like creed aventus. I got $60 -30ml bottle .

The presentation on this one is really top notch.
I do really like this one. A very easy to wear fragrance.
Savauge + Creed = 👍🎉👌
Thanks for watching!
Since Aventus is mainstream now, i sold my Flakon and bought this one as Substitude.
Tried it this past weekend. It smells great ! Lasted a good 9 to 10 hours on me !
My first impressions - Terre D'ermes meets Cedrat Boise. I am glad you feel the same (Mancera vibe). I think it is the most "natural"smelling and good looking bottle from MB. Thanks for your review.
I agree with you 110%, it is an Creed Av killer!
I think creed is coming out with a reformulated slightly less expensive version.
I've been using Mont Blanc for awhile from Legend to intense to individuel and I'm glad they came out with Explorer. I bought it and I'm happy with it and gotten compliments with it, Adventus clone or not.
How's individual, what does it remind you of?
Whats an Aventus??
Nice unboxing bro!!👍
Thanks for watching buddy!
I have this it last 2 days on my shirt and 6-7 hrs on my wrist.
Makes me think of Zara Vibrant Leather EDP
How would you compare X Batch vs. X Batch intense? Have a preference?
I just picked this up today at Macy's and I have never smelled Aventus let ( coming Monday) so i give it props because since i don't know Adventus let it's not a clone to me :o) also i have not smelled any of the Aventus clones on the market, fyi ... yet!
If i don't have the money for aventus and i don't get cdni is this a good buy?
Spicy green nice scent. How is performance?
Lyndon Earlington I bought it 2 days back. The performance here at my place at 38 degree Celsius is average around 4- 5 hrs. ( My personal experience under extreme weather) I love the scent
To me performance not that great.
Explorer will take over
Thanks for the review I'm go get it today, epic bro I've smelled Aventus and love the smell but don't ever wanna spend too much cash on a cologne but will give this a try most def.
Great stuff! Can't get enough of that bottle though. Always thought that Icon Elite could use a sport model. My kinda jam.
nice review man! keep up the good work! greetings from austria
I'm so tired of Aventus (as I am of Dior Savuage).
I'm with you. My nose needs at least a year (perhaps two) break from Aventus and Sauvage and their clones.
So true... Aventus is so overhyped
Sauvage... I really do not get that... It is almost damp smelling bha
Funny because I’m tired of these types of comments.
I thought I was the only one that hates Savauge. Hated it from the start. Not cause of the hype. Ambroxin piss water. Makes me nauseous. I’m a Farenheight fan too of that means anything.
I'm enjoying your reviews. Subscribed bro
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try it have a blessed night
Great review mate, seeing a lot of reviews on this one. Nice presentation - Nik
Yeah the presentation is great! Thanks for watching!
Nice review. Thank you.
I bought 100ml Mont Blanc Explorer and it is nice scent but not on my top 10 list. I can see similar smell to Creed Aventus but only in 70%. Dollars & Scents great video. Good luck
Thx for the review Im glad its not a AV Clone... Ill go grab mine from TJ Maxx for 49. 100ml bottle
Thanks for the heads up on this scent, sounds very "todays' type of scent where you are creating for the masses and not necessarily being unique or extraordinary.
It’s 1/4 the price of aventus so who cares if it smells similar. It’s a good buy for me
I agree! Thanks for watching!
Great video. I will wait on this cologne or maybe not ( haha ) and I hate Savage, lol. For me smell metallic 😣
Second video today. Nice video
Nope, this was the first. This is no. 3 ;)
th-cam.com/video/pF3pnIWIkIs/w-d-xo.html
You are incorrect david. Max Forti did first one.
I hate amboroxin bombs like Savauge just like you and I like this scent.
Good job,man!I love Montblanc house.Just got me a gift set of MB Emblem Intense for 34$ at Burlington.And now patiently waiting till Explorer hits discounters around 30$.
Looking interesting give it to me 😏
Ha! It’s a friends bottle sorry but, thanks for watching!
Try mercedes Benz select smells 90 percent creed
Bad quality fragance , last maybe 3 hours and project for maybe 30 minutes , but i agree that is close to aventus
Can't wait for this to hit fragranceX for$25-$30 so I can get a few bottles😈

why not just get club de nuit intense man its like 20$ or zara vibrant leather?
@@Mysteryboy0007 I have a few clones from Al haramain and DUA, but am getting bored. This and a few others add a unique twist.

Gaaaawd! I hate Aventus it creeps into everything I wish it would go away forever. Thanks for the review.

Looks like the played with the bottle design of Dunhill Icon

First
Armaf..club of nuit intense ......better...👍
Yeap... Another cheap ass clone of Aventus.
I smelled it today and it was like a turned down Prada carbon suvage mix. I won't be buying this one because I own carbon.
Nice smell but too expensive for a Montblanc brand. I will not buy it at this price even it is nice and smell like Aventus.
