The composition is short. Violet leaf leads, and it should not be confused with the flower: this is the green, cool, faintly metallic smell of a cut stem, bracing rather than pretty, and it sets the tone for everything that follows. Clary sage comes next, dry and herbal with a slightly musty bitterness, holding the same cool line instead of warming it. Cedarwood is the finish, pale and dry with the clean smell of a sharpened pencil, and it gives the fragrance its only real body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree materials in total, so there is no second half to wait for. What you get is a clear, uncluttered scent that behaves predictably from the first spray to the last hour, helped along by the eau de parfum concentration, which keeps it detectable long after the projection has dropped away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat makes it useful rather than dramatic. Offices, daytime, mild and warm weather, and any situation at all where you would rather not be announced on arrival. It reads masculine and modern, and it is the sort of bottle that gets finished rather than admired. Bruno Jovanovic composed it. The set arrives boxed, which is why most people buy it in this form, and it saves the recipient from having to pick between sizes on their own account.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe house is German. Montblanc works out of Hamburg, made its name with fountain pens and writing instruments before moving into watches, and forms part of Richemont. Its fragrances are made by a licensee rather than by the company itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montblanc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53298406490439,"sku":"BTS352959","price":81.1,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/bts352959.webp?v=1770566175","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/montblanc-explorer-platinum-eau-de-parfum-gift-set-bts352959","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
