I've been complimented for this 7 hours into wearing, which is just amazing, as the dry down is a basic sandalwood and vanilla, although the middle notes and the cinnamon are present throughout the entire time you are wearing it.

It's suitable for both casual and formal settings, and it's also suitable for both day and night wear. Protect your fragrance from direct sunlight and heat, otherwise it could alter the composition of the fragrance and escape. Sometimes fragrances can smell better after letting them sit because they are constantly being shaken when shipped which can alter the smell. I purchased a sample of this and let me say this: this is a very high quality, long lasting, heavy silage, fresh, clean fragrance.It’s definitely office friendly because it’s within a small bubble and doesn’t really project far at all but I smell it on my chest under shirt for 10-12 hours. Individuel is an amber woody fragrance for men, which was created by created by Pierre Bourdon and launched in 2003 by Montblanc. I get the famous “fabric softener” vibe, but also, come to my mind the smell from the “RASPBERRIES AND STRAWBERRIES” FIELDS. This scent boasts a rich blend of natural ingredients, creating a harmonious composition of oriental elements and warm woods, enlivened by spicy accords and aromatic herbs. It's a fragrance that's not too strong, but long-lasting enough to provide a light and pleasant scent throughout the day.

They are wanting an orange, but bite into an apple instead, and then complain that the apple didn't taste more like an orange. The top notes are quite harsh, so if you want to wear it to an event, do it about a couple hours in advance. Lasts quite a while, I sprayed it on me at 6pm one night and I woke up the next day at 9am and I could STILL get a good whiff of it.

I usually have no problem with synthetic aromachemicals but this one might be a little TOO artificial for me even. Montblanc invested so little in development that even a spellchecker to fix the now-famous "e instead of a" problem was too pricy. With this creation, Montblanc wanted to express its vision of masculine beauty and express its brand values, such as exclusivity, sobriety and sophistication. I get 10-12 hours duration on my skin, and 24+ hours on clothes, with good projection on the first 1-2 hours.

It opens with a captivating blend of Lavender, Cinnamon, and Fresh Pineapple, creating an initial impression that is both aromatic and subtly spicy. Smelling like that definitely isn't a bad thing (I don't think anyone minds smelling clean) but it's not really what I was looking for.I won't be running out to pick it up as it's just not very interesting to me, but I think it'd be a great entry-level fragrance for just about any age range. Top notes are rosemary, pineapple, coriander, cinnamon, lavender, juniper berries, mint, bergamot and cardamom; middle notes are orange blossom, violet, jasmine and geranium; base notes are sandalwood, amber, patchouli, musk, raspberry, vanilla, dark chocolate, oakmoss and vetiver. It's not bad at all but it just smells like laundry detergent mixed with scented antiperspirant with a hint of berry and a touch of chocolate. It's worth the shower gel vibe and the raspberry and lavender give that soupy touch but that's where it all ends!
