Montblanc Individuel Eau De Toilette for Men, 75 ml

Product Information

However, the opposition find this fragrance to be overtly synthetic and struggle to enjoy it. Many find it very cheap in this respect and a general disappointment. Following a linear dry-down, we next experience a heart of various notes including coriander, geranium as well as mint and rosemary. The interplay between the aromatics and floral notes are fresh and comforting. Base Notes Such a fragrance I a YouTuber Nachgekauft have, and immediately at the first sniff knew, "Hey wow,.... there's really something to it!!! The is really special!" I think it is a perfume suitable for everyday use for everyone who likes clean, fresh, but also delicious fragrances! One of the most polarising aspects of Individuel is found during testing with other people. There are two clear and distinctive camps with regards to this fragrance. The first consists of people who really like the fragrance. Furthermore, they find it comforting to wear and tend to liken it to fabric softener.

Paradoxically, it’s a fragrance that features particular notes that go well with the nighttime. Therefore, if you’re someone that works the night shift, this would be perfect! Either way, you could likely use this fragrance to suit your environment. I would think of Joop Homme now, which is also somewhat similar, but Joop Homme is much more striking for my taste. (Le Male Vibe) It smells much more like "broad masses", you immediately think "I know him yet.". And maybe a little youthful... Despite being a fragrance on a small budget, the bottle is very stylish. Its slim design fits comfortably in the hand with an understated yet elegant text in opposing corners of the facade. The cap can be difficult to remove at times, but it’s well-made and features the iconic Mont Blanc ice cap logo. An enormously popular fragrance among enthusiasts, Montblanc Individuel is often featured as an excellent affordable men’s cologne. However, how well will it stand up against the Bespoke Unit Fragrance Formula? So the name is 100% accurate for me. The flacon shapely, clear, and yet practical, - you just like to take him in hand!With a tableau of notes ranging from spicy to aromatic with a number of fruity notes on the way, Individuel is certainly a mixed bag. However, its overarching sandalwood accord, which we’ll talk about later, brings it into the woody family. Individuel opens up with a spicy cinnamon note, with just a hint of lavender and fruit behind it. The fragrance then dives head first into a creamy raspberry smell for the remainder of the fragrance. It's a fairly linear smell to my nose. It's very clean, fruity, and inoffensive. I blind bought this from a guy on Mercari who claimed this was "too formal" for him. With that first blast, this one is as far from formal as you can get. It's so fun! What a great start to my day. As it finds its footing on my skin chemistry, I notice the formality in the form of an interesting metallic note. In my opinion, the fragrance is accompanied throughout by an artificial nuance, which does not harm the overall work! I would say the raspberry plays a very central role, around which everything revolves. It is surrounded by sweet, floral, woody, and spicy notes, but there are so many and different that it is really hard for me to smell them out individually.

Released in 2003, Montblanc Individuel has been doing the rounds for some time now. It was developed by Pierre Bourdon, the nose of classics such as Davidoff Cool Water. And in sum smells Individuel somehow so typically masculine-Cologne artig, so it just feels very much like a confident, sexy signature fragrance. So I can assess the fragrance itself as positive throughout. But I find these obvious quality problems from batch to batch unspeakable. Smaller deviations are known. And so are reformulations. But I can't understand the fluctuations that are thrown at the market here. Can and should something like this be included in the overall evaluation? I think so. If I have to test three bottles to get "the right" scent, I don't understand anymore. Fruity and sweet and very raspberry. And yet there is also a minty freshness that distantly reminds me of Versaces Eros. There in combination with the apple, here with the raspberry. In terms of content, however, this works almost identically. In general, I see strong parallels to Eros in the whole style. As the fragrance progresses, it becomes more floral, but also more woody at the same time, before entering the vanilla-tonka base. The sweet fruity berry note lingers in a weakened form until the end. All in all, however, the course in practice seems much more linear than the list of ingredients would suggest. At first, Mont Blanc Individuel is a strong and unabashed fragrance. However, it soon dies down into the heart and leaves a relatively faint but noticeably sillage. However, it projects very well and should be applied sparingly.

Presentation and Value For Money

Opening on a fruity burst of juniper berries and pineapple, Mont Blanc takes an original approach in the head notes. This is then built up by layers of aromatic lavender and spicy cardamom. Heart Notes

However, I did not care anyway, because Individual smells more interesting for me, it just moves more in me. Even if it is something more chemical / artificial, - or maybe just because of it? But wait, on one of my laps around the office, I felt the same dirty honeyed metallic note. Don't get me wrong, I would NOT go so far as to list Sartorial in the "Reminds me of..." section of Individuel, but in that brief moment, there was a small similarity. Well, I noticed the following when testing the fragrance several times: it does not change - linear progression from the beginning to the end. In this respect, it’s not a particularly seductive fragrance but something that’s comfortable and reassuring to wear. So it would be unlikely used for formal or special occasions.I think he hit the nail on the head with this Montblanc Individuel lives up to its name, as I have - at least until now - never smelled a fragrance that goes in a similar direction.
