30ml in the glass bottle with a dropper

Two or three spritzes sit close to skin

leaning towards comfort rather than projection

almost-creamy opening that sits closer to skin than projection

creamy mask that smells of caramel and amber — the kind you'd want to leave on longer than the instructions say

Mont Blanc Explorer Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray Ushuaia 30ml in the glass bottleCardamom and ambroxan in the opening, then the scent settles into something closer to a clean woody base than a fragrance like a high altitude air that's been warmed by skin. It's restrained, almost austere, which is exactly the point. Men's EDP, 100ml. Three sprays from the atomiser will carry you through a full day without announcement. Skip if you're after projection; this is a skin scent that rewards proximity over presence.
