Headshot bergamot

The composition opens on a flash of Italian bergamot, vivid as a gust of air at altitude, the fresh signature of the entire Explorer line.

Earthy heart: patchouli & vetiver

Then comes a dark, slightly cocoa-toned Indonesian patchouli, paired with a Haitian vetiver smokier than ever.This duo symbolizes the contrast between volcanic rock and tropical jungle that the adventurer crosses.

Leather-amber base: lasting adrenaline

The sillage explodes on a black leather accord sheathed in Ambrox®, reinforced by an amberwood note that extends its presence on skin for more than ten hours.

Bottle: extreme sobriety

“Extreme” design in textured leather

Explorer Extreme reprises the cylindrical silhouette of Explorer but dresses it in a black sheath embossed with the “Extreme” motif drawn from Montblanc leather goods.The glossy cap shines like the snow-capped peak of Mont Blanc, while the six-pointed star, the brand's emblem, sits atop the polished base.
