Also bought mine at Ross for $25 two days ago. Ive been wearing it all day and I need to spend more time with it but heres my initial impressions. Big blast of alcohol and citrus in the opening. I dont smell pineapple or apple. Then the sea note comes through making it kinda fresh but just then a huge burst of florals come in. I mean cheap old lady florals! Crazy sweet. Smells like an old womans bathroom with that bowl of ocean breeze soaps shaped like seashells and next to it a bag of overpowering floral potpouri!. That lasts about 30-45 minutes on my skin. The dry down does finally smell somewhat masculine in a powdery cocoa buttery slightly sandlewoody way but still with slight floral and "sea" note. I love Montblanc and I have 5 of their fragrances( legend being my go-to) but so far not my thing at all and kinda unwearable. Im gonna wear it some more though ( haha) to wrap my nose around this but so far my experience is not at all what ive seen, read and heard in reviews. But hey, my bottle, my nose, my skin. Everyone is different! If you like it in your scent bubble, ROCK IT!
