Montblanc Explorer Ultra Blue Eau de Parfum 200ml is the 2021 aquatic-aromatic flanker to the brand's flagship men's Explorer line. The composition pairs Sicilian bergamot, pink pepper and exotic fruits at the top with a sea-and-ambergris heart and a woody, leather-tinted base — a clean, modern men's signature with a slightly atmospheric, oceanic character. The 200ml format makes it the largest of the Explorer Ultra Blue bottles and a generous everyday flacon.

The story behind Explorer Ultra Blue
Where the original Explorer was conceived around the spirit of land travel — leather, bergamot and patchouli evoking an explorer's notebook — Explorer Ultra Blue takes the same brief into more atmospheric, oceanic territory. The bergamot-and-pink-pepper opening reads bright and slightly mineral; the sea-and-ambergris heart adds a salty, breezy character; and the woody-leather base keeps the composition grounded. The bottle takes the recognisable Explorer silhouette in a bright, denim-blue tinted glass.
Who it's for
Explorer Ultra Blue suits men who like fresh, woody-aquatic men's fragrances with a clean, modern character — wearers of Bleu de Chanel, Dior Sauvage, or Yves Saint Laurent Y, who want a more affordable alternative. Versatile across spring, summer and cooler autumn days; works in office, dinner and date-night contexts.
How to wear it
- Spray onto pulse points — chest, sides of the neck, inside of the wrists — from around 15cm.
