Loewe 7 Cobalt לעומת Explorer

The r/fragrance community views Loewe 7 Cobalt very positively as a high-quality blue fragrance with excellent longevity and versatility. While it's frequently compared to Bleu de Chanel and considered very similar, many users prefer its softer drydown and consider it an equally viable signature blue fragrance. It's praised as an underrated option that performs well across seasons and occasions.

The r/fragrance community views Montblanc Explorer as a solid, affordable alternative that shares the fresh citrus DNA of Aventus but is distinctly different, particularly in the drydown. While praised for value, consistency, and wearability, it's criticized for being overly linear and ambroxan-heavy compared to Aventus's complexity, making it a good standalone fragrance rather than a true clone.
