/ 10 community score
Black Walnut is regarded as a solid budget fragrance that delivers decent quality for its low price point, comparable to Mont Blanc Explorer. While the performance is underwhelming with weak longevity, the community appreciates it as an affordable daily wearer or backup fragrance that won't offend in any setting.

- Good Aventus/Mont Blanc Explorer clone
