I dislike the original AdG, always have because of the bitterness and strange orange synthetic note. The Essenza after one wear won me over, smooth opening, soft woodiness once it settles down....
Disturbingly bad.
This opens up obscure, smoky, spicy and what seems like an attempt of a jasmine flower note. I have smelt jasmine notes from higher end perfumery and this is utterly...
This is the first Montale fragrance that I've liked enough to merit purchasing a full bottle. I would like to wax poetic about this frag, but Darvant and others have pretty much captured it's...

to me the Dreamer smells "plasticky." not the worst smell ever, but annoys a bit. don't really get cough syrup out of it....you want cough syrup smell M7 cause that's what the one that reminds me of cough syrup.
It smells like D&G pour homme and Le Male mixed together. It's very powdery and sweet with a bit of tobacco. It has a sort of freshly cleaned linen smell. It smells amazing.

Bingo!!!!!u nailed it.That is exactly my thoughts.Though I like it better than both of them.
Can't pinpoint the smell, but it's not pleasant to me.
I agree, I thought it smelled awful! Infact I had a lucky escape with this - I was about to blind buy until a tester was produced just in the nick of time!

Agreed, I would also add that it´s like reaching ataraxia.
